better than TV

At this evening's socialist soiree, the following conversation took place between Allen, age 56, and Max, age 4. (Max is Shawnee & Joel's kid, for those of you who know them)(Allen's surprisingly great with kids, for those of you who know him).

Allen: Hey, Max, your face is all scratched—what happened?

Max: I got in a fight at daycare.

Allen: Uh-oh! With who?

Max: With Dylan.

Allen: Dylan, huh?

Max (sadly): Yeah. We had to leave the sandbox.

Allen: Ohhhh.

Max: Carl had to leave the sandbox too.

Allen: Why? Did Carl fight?

Max: No, Carl doesn't fight. He's a good boy.

Allen: Wait a minute, let me get this straight—Carl doesn't fight and that makes him a good boy. You do fight.... so what does that make you?

Max (in all seriousness & without missing a beat): Obi Wan Kenobi.
