Cosmology Going on Seven

While riding in the back of a rental car this weekend, my nephew, Thing 1, shared his philosophy with me.

According to Thing 1, the galaxy holds all the worlds. Europe is a real place, even though it isn't a world. Dinosaurs didn't survive, but sharks did.

Thing 1 seems pretty comfortable with the universe, however, many questions remain. What is the difference between being brave and being stupid? How can motorcycle riding be stupid and cool at the same time? What is the stupidest thing in the world? How small is God, and how big? Did God make everything, or did managers? Then, there is THE question that has plagued the human race since the dawn of thought...

What is stronger, the thumb, forty-five tentacles, or the giant claw?

My money's on the tentacles.
