A little literalism

Jamie got some new books at the library today, one of which is about different kinds of boats. He asked questions, as always, about them. As always he wasn't totally satisfied with all my answers. He asked for instance what the ferryboat does. I said it carries cars and people across the water. He added, "and fairies."

Then we got to the warship. He looked confused, and asked, "Does it carry...wa..wa..wars?" Not to wax political here too much, but gotta love that he has no idea what a warship is.
