The backstory: JT is playing outside, running about with sticks and deeply involved with some sort of game. He comes inside to ask me a question.
JT: Mama, is Greece a country?
Mama: Yes. Why do you ask?
JT: Because France and England need someone to invade and I think they should invade Greece. They already conquered Italy.
Mama: Well I'm sure that Greece is sorry to hear that. Carry on with your invasion, son.
The kid has lived too long in George W. Bush's America. It's a good thing that has changed.
I approve of this life-size version of Diplomacy. "JT moves one army from the Ionian Sea to attack Greece."
ReplyDeleteSmart kid. It's about time someone invaded Greece. :)
ReplyDeleteIf he invades Greece would he be able to see more than Russia from the front yard?

ReplyDeletehmm. I just realized I missed your tree on the 1st.
