"Great Aunt Dahlia says she can't remember

"I expect another slice of carrot cake will jog her memory."
"I think she's just getting old and forgetful," I said, worried that the carrot cake was already disappearing too fast. "How old do you think she is?"
"Well, I just happen to know it's her birthday next week. She'll be one hundred years old."
"One hundred!" I said. "Gosh, I can't imagine being
that old. That's like, like

"Oh no," said Clarissa. "One hundred is nowhere near infinite."
"What's the difference?"
"Well, the difference is you could
draw one hundred rabbits, but you could
never draw an infinite number of rabbits".
