Just after the lights are turned out at night, Hot Wheels (like many of us) always comes up with his meaning-of-life questions. Sometimes the questions are heavy, but mostly they revolve around cars and his obsession with racing games on the computer and iPhone. A couple of nights ago, Tom told me they had this exchange:
HW: “Daddy, how come booster power goes to 10?”
T: “Because that’s as high as it goes.”
HW: “Why doesn’t it go to 11?”
