Two young boys walked into a chemists one day, picked up a box of tampons and walked up to the counter.
The pharmacist asked the older boy 'son how old are you?'
'Eight' the boy replied
The man continued,'do you know what these are used for'?
The boy replied 'Not exactly. They're not for me, they're for him, he's my brother, he's four'.
'Oh really' the pharmacist replied with a grin
'Yes' the boy said. 'We saw on TV that if you use these you can swim, ride a bike and play tennis. Right now he can't do none of those.'

That reminds me of when my lad was about 6 and well into the Army stuff. He learned about survival skills, and lighting fires without matches was just one of them. One day whilst camping in Wales we went shopping and I bought him one of those Army firelighter things that you strike on some flint and then he asked me to get some Tampax..................WELL, the shock on my face. "What do you need those for" I said. "They're good for starting fires with because, when you rip them open they are full of dry cotton wool". I could see the logic and so bought some. For all the 6 weeks of the holidays he was so proud wearing his camo gear and of his new firelighter and Tampon hanging round his neck along with his dog tags. I wish I'd have taken a photo then.
