Sunday's Quotes

Anytime all five of us ride in the same car, there is sure to be quotes and last night was no exception.   But first, we have a quote from dinner with the Bores kids.

Me:  Katie, do you take Singulair (allergy medication).
Christian:  (From the other end of the table)  No we have AT&T.

This is the gist of the car conversation.  Our power was out so we were talking about electricity.

AJ:  I hope the power's back on because I have studying to do.
Me:  You know they didn't have electricity in the 19th century and kids went to school then.
Autumn:  Mom, they went to school during the DAY.
(Good point.)
AJ:  Well not if they lived on one of those continents where it is dark all the time.  Which continent does that?
Autumn:  Alaska.
AJ:  Autumn, Alaska is a STATE.  I said CONTINENT.
Alex:  The north pole and south pole.
AJ:  Alex I said continent.  CON-TIN-ENT.
Me:  Ok well Antarctica and the extreme northern parts of North America and Europe.
AJ:  Mom, isn't that Canada?
Me:  Canada's not a CON-TIN-ENT.
