Toddler News

Rowan is getting to the point where you can carry a fairly humorous conversation. While she and I were eating a small dinner of pirogies, she told me she was going to pour orange pop in a old computer sitting on the table I was working on. I responded that if she poured pop in my computer, I was going to poop in her bed. This got a giggle from both of us, then she explained all the reasons why I should not poop in her bed. I stood firmly by my threat if she poured pop in my computer.

This reminds me of a worry that Boffy has about Rowan in preschool. You see when I read to her at bedtime, many stories end with all of the characters coming down with excessive flatulence. Then they all tooted and farted and Rowan chimes in that "then everything stunk" while jumping up and down on the bed. Boffy is is worried that story time at preschool will end with Rowan standing up in class at the end of a book and declaring that "than they all tooted and farted and everything stunk".

And of course if she was to do this it would result in total toddler anarchy, as I imagine the entire class would about shit themselves with laughter.

The big question is, does father Mojo condemn his daughter potently causing total toddler anarchy? He might, as far as fatherly duties require and putting on a good front as such, but secretly wishes his daughter to be expert in sowing toddler rebellion in the classroom.

Crossfire

After caveman tuned me into this,

I jumped into the fray. Later though, a fellow claiming to be an actual soldier on the ground in Iraq posted a rather harsh rebuttal (not to me). Basically saying "shut the f up, I'm being shot at every day". I wanted to say something, but what do you say? The man is being shot at, I have no relevant experience in being shot at, so I do in fact "shut the f up".

But it just makes me even more pissed off to hear from a fellow american caught in the crossfire. Knowing I screamed bloody murder to stop this madness from the beginning. Knowing the entire world screamed bloody murder to stop this. The mindset of the American public, that you cannot oppose the war without being traitor to the service people fighting in Iraq. Knowing that the soldier is too busy fighting for his life to take time to understand that the whole thing was a mistake. That I can't tell him without taking the chance of breaking his morale and getting him killed.

I could go on forever, but it just sucks, just plain sucks.

Edit: and delete my posts, as the lunitics are begining to arrive and there is no use in being anywhere near the post once the lunitics arrive.
