Subject: RE: BS: The things kids say
My sister, as a toddler, was unsure of the difference betweeen a ship and a boat, so hedged her bets by calling all vessels 'Shipboats.'
The way she pronounced it caused some strange looks.

Her indoors once said to our son "Don't even think about it!"
"Too late, I've already thought about it."
