Old News: KFC

Tonight, while taking my grandson to purchase chicken, I repeatedly referred to going to
Kentucky Fried Colonel. He kept asking me what I was talking about, and I said, oh, that's
right, the real name is Kentucky Fried Chicken. This didn't seem to help him understand
where we were going. When we pulled into the lot, the light bulb went off: "Why didn't
you say we were going to KFC?" Then my light bulb went off: He'd never heard of it called
by its full, formal, title from the past!
