Dangerous Jobs

James in the car today (age 6) "Mom.. Isn't mining a dangerous job?" Me: "Um yes.. I think it can be dangerous..." James: "Like if there was an earthquake in the rock started falling." Me: "Yep.. That would be dangerous.." James: "And if a herd of bison ran by while you were in the mine?" Me: "Well I think that would be a little unusual." James: "Why?"
