Let me guess: he made an airplane out of paper which attracts and captures those buzzing insects known as flies.

At his age and in his environment he would not be expected to know what fly paper is. I didn’t know until I was about 7.

For someone who is suppose to be a genuis Jason can be such an idiot.

@ K.C.F. Well, I guess I’m not like most … or I’m not genies enough. That’s it: those ridiculous IQ tests I tried. The high scores fooled me. Not that my patent, or my building and flying airplanes indicates intelligence.Anyway, I think I have more sense than most, if not all, politicians. And no, I won’t lock myself in a convertible.Oh, and, yes, Jason certainly has his lapses. Hmm. After some self reflection, I’ll admit even geniuses can slip.

Most somewhat affluent folks have screen doors, etc. I like to use the old fashion fly swatter. A twisted towel :-)

It’s used to CATCH flies, Jason. But you do get an “A” for effort.

Oops. Thanks, N-G49. There’s another of my slips. And I’m sure those scores were inflated. I wouldn’t score well on being aware or alert, would I?

There’s a difference between being smart and being wise.
