My son used to help me repair computers when he was 3 years old.  He could 
tell how frustrated I was trying to figure out what was wrong with the 
thing, so he gave me a tip:  "Dad, it's the pluggers!"  I had to ask for 
clarification.  He was sure the problem was with "the pluggers."   Well, 
"the pluggers" are all those darned wires coming out of the back of the 
computer (ethernet, phone, keyboard, mouse, scsi zip, etc.).

Just thought I'd toss another cute story out there.  This time he was a 
little younger than three.  I told him I had to go to Sears to get a 
battery for the car and I'd be home in a little while.  He said "no, 
daddy, you don't have to go to the store."  I repeated that I did have to 
go.  He said "no" and walked to the refrigerator, opened it and showed me 
that we had batteries right there (mostly AA and 9-volt)!
