Neilisms

Just this morning Neil took a drink, then he turns to us and says, "I wish water had less flavor."  The responses?  "That's like wishing that a Hershey bar had more chocolate!  Or that the ghost pepper was spicier!  Or that air had less color!"
Neil also told us today that he went outside when it was 93 degrees and it felt cold, because his body temperature is 98.6.  Next time you meet a kid who thinks he feels cold in sweltering hot weather and humidity, let me know.  Then we can possibly figure out where Neil came from.
Also on Friday my mom and I went to see a play at a dinner theater.  When the waitress came to give us our check, she laid an empty tray on our table, then informed us that the gentleman at the table behind us had paid for our dessert.  I was incredibly taken and touched by this.  This man clearly had people on his radar other than himself.  Just one more instance to prove that not only Boy Scouts can and should do a good turn daily :)
