On our way to school, I was 
quizzing J on his science test he has today, reinforcing that if he finishes a test early, that he spend the extra time to look it over again.  Check his spelling, look for 
punctuation, etc.  Then he says "That's what Grandpa Vonny always says."  Me: "He does?"  J:  "Yeah, like when you go to a Japanese restaurant, you eat Japanese food.  Or you go to an Italian restaurant, you eat Italian food.  You don't eat just macaroni and cheese."  Me: Silence for a beat,   "Am I missing something?  What does eating in a 
restaurant have to do with test taking?"  J:  "I don't know, but Grandpa always says that."  Ah...okay.  At least he is listening to something.
