Four-Year-Old Philosophy

This is my conversation with Alex as I put him to bed tonight...

Alex: Where does something go when it is trapped in a whirlpool?

Me: Well, to the bottom, I guess.

Alex: What if there are so many things trapped they go all the way to the top and there is no room left?

Me: That's a good question. I don't know.

Alex: Well the real question is where is the bottom of a whirlpool? Because I don't just think it's at the bottom.
