Dan Rather of CBS news was seated next to little
Tommy on the plane when Rather turned to the boy
and said, "Let's talk, I've heard that flights go
quicker if you strike up a conversation with your
fellow passengers".

Little Tommy, who had just opened his book, closed
it slowly, and said to Rather, "What would you like
to discuss?"

"Oh, I don't know" said Rather, "How about politics?
Should we keep Bush as president or elect Kerry?"

"OK" said Little Tommy, "That could be an
interesting topic but let me ask you a question
first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat grass.
The same stuff. Yet a deer excretes little pellets,
while a cow turns out flat pattys, and a horse
excretes clumps of dried grass. Why do you think
that is?"

"Jeez" said Rather, "I have no idea."

"Well then" said Little Tommy, "How is it you feel
qualified to discuss who should run this country
when you don't know s* * t?"
