Watch this genius get it all wrong. Oh, so wrong.
His expression says, “Kill Me Now!” It’s as if he knows that from this point on for the rest of his life, he will always be known as the idiot who missed the first question. I just hope he doesn’t harbor a grudge against Electric Surge Protectors for long, cause he might need one some day.
I am the father of 3 glorious children; Ryan Daniel is 4 years old, Dylan Joel is 3 years old, and my only daughter, Lauryn Grace is 1 year old. Today is Dylan’s 3rd Birthday.
Tribute to Dylan’s 3rd year
Dylan is the kind of kid who brings new meaning to the phrase, “painfully shy.” I think sometimes it literally hurts him to gather attention of any kind. Have you seen a kid run and hide under the table while his friends sing ‘Happy Birthday’? While his siblings seem to light up in the spotlight, Dylan would much rather go unnoticed. Now don’t confuse shyness with fear. Dylan rarely exhibits fear in the face of bugs, dogs, or jumping from high places. In his three years of living, he has carved out a great existence living in the background of those around him. But it is this trait, that makes him so special.
It’s impossible to get Dylan to enjoy doing anything, when he can’t do it with his big brother or little sister. If Dad ever tries to take him out for ice cream all by himself, he throws a fit wanting to know why Ryan and Lauryn and Mommy and Zack(dog) aren’t coming along. I’ve snuck him candies and treats at various times, and he will always stick out another hand and say, “What ’bout bubba?” Two days a week, his big brother goes to a Pre-K program; on these days Dylan can only go about 2 hours before he desperately wants his ‘bubba’ to come home. Even the Birthday party we had yesterday, had Dylan asking when bubba would get his party. It actually bothers him to receive special treatment. What is wrong with him?
Dylan also enjoys saying goodbye and hello to inanimate objects. Rarely do we pull out of the driveway without hearing, “Bye-Bye House, Bye-Bye toys, Bye-Bye Daddy’s car.” After returning home, he always greets the objects with the same enthusiasm. It’s like he feels some kind of relational bond with every object he encounters throughout the day.
His fascination with Buzz Lightyear has now taken on epic proportions. What began as any kid’s toy, has become a part of the family. He got a new Buzz this year, for his birthday; but he still only holds dear the McDonald’s Happy Meal buzz he got years ago. Buzz has to eat with us, take baths with him, and always travels with the family. If you didn’t know Buzz Lightyear was a toy, after talking with Dylan you might think him to be a family member.
So Happy Birthday to Dylan Joel. I didn’t think it was possible, but I think my new 3 year old just might be the most unselfish person in our house. Daddy will Always Love You.
Things I’ve stumbled over the past few days. Enjoy!
Maybe the Jews had it right all along.
Words of a fool, “Because all it’s going to do is help me.” This guy can’t possibly be this dumb, can he?
Let it Go! It happened a long, long, long time ago.
Even if Rush thought it, why would he say it? Is he an idiot? Yes.
This fits under the heading of “I Hope to God in Heaven this Never Happens to Me!”
Botched Child Porn Raid
A.J. Nuckols, who said his family has filed formal complaints, wrote in a letter published in the Chatham Star-Tribune that the raid at his Gretna, Va., home “scared beyond description” him and his family.
He described being “held at gunpoint, taunted and led into the house,” and said the home was ransacked by a “paramilitary search-and-seizure team” that took computers, cameras, DVDs and VHS tapes.
“Men ran at me, dropped into shooting position, double-handed semiautomatic pistols pointed at me, and made me put my hands against my truck,” Nuckols wrote.
How would you ever explain to the neighbors why 20+ men with bullet-proof gear and guns in the air stormed your house? And all this because someone had given the coppers the wrong IP address.
