cheerios and chickens

Grant was reviewing a tractor magazine today* and announced to me that when he grows up he is going to build combines.

Superb!! Great I thought! A Mechanical Engineering degree or Agricultural Engineering degree should do the trick. He should have enough money to put me in a nice retirement home or send me on lots of trips to keep me out of his hair.

I then asked Stella what she was going to build when she grows up. Stella thought for a minute.

"I'm gonna build Mermaids!!".

sigh...

damn...

It is now that I remember that I have a girly girl.

Just what the heck kind of school do you attend for Mermaid Construction Science?

AND how well does it pay?
