Jes

Don't remember how this got started, but we now play a game with my grandsons, Charlie and Zach, that goes like this. When you are asked a question, you substitute "jes" for "yes". They are quick to remind you, "No, you got to say "yes", Papa. Sometimes they can be totally preoccupied - "zoned-out" - and you can say "jes" out of the blue, and they will immediately pounce on it. "No, you got to say "yes". I guess that is how we multi-task. We do one thing at a subliminal or subconscious level and one or two others at a conscious level. Amazing thing, that brain of ours.
