don't be so sure.
once upon a time, three boys left the farm.  one built a house of straw, one 
of sticks,and one of bricks.
now, why did they leave the farm in the first place?  and if bricks are so 
readily available, why would anyone build from straw or sticks?  and did 
anyone really ever build with straw?
sigh.  why don't little kids just enjoy the pretty pictures?
and why do i have a story like this trying to break out of my brain?
