Charlie is funny.

Charlie – age 7 – was arguing that two is a large number.

“No, it’s not,” his big sister Clara shot back.

I was going to counter with several examples. I’ve actually written a children’s picture book entitled “Two Is A Lot,” and it’s outstanding. In fact, it would be universally beloved IF I COULD FORCE A PUBLISHER OPEN ITS DAMN EYES, so I have plenty of examples at the ready, but Charlie instead countered with this:

“Yes, it is. Two is huge. Watch.”

He paused for a moment, smiled, and then started counting:

“One…. 32 years later … two…”

He smiled again. “See?”

Charlie is a legitimately funny kid and places enormous value on humor, but this might be his first legitimately hilarious, original joke.
