For four and a half years, I have been telling everyone that Wm is a genius. And, in one lunch at Graffiti Burger (Wm's favorite place on the planet), Wm proved it thrice over:
1. As mentioned, Wm LOVES Graffiti Burger. He was stuffing fries in his mouth as fast as he could. One didn't go in the right way (he tried to shove it in vertically and it got stuck) and Wm laughs and says, "that one didn't go in at the right angle." Yeah. He knows geometry.
2. While we are eating, Wm sees a bird flying by and says, "look, I think that bird is migrating someplace warm." Wm has an understanding of both climate dynamics AND bird migratory patterns.
3. Wm saw the address of Graffiti Burger, 2700, and says, "that number is twenty-seven hundred." Mathematical genius. Kid already knows that adding two zeros to a number makes it a multiple of one hundred. Calculus, here Wm comes.
I rest my case.
Note: this genius confirmation makes sense. Geniuses are often temperamental (check), hyperactive (check), evil (check), and obsessive (check).
