So my son, who is officially a teenager now, and he has this thing that he does that's just

absolutely driving this crazy where he'll ask a question and the moment you start to answer,

he'll say, I know! It is so, it's insane. Did you? Like, what was the movie Alien about?

Oh, well, so there's this group of people and they're trapped on a spaceship and I know!

What's he looking for?

Well, then why are you asking?

Well, I just mean, like what's it about?

He's like, well, okay, like I was saying, I mean, they're on this in the spaceship

and there's this alien. I know. So he's been listening to a lot of Nirvana lately, which I fully

approve. He's just discovered them. And another thing he's really obsessed with is like whether

or not someone is still alive, even if it's someone who like from a band from like this year, he'll say,

are they alive?

Are they still alive?

So knowing that he always wants to know of somebody, because I think maybe he just assumes

everyone that I must love.

Yeah, they're old.

They're from ancient times.

They're old and gone.
