The Family That Blogs Together…
Family May 2nd, 2007My 7 year old son has just published his first blog post. I thought I was worried when my wife started blogging, now my son’s trying to horn in on my wobby (I just invented the word wobby - it means a Web Hobby. So says I). The worst part is that even he’s a better writer than I am — I mean that post about the concrete…it was poignant, concise and the grammar was excellent! I guess it’s true what they say…you know the one about how your kids steal your wobbies, make you look unintelligent and then make you pay for their college.
Hey 5 year old daughter of mine…where can I read YOUR blog?

“…make you look unintelligent and then make your pay for their college.”
Make YOUR pay, eh? I have so many witty responses that I can’t decide which to use, so I will list them in roman numerical order, followed by a collective ZING!
I. Looks like whoever paid for your college should get their money back.
II. Don’t give the kids all the credit. I think you’re doing a fine job of making yourself look unintelligent.
III. Well someone in the family has to learn to write.
IV. At least Jachin’s grammar was good.
V. Who is this “Your” person and why is he paying for your kids’ college? Is he sponsoring some kind of involuntary scholarship program? Can I sign my kids up for it too?
VI. You know those annoying people who cruise around the internet just waiting for someone to slip up and post a typo to their blog just so they can expend enormous amounts of energy thinking up witty retorts about the blogger’s intellect as if they were the self-appointed grammar police? I’m one of those people.
VII. Aforementioned ZING!

Don’t worry. I’m sure someone made a back up of the internet in the last 4 minutes. That’s all the evidence I need.

Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sthithilian when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha…
