It's All In The Eyes
(Starjack is walking through the living room when she spots Dad, wearing his sunglasses inside. He is reading a magazine.)
Starjack: Why are you wearing your sunglasses inside?
Dad: Oh, that would explain it. (Removes sunglasses and replaces them with reading glasses.)
It's all in the eyes, people.

A Matter Of Perspective
In sparring today, Talkative Yellow Belt Student and I were doing a drill and we finished early.
Talkative Yellow Belt: Senpai, should we keep going?
Sparring Teacher: No, just wait and talk about the weather.
Starjack: It's hot. (Note: this is always the case in Furnaceville).
Talkative Yellow Belt: Yes, but it's cooler than yesterday.
Starjack: It's still hot.
Talkative Yellow Belt (fixing gi pants): Yes, but it's thirteen degrees cooler than yesterday. See, I look on the positive side.
Sparring Teacher: See? We've got two different perspectives on the same weather.
