The following is a summarized version of the conversation that Dustin (and I) had while eating dinner last night. It was a doozy!
Dustin wishes he knew what Porter was thinking, or that Porter could talk.
Problem: What if Porter could speak, but he only spoke chinese?
Dustin's solution: Hire a chinese kid to be our live-in translator.
Problem: Child labor laws.
Solution: Not tell anyone? OR hire (cough *adopt* cough) a little chinese girl, whose parents sent her to the US because they can only have 1 kid and they want it to be a boy.
Problem: Little chinese girls are good at gymnastics??? (side note: the parents wouldn't have smuggled her into the US if she were a good gymnast, therefore there might not be many little chinese girls out there for hire)
Solution: A little girl who is bad at gymnastics can still be a good translator.
Problem: Porter doesn't really speak any language... not even chinese.
No Solution. Darn.
I guess we'll never know what Porter is really thinking.
