Our Little Deity

John and Mary were playing swords (with sticks) outdoors when John shouted, "I am God!"

"You are what?"

"I am God!"

"Um, I don't think so. What do you mean, that you're God?"

"That is what sword fighters say before they start fighting. 'I am God!'"

"Oh, honey, you mean en garde! That is a French phrase. It means, 'be on guard, be ready!'"

  4. Sarah Faith: No, he didn't seem embarrassed. I taught him how to say 'en garde' and he promptly got it, using a really hard R: 'en garrrrrrde!'
