When my parents call, you never know what kind of silliness will ensue. Take the call that came today as Chris was in the shower and the kids watched The Lord of the Rings:
Karenna: Hi Pop-Pop. We're watching Lord of the Rings. Frodo's in it and some elves, and some wizards.
Pop-Pop: Who else is in that movie?
Jude: And there are Orcs and a Balrog!
Pop-Pop: Who's the naked guy?
Karenna: Daddy.
Pop-Pop (laughing): No. I mean the one who wants to steal the ring.
