Quotes of the day

1) We went to the aquarium today (along with the rest of San Francisco, because the rain was pouring down and it was cold), and when the elevator doors opened, Daisy exclaimed, "Uncle Dave lives here!" This is because we once saw her "Uncle Dave" give a dive show in one of the big tanks. Daisy had never seen scuba diving before and was intrigued by it, though she focused on some mundane details (she kept telling me afterward, "Uncle Dave got his beard wet!" and "He had to take a shower" when he was done). I had no idea she thought he *lived* in the aquarium, but it makes sense.

2) On the ride home we were listening to her beloved Harry Belafonte CD and there was some lyric about "saving" someone. Daisy said solemnly from the back seat, "Harry Belafonte doesn't save me. Harry Belafonte doesn't like Daisy." I wonder where she could get such an idea??

Maybe she overheard me telling the story of flying on a plane with Harry Belafonte in 1957. He did nothing to help us with all the throwing up we were doing as our plane hit air pockets landing in Denver. M.B.
