 >    beautiful place to call home you have there. I've never seen the ocean.

  lol!  Reminds me of a conversation I had with my daughter a few years ago.  I
think she might have been, I dunno, 6?  

  "Dad, are you going to take me to see the ocean some day?"

  "Sure, honey."

  "Sharks live in the ocean, right, Dad?"  (She's an animal nut, all
descriptions, very very fascinated with nature, so not at all an unusual
question.)

  "Yep.  Sure do."

  *pauses a moment*  "So why you gonna take me there?"

  I had no idea what to say.  The deadpan was perfect (and innocent) and I just
laughed my ass off.
