Me: So, did you think Jaws was a good movie? (Yes, we showed the girls Jaws last night. No, Bassie did not have a nightmare about man-eating sharks like she claimed she would. Phew!)
Bassie: Yes.
Me: As good as Star Wars?
Bassie: Yes.
Me: As good as 2001: A Space Odyssey?
Bassie: Yes.
Me: As good as Lawrence of Arabia?
Bassie: (pauses) Well…
Me: I guess they’re really different kinds of movies, huh?
Bassie: Y:es, because in Jaws land is mostly scarce, but in Lawrence of Arabia water is mostly scarce.
Me: You just blew my mind.
Bassie: (dismissively) Yeah yeah…
