Conversations with Chandler

My twelve year old son wants to be an inventor, and yes, the world should tremble in fear.

Lately he's been obsessed with video games.  He's convinced he can build a virtual reality helmet.  So he asked me, "Dad, what should a virtual reality helmet do?"

I replied, "Things generally are supposed to do what they're named to do.  Like a hammer.  A hammer, well, hammers things.  A virtual reality helmet should make virtual reality happen."

"Okay."

"Don't get me started on why some things are mis-named.  Like crash helmets..."

I will talk to Chris about investing in this virtual reality helmet you speak of. Chandler may be one rich puppy someday.

Sherry and I realize we're very fortunate to have him. :)

One day, we could all be rich. If we survive the process.
