Boys crack me up. Payton was delighted to run over to this group of boys (all from different families) and play with them. Now, I use the word "play" and "with" in the loosest of terms because that is not what boys do. Boys play beside one another and do not really interact. They certainly do not talk with one another. I think this is why they get along so well. I mean really, if you don't talk or share with one another, what's there to argue about, right? Boys really are simple in so many ways. "Jonathon Seagull spent the rest of his days alone, but he flew way out beyond the Far Cliffs. His one sorrow was not solitude, it was that other gulls refused to believe the glory of flight that awaited them; they refused to open their eyes and see. He learned more each day... What he had once hoped for the Flock, he now gained for himself alone; he learned to fly, and was not sorry for the price that he had paid." (Richard Bach)

Apparently this theory doesn't hold true for brothers.
