My kids are suckers for advertising. They memorize all the ads and jingles from TV and the radio. Then they relate them to life in all kinds of ways. When M was small she was sitting in the car with Grandma, stuck in traffic. Grandma said, "It looks like we're gonna be awhile." M answered, "We should have a Snickers." At the time, that was the catch phrase for Snickers.
Today we went down to the Big City to do some shopping. Mr. C wanted to go to Dick's Sporting Goods. I asked him what he wanted to look at. He answered he didn't know. I told him we usually just go to stores with a purpose, in order to look at something specific. He replied, "It's like Ancestry.com. You don't have to know what you're looking for. You just have to look."
