ART AND ANN AND ABBY

Linkletter, Landers, and Van Buren. They asked questions; they had answers.

Kids are the ones that crack me up. Three cases in point and if you don't find all 3 funny, then add doddering to TQ. I'm really not sure what doddering is, and I don't think any of the aforementioned are living, so whom do I ask?

On a recent walk through the Dallas-Forth Worth Airport with our 7 -year old grandson, he spotted a woman wearing the burka. In all seriousness, he said to his 9- year old brother, "Look, Grant, a woman ninja." We kept walking.

After I got them to San Diego for an all- too brief vacation with us, we were walking on the streets in Coronado when we stopped to talk to the Stegway man and pet this dog. "How much to rent one?" he asked.

When told $50 for the whole day, his eyes widened and he reiterated, "fifty dollars!!"

"Does that seem like a lot of money?"

Nathan's response as he looked at me, "Not for us."

"That's what I like to hear," the renter responded. Needless to say, we petted the dog and walked, not Stegwayed away.

My wife's niece when very young was observant. Back in the day before little ones were confined to the backseat, she saw a bad driver pull out in front of her dad.

"Horn him," she yelled, meaning to honk the horn at him. It's now become one of those family expressions that we use when encountering bad drivers.

Feel free to use it or the other two I wrote about. We can expand our family when it comes to good stories.

Did you laugh at least at one?
