Our first grandsons first word was "please." (His second was Caca, but we won't to there). But he is now nine, and lives in Central CA, where we have unfortunately been hanging out for the last three weeks or so, and he doesn't say that very often anymore. We have been in enough stores here, putting up with the purely crappy attitude of the locals, that I have considered going postal many times (I used to think that cops, and retired cops, should be allowed one free kill a year, no questions asked). In the last few years we have been in other states where this does not seem to be the prevalent attitude, so we have to believe that behavior is dependent upon location...
