"Are you sure he's a grown-up?"

After a breakfast of green chile, eggs, potatoes and multiple cups of coffee, I was sitting at the kitchen counter subjected a friend's 11-year-old son to a Benzian stream of unconsiousness. He looked at me, bufuddled, then turned to the other adults in the room, and asked:

"Are you sure he's a grown-up?"

Everyone laughed, but no one came to my defense.

"bob is so great, bob is so great...",

"you should start a saxaphone-based heavy metal band..."

Hmm. I guess there is a pattern of behavior here.

No one came to your defense? Does this mean you WANT to be known as a grown-up? I say grow older, but not up.
