Perfect Logic

Kindergarten teacher:  Class, today we're going to draw pictures of our principal!  5-year-old Erin stares at the blank sheet of paper.  Erin's thought process:  What does a principal look like?  She said his name is Mr. Black.  Spiders are black...  The teacher considers the final drawing.  Teacher:  It's... beautiful.  I'm sure he'll love it.

 Yes, this is a true story.  A rare glimpse into the exact thought process of a five-year-old.

Temporary Pet

Mel (walking through the door):  So, um, this little guy was hanging around our door...  An orange cat follows her inside.  Pearl and Carmine:  Kitty!  Carmine:  You're such a pretty boy, yes you are!  Pearl:  Can we keep him?  Mel talks on her cell phone, then hangs up.  Mel:  Okay, the apartment manager says he can stay until we find his owners. Pearl and Carmine (hugging the cat): Yay! Pearl:  You just want to eat him, don't you? Carmine:  You know, I actually don't!

 Being a vampire means having to clarify things people normally don't need to clarify.
