CONVERSATION WITH AN 8 YR OLD AFTER THE WORLD CUP

After watching the replay of the World Cup, Husband and I are literally sick to our stomachs over the loss. As the medal ceremony begins this occurs....

Stephen III: Awww, the USA looks sad.

Me: It's because they are.

Stephen III: I hate Japan... We did good at that nuclear bombing of them...

Me & Stephen: (horrified stares... speachless...)
