I'm having a conversation with Ellen just a minute ago about DNA, and about cloning, and of course that leads into talking about Jurrasic Park. I say to Kim:
Paul: What a perfect segue.Ellen breaks up in peals of laughter.
Ellen: What's a segue?
P: It's switching from one topic to another.
KIm: A transition. Do you know what a transition is?
E: Is it like transportation?
P: not exactly, but the trans part does mean changing from one thing to another. (Over my shoulder to Kim: Like transubstatiation...)
E: What's transpistaciation?
P: That's when you change a God into a Peanut.
one of my great joys is to see ellen's love of language. i can't imagine from whence that came.
