Overheard by M today on the bus home.
Young Lad (approx 21) to two youngsters, (about 12)
YL - Guess what I'm doing next summer. It begins with an L.
2Y - Dunno. Is it some sport?
YL - Yeah sort of, I'm going to the Lympics!
1 of 2Y - It don't start with an L! It isn't the Lympics. It's the Alympics, it starts with an A!!!
M decided not to try and correct them, it seemed like rather too much energy for too little gain.
And that, my friend, is just one reason why we're in the state we are.
