A conversation with Jackson:
J: How do you spell chicken, you know, like the bird?
Me: c-h-i-c-k-e-n
J: Now, how do you spell the other kind of chicken?
Me: What other kind?
J: You know, the kind that you eat, the homonym of the bird called a chicken?
Me: It's the same thing, they're not homonyms. The chicken that we eat, is the bird after it's been killed and cooked.
J: What?!

That's funny. It's easy to see how that would happen though.
