NPR's newest listener

Normally Cora doesn't pay too much attention to what is on the car radio. It's usually either NPR (and therefore talk) or a sports game on the a.m. station.

But yesterday morning on the way to school, the car conversation hit a lull and Cora must have been tuning in to the NPR coverage of President Obama's energy address because he used the phrase "gas spikes" and all of the sudden, out of the back seat you hear, "Gas spikes! He said gas spikes! That's silly..."

Coleman and I just burst out laughing. I have no idea why that particular phrase grabbed her or why she thought it was amusing, but it's good to know that she can now follow political affairs...or at least the ones that sound funny.
