The night before last, I slept with Violet in her bed because I miss her so much!
She said, "What would happen if we didn't have space?"
I said, "I'm not sure. I think maybe all the people would float off the Earth because there wouldn't be any gravity."
She said, "It would be like swimming."
I said, "Maybe so."
Vi then asks..."What is below space?"
"I guess just more space, " I answered. (I promise I took Physics and Astronomy...just a tad rusty.)
"What's below that?"
"More space."
"What's below that?"
"More space."
"What's below that?" asks my tenacious kid.
"I don't know. I think it might be infinite."
Violet then says emphatically..."I know. I know. We'd fall onto a gas station."

And there you have it.


-----John was with Violet all today. I came home to Violet in a Zoro mask singing Bungalo Bill as she and John played it on the piano. She sang very loudly, "ALL THE CHILDREN SING....Hey, Bungalo Bill, what did you kill? Bungalo Bill."

Earlier today there was a big storm. John was going to get the mail and Violet said, "People shouldn't be going out and about."
