My 8 year-old nephew Mikey recently visited the Hirschorn Museum in Washington D.C. with his class to see a modern art exhibit. This is an excerpt of his conversation with my brother Doug after he picked him up from school that day:
Doug: How was the museum trip?
Mikey: GREAT!
D: Which artists' work did you see?
M: Lots. Pablo Picasso, Mary Cassat, and Jackson Pollack, who slides around painting with his butt.
D: Which was your favorite?
M: Andy Warthog
D: Did you see anything else while you were downtown?
M: Yeah, we went to the FDR memorial, which was really cool.
D: Do you know who FDR was?
M: Yes, Dad, of course I do. He was a President.
D: Do you know what FDR stands for?
M: Of course I do. His name. Franklin Delaware Rosenfeld.
