Virtually Incomprehensible to the Uninformed

[billroper]

After the last few nights when Katie fell asleep like a log, tonight's bedtime was more adventuresome. On the fifth or so intervention, I went into her room to find out what was wrong and was told quite earnestly that "Jet take rocket soup." Now, daisy_knotwise had been explaining to Katie that she was hearing jets from O'Hare. But what this had to do with rocket soup (jet fuel maybe?) was a mystery to me.

Until Gretchen explained that there's a character named Rocket in Little Einstein's and that they'd brought him soup on a jet.

Right. "Jet take Rocket soup."

Well, that makes more sense.

No, No. Rocket was taking the rocket soup to his sick grandmother and the bad jet was trying to steal it.

Our 8YO also likes the Little Einsteins. Our 11YO tolerates them.

I guess that this is a heads up on that front.

The dialogue is one of the best parts. And they continue to stay interesting. Mine just explained to me that he had cast a delayed raise zombie spell on all the pumpkins and squash on our front stoop. If I want to control them salt will work better than silver. Thanks, Simon!

I look forward to reading more about what Katie and Julie have to say. :-)
