Skill Set

A follow-up to my post of January 8:

Owen has a skin rash and so took himself off to the doctor and got a prescription for a medicated ointment. When he got home, however, he couldn't get the ointment tube open so he handed it to Keith. "Dad, what's up with this? I can't get this foil thing off." Keith then showed him how you have to flip the cap over and use the pointy end to break a hole in the foil seal. And then he called over to me, "See, hon? We still have important skills to pass on to the next generation."
