features two of my grandsons.
Davis, age 11, has built a computer, using parts purchased with money he saved for the purpose. He told me it is the best computer in their house now, and I believe him. He told me several other things about it, but I did not have enough knowledge to understand him.
Last time I visited down there in Texas, he was making movies on the computer and quite frustrated by its limitations. So he has built his own and is saving money so he can buy an operating system. I'd like to help him.
Charlie, age 3 1/2. Two things:
1. Last week, on a day that happened to be lovely, one the likes of which we hadn't seen much, I said, "It's a beautiful day." Charlie said, "Isn't it though, Grandma."
2. I have an old violin in my basement. It's not a bad instrument, but it has been neglected and suffers from a missing string and a worn out bow. However, Charlie loves it, and when he comes over always asks if he can play the violin. It's too large for him, but someone usually helps him. So yesterday his mother told me Charlie is saving his money for, "Guess what." I said a violin. She said, "No. Tell her, Charlie." He said, "A cello."

I heard the following sentence last week from one of your grandsons that lives at my house (and it is funnier without context): "My arm is not a dog's penis!"
I don't know. Context might help. Did you see the AFV video of the trained dog who, among many other tricks, responds to the question, "Where's your penis?" by reaching his head around and pointing his nose at his penis?
