Lots

Whenever I think of the past, it brings back so many memories.
~ Steven Wright

Me: Isaac Asimov wrote I, Robot.

Leslie: I know.

Me: And The Fountainhead.

Leslie: No. That was Ayn Rand.

Me: Um. I mean, The Foundation. He wrote a lot of things.

Leslie: Like Dolly Parton.

Me: She didn't write science fiction.

Leslie: No. Songs. She wrote a lot of SONGS.

Me: (thinking snarkily to myself, but not daring to speak these words aloud) Sure, Leslie. Sure, you meant songs not science fiction. Whatever.


Leslie knows a lot of things, but she doesn't know all the things.
