Three Reasons Why The Future Is In Good Hands

 As overheard in my house:

“Why is Paris Hilton famous?”

“Who is Robin Williams?”

“Only nine more days until The Simpsons Movie!”


Important Safety Tip

July 8, 2007

When watching a movie on your Comcast DVR with your children, say, Talledega Nights,  you may want to remember that the television was set on Cinemax prior to starting said movie.

See, after 10 pm Central Time, the viewing fare is a little more esoteric.  And by esoteric, I mean made-for-cable-soft-core-porn.

It also is unhelpful that rather than changing the channel immediately while your wife is shrieking in an outrage-induced paroxysm of horror and your nine year old is covering his eyes with the pinky slightly letting in the prurient image, that you hit the “Guide” button rather than changing the channel.

Apparently, it only makes the image smaller in the right hand corner of the screen so that one may enjoy the sights and full throated sounds of a couple having boisterous, angry, doggie-style sex.   Funny how one forgets that in the panic of the moment.

My advice is to just change the channel.  To anything else you can find.  There is no point in leisurely scrolling through the guide to see what else is on.

It is also unhelpful in this situation to begin uncontrollably giggling like you have a head full of  laughing gas and a belly full of hash brownies.

Or so I have been told.

For extra credit, earlier in the day, take the aforementioned nine year old on a errand running trip that includes the Music Row Roundabout and the statue featured therein.  Prepare to answer many questions.

Didn’t the President make a campaign stop here last year? Mommy has some ’splainin to do.

Fool me twice, uh, won’t get fooled again!

“Laugh like this, ‘heheheheheheh’.”
