One of Toby's new things is playing in his brother's room... he gets dropped off in there by me, and immediately goes to the bass drum pedal. He then grabs the kick part with his hand, and in a kneeling position, plays the drum. This is good for literally minutes of entertainment. But, every time, he gets overconfident and ends up falling over. Which, between you and me, is not that big of a deal... no head bonking, just a nice soft faceplant in the carpet. BUT, every day, it is met with screams of rage and betrayal. It sounds like Jerry Springer in there. So, I come in and pick him up. And he cries and lunges for the drum. When I put him down he assumes the kneeling drummer position again, and again, and again. Very entertaining.

Last night we went to Old Navy. I told Richy if I have a girl, he's in trouble. I may have to spend everything he makes on all these little peasant shirts and flowered jeans and so on. Fo-rizzle.

I hope Tron is feeling better. My 5 day sinus headache went away, so it isn’t sinusitis. Must have just been the weather change with fall starting.

Nate said...

fever finally broke...but I have no strength now, I feel so weak. I haven't eaten but maybe twice in the past 4 days. Been drinking lots of water but nothing is being absorbed by my body. The only reason I eat is so the hunger pangs will go away

Wanna cut in line? Eat a live cockroach

GURNEE, Illinois (AP) -- Why wait in line when you can just eat a cockroach?

That's the question Six Flags Great America is asking thrill seekers during a Halloween-themed FrightFest. The amusement park is daring customers to eat a live Madagascar hissing cockroach in exchange for unlimited line-jumping privileges.

The promotion, which has Lake County Health Department officials shaking their heads, starts October 7.

Anyone who chows down the entire 2- to 3-inch horned cockroach gets a pass for four people to cut to the front of ride lines through October 29.

Park officials insist it's safe to eat the crunchy critters, but health officials are cautioning participants.

Consuming live roaches might increase risks of gastrointestinal illness and allergies, according to Bill Mays, Lake County Health Department's community health director.

Cockroach eaters will have to sign waivers and still pay admission fees, said Six Flags spokesman James Taylor.

What nice kids I have.

I wonder how much they are.

Picnic area works for me.

I mean lawn tickets are the best.

It is so much cooler there.,

How bout purchasing 7 tickets and us all go.......

I bet Chuckster would like that too.

What if we all pitch in and make it possible for all of us to go.

I am so excited.

Got to go back to work.

Skeleton Crew yesterday and today.

Nate said...

Josh said...

Madagascar hissing cockroach... yum!

Nate said...

you should probably try to catch him at a club or something where he'd be headlining or playing for more than a half an hour

Mama PC said...

Nate said...

oh to dine on something other than leftovers and crackers...alas...my contagious factor prevents my attendance

Viking Granny!!!! said...

Man o Man......who likes Jonny Lang beside me and all my yungins?

Jess. Please email me info on JL in Austin.
