Son 2 in a nutshell, take 2

A couple of years ago, I compared Son 2 to Linus van Pelt, from "Peanuts." Sometimes it scares me a little how apt the comparison still is.



To be fair, he's in middle school and neither sucks his thumb nor carries a blanket. But the rejoinder out of thin air ... and its severity, and its preposterousness ... all these are spot on.

As I say, sometimes it scares me just a little.
