Jarrah and drove around on Friday trying to find waterproof clothing for our trip to the snow (which, in February in San Diego, is a fool's errand) so we spent a lot of time in the car. One of the radio stations was having a "Founding Fathers of Rock" weekend to go with President's Day(s.) I explained to Jarrah that this was the reason we were hearing so many great songs in a row.

Sam: This can be the beginning of your music education.

Jarrah: What music education?

Sam: Well, I figure you gotta choose: you can know the words to every song in the world like your mommy, or you can be like your father and not recognize any songs at all.

Jarrah: Hmmm. I think I'll do both.

Sam: Oh?

Jarrah: Yeah, I can listen to songs with you, and I can listen to the radio with Daddy.

Sam: Oh, and by radio, you mean all the talking, right?

Jarrah: Right. Stories.

Sam: And what are these stories about?

Jarrah: (smiling) Dead people!

Sam: Oh, dear. And you enjoy these stories about dead people?

Jarrah: (smiling more) Yeaaaaaaah.
