Come One, Come All

Another Reason Why Parents Think Video Games Suck

Overheard at arcade:

Kid: “Daddy, daddy! I got first place!”

Dad, disbelievingly, not necessarily “encouragingly”: “No way!”

Kid: “Well, I did. And I kicked your butt, too.”

Do They Come With Cages?

Someone on Craigslist is looking to unload a few monkeys.  Really.  Blankets is beyond interested and asks me to proofread her email to the seller.  Here it is, used with permission:

"I have never owned a monkey but have always wanted to.  I live on an acre and have had animals my whole life, birds, horses, rabbits, cats, dogs, rescued squirrels, bats and other animals. I grew up next to a dairy so I have spent a lot of time around cattle too.  My point being I love all animals and am interested in hearing a little more about yours.  Are you asking rehoming feels and if so, how much?  Do they come with cages?  Please let me know."
