Mindless Monday Madness

Ok, so around here the weather is not exactly what you would call consistent. It is Oregon after all. So the kids had a lot of free time on their hands and after reading books and making forts, they watch way too much TV in my humble, yet authoritative opinion. I got totally sick of hearing the theme music for Zack & Cody ,Hanna Montana, The Wizards of Waverly Place and the loathsome i.carly. I walk into a room with these pieces of bovine balderdash shows on and the kids are in some sort of "Lucky Charms" high trance that cannot be broken. At least they are not trying to smoke Smarties like we saw on CNN the other night. Do Smarties show up on a drug test? I had had enough of this insanity. I told them they had to first turn off the boob tube and second, come up with a new creative jingle.
This shouldn't be hard with all the damned TV they had watched. I guess in the end
you could say 'careful what you wish for' from two highly intelligent youngsters. The following is what they created. WOW. I am off to blaze some Smarties.

"800 5 8 8 2 300 Empire...Today! Ding! Eat fresh! Men, men, men, men manly men, hoo hoo hoo ooo hoo ooo hooo...It's not too late to sleep like a..Baby come back, you can blame it all on me...Mattress World! Every kiss begins with Kay! Ding!!

You have to sing the entire thing to get the effect.



Alayna got to get her ears pierced for accomplishing an exceeding in her state reading and math testing. A 205 was meeting the state standard. She scored a 223. She is growing up so fast in so many ways. I have my box of shotgun shells already. Each potential date will get his own shell with his name on it during our little chat prior to allowing my daughter to leave my home with him. (more on that another day) Make it a great week.

Keep On Rockin' In The Free World - Peace
