My favorite nephew X2 sees his classmate’s car beside ours on a stop-signal traffic and points to me Judyn (the classmate) who’s inside the car. And so we talk a bit of Judyn living in the same part of town as we do until I got into asking X2 Judyn’s family name. The boy said Ferrer. I had to stop myself from laughing and with a straight face told my nephew X2 to ask Judyn if his father’s name was Tony, as in Tony Ferrer! The ever witty X2 snaps back at me and says – Tony Stark?!

Funny but this has happened before. Back in the 90s, my then 5 year old honorary brother Gringo had twin friends named Peter and Paul. I used to tease him “I bet your friends have a sister named Mary” (referring to the 60’s musical trio). He got so confused but somehow was able to snap back at me and said “Yeah, and Jesus and Joseph, too!”
