Quotes From Elway's World - Pirates & Dinosaurs

We are looking at a book on Pirates that has 100 facts. One of these facts is that pirates still exist.

Elway: How can Pirates still be alive Mommy?
Me: They just are, Bear. There are still people sailing around on boats that steal from people and that's what a pirate is.
Elway: I'm scared..
Me: You don't have to be scared... we don't live where there are pirates. They live on the other side of the world almost.
Elway: What about dinosaurs?
Me: Don't worry, Buddy. There are no more dinosaurs in the whole world.
Elway: What do you mean the whole world.
Me: The entire world , Bear, there isn't any dinosaurs anywhere in it.
Elway: Why not?
Me: They are extinct.
Elway: Extinct?
Me: Yes, it means all gone. remember in your book... "they all disappeared in a geologic wink"
Elway: Maybe they fell in the hole.

Believe it or not I saw this one coming

Me: No no Honey. There is no 'hole'... whole like the pizza and the pieces... put them all together and you get one whole pizza. Remember?
Elway: Oh. Where did they go then?
Me: They're just gone bear. The scientists aren't 100% sure how exactly.
Elway: Maybe they DID fall through a hole in the world then!!
Me: Elway.. listen to me. There is no hole in the world.
Elway: Maybe the hole is in Elway's World Mommy... we should tell the scientists!
Me: OK Bear. I'll tell them.
Elway: I'll find your phone mommy.
