The anatomy of a table

BallFiend: "Where is the head of the table?"
Me: "You're sitting at it."
BallFiend: "Where's the foot of the table? Is that the foot?" (pointing at the other end of the table)
DeepSpice: "No, that's the head of the table too."
BallFiend: "Why are they both the head?"
Me: "That's just what they are called.
Thumper: Ahhh-waaa!
StompyDad: "It's funny isn't it... I'd never thought about it that way before..."
BallFiend: "Where's the table's feet?"
Me: Tables don't have feet. They have legs though..."

Dinner conversation at our place this evening.
