Another Quote of the Evening

Lucy is on a roll.

Last night, Karl was talking about President’s Bush’s last press conference, held yesterday.  Karl said Bush was asked what he considered to be failures of his presidency and, suprisingly, Bush was candid about some things.

Karl: “I feel sorry for the guy.  To be so public and such a failure …. he must feel like ….”

Lucy:  “… a piece of crap.”

You cannot teach that kind of timing.

You can, however, teach the word crap to your six year old.

    Let’s just say I have a lot of “first swear” stories in my arsenal to be pulled out at graduations Bat Mitzvahs, my favorite probably being a certain charge stamping his foot and saying, “GD it, hurry up!” in response to me not stirring mac and cheese fast enough.
    God bless the ankle biters.

    It took me a long time to teach Ryan that a spill is not necessarily followed by the words “damn it”

    Take her to Berkeley sometime, where they teach grade schoolers to (1) ask passing strangers if they’re Republicans and, if the answer is affirmative, (2) loudly denounce them. It’s true: I witnessed it myself on Shattuck Avenue last summer.

    Love your blog!
