BRITTANY (age 4) had an ear ache and wanted a pain killer. She tried in vain to take the lid off the bottle. Seeing her frustration, her Mom explained it was a child-proof cap and she'd have to open it for her. Eyes wide with wonder, the little girl asked: “How does it know it's me?”

MARC (age 4) was engrossed in a young couple that were hugging and kissing in a restaurant. Without taking his eyes off them, he asked his dad: “Why is he whispering in her mouth?”

JAMES (age 4) was listening to a bible story. His dad read: “The man named Lot was warned to take his wife and flee out of the city but his wife looked back and was turned to salt.” Concerned, James asked: “What happened to the flea?”

  2. There's an interchange in Oakland that could rival that one and it's a bit of a panic attack trying to get on the right ramp to a new address. No not that not that and then this one time I found myself going back over the Bay, paying the toll, and into San Francisco whether I wanted to or not.
