Notes -
Back whenever I was in grade school, I remember an afternoon where, bored to utter tears and waiting for my mother to finish up her work, was rummaging through all the various random items in her car.
As one does.
I then stumbled across a random package, and upon opening it via zipper, discovered what appeared to be a loaded pistol.
Keep in mind, I had never been exposed to guns, never had 'the talk', had never actually shot a pistol/rifle as of yet.
Despite all of this, my initial reaction was 'Oh, that's a gun, that's dangerous', promptly put it away, and never touched the damn thing again.
I don't think I fall on the far end of the bell curve when it comes to intelligence, certainly not as a child, but maybe we need to start thinking that they aren't complete imbeciles when it comes to certain things, either.
Or maybe I'm just a weird duck, I dunno.
