EPISODE 73.                           IS IT TOO EARLY TO LEARN? 

Is it too early to be learning things? 

I am walking a little and I am talking a little. 

But that doesn’t mean that my brain isn’t soaking things in. 

Like Grandpa says” just because I don’t talk much doesn’t mean that 

I am not paying attention.” 

.

I love learning new things. 

It seems that if I am learning, then the things must be new. 

So, is that being repetitively redundant? 

The bigger question is when are we too young or too old to learn something? 

.

Is 60 too old to learn a new language? 

I don’t think so. 

.

Is 70 too old to learn how to use a use a new cell phone? 

Maybe. 

.

Is 18 months too young to learn how to read an analog clock? 

Probably not. 

.

Is 18 months too young to be learning how to use Grandpa’s pocket knife? 

Maybe. 

I know my Dad has a Victorinox Swiss Army knife that belonged to his Dad.

.

Grandpa was using it, and I wanted to have a closer look at it. 

.

It is a Victorinox Swiss Army knife, the model with the serrated main blade. 

I know Grandpa got his first Victorinox knife from a German Exchange student that stayed with him and Grandma in the 1993. 

Now he has several models, the Classic, the Rambler, and this one with the serrated blade.  

.

I already have my own multi tool. 

I just leave it in my drawer because most of my pants don’t have pockets. 

I guess it is a drawer knife not a pocket knife. 

.

My Mom’s cousin has a drawer knife,  

it used to be a pocket knife but he just leaves it in his drawer. 

So now it is a drawer knife, that doesn’t seem as handy to me. 

.

I hope one day to have my own Victorinox pocket knife maybe I will start off with a Classic as well. 

.

Did you ever have a pocket knife, and do you carry one now?
