McGruff the Crime... Huh?

Yesterday at school, McGruff the Crime Dog came to talk to the kids about safety. So, I asked Molly about this on the way home.

Me: "So, Molly, what did McGruff talk to you about today?"
Molly: "McGruff wasn't there... the man was there."
Me: "What man?"
Molly: "THE man. McGruff was walking around the neighborhood."
Me: "What did the man tell you?"
Molly: "What McGruff was going to say."
Me: "Yes, but what did he tell you?"
Molly: "What McGruff was going to say."

(After another 5 minutes of this "Waiting for Godot" moment, I moved on.)

Me: "So did the man give you any safety tips?"
Molly: "Yes."
Me: "What kind of tips did he give you?"
Molly: "He taught us how to be safe from sharks."
Me: "Sharks?"
Molly: "Uh-huh, sharks."

So, while we still need to learn about Stranger Danger, we are covered on safety with sharks. I guess you really can never be too careful...
