Yes the topic is Mikey. He was running around in the yard today, and said, "Let's Go!"
I said, "Where do you want to go, Mikey?"
He responded, "Ride the subway."
"And where are you going to ride to?"
"Balloon ride," he replied.
We often figure out later what Electric-Company-esque rationale exists with these notions, but I'm stumped right now ....

Football!
Background: I am from the Pittsburgh (PA) area. You Know What That Means, at least when it comes to football ...
Neither of the boys is big on sports. David takes karate lessons; neither of them is into any kind of ball sport; they do like to hike.
I am (see "Background") a Steelers fan. They boys were over the Saturday and Sunday of the last two playoff series games. I have a Terrible Towel, and made David wave it and yell, "Yea Steelers." (Also had to explain some of the game to him - no snickering at me, Siblings!!).
At the end of the evening (after the win over the Jets), David was on the phone with his mother, letting her know we were about to come home. She must have asked about the game; David said the Steelers had won. AND THEN he said:
Go, David! Grandma has succeeded in educating you well.

THE STEELERS ARE THE ONLY REASON I WATCH FOOTBALL.
