Fairy Tales?

“A boy came in a car & he opened the door for Snow White. She said stay for awhile. He said have some juice. And then, Super Snow White took off!”

Memorial Day Twenty Twelve

Paying homage to our great nation by doing as little as possible. The kids are being really good, they are coloring currently. Muggy out, so we are in… Killed half a bag of Fritos while watching marathon tv (Pawn Stars, Storage Wars, Deadliest Catch, etc). Have a great day.

6:00

It’s pants optional time, watch out kids!

Turkey

Everyone that I have ever spoken to has at one time of another mentioned how bad it would be to hit a deer. They are big, solid animals on tall spindly legs. You hit them and then they go thru your windshield & you drive off the road into a ravine… The end. Today I learned that the ‘best’ animal you could hit (not that I’m trying, because it was still sad) is a turkey. They are the exact opposite of a deer, tiny upper body & big low to the ground lower body. I had an unfortunate run in with one earlier today; let me tell you, it was almost pleasant. Other than the jarring noise it made… Thanks! Pass the stuffing.

You ever see “Rules of Engagement” on CBS?

kesslersantos:

Pete is EXACTLY like the Jeff character. EXACTLY. These things have happened in my home in one form or another.

Jeff: What would you give me if I put this whole waffle in my mouth?
Audrey: An uncontested divorce.

Jeff: $85 for skin cream?
Audrey Bingham: This stuff is amazing. This is it.
[pulls out the tiniest little jar of skin cream]
Jeff: $85 for that tiny jar? What’s in it, $80?

Jeff: I love these rolling suitcases, it’s like I’m walking a dog that’s filled with my underpants.

Yeah, I’m that awesome.

Politically Correct?

So I was reading Peyton a Curious George book tonight; I noticed that that some of the details of the story were different from the show. This was the original story & illustrations from 1957. The gist of the story is that George gets into a rocket and goes to into space. A seemingly small difference was that the scientist, Prof. Wiseman was an older man in the book; a younger woman in the tv show. You could say that this is a small, insignificant difference. You could also say that it’s politically correct pandering, gone too far. A few years ago, I would have agreed with you. Today, I have a little girl & I like the idea that if she sees that episode she could imagine herself as a professor that sends a monkey into space - if she wants. I want her to know that she can do whatever she can dream, except have a boyfriend. Ever. Thank you.
