Lisapooh 12664 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 12-13-02, 11:31 AM (EST) "Who knew???" The way kids minds work always amaze me. My daughter (6) has been learning a little bit about Ramadan and Kwanzaa from her friends, but she doesn't really know that much about Hanukkah. So last night she was asking me about it. I asked her what she thought it was. She said that she knew they got presents for 8 days (I was surprised she knew that). And that Santa didn't visit kids who celebrate Hanakkah. She said that they have other people who visit them. Immediately Jon Lovitz as Hanakkah Harry yelling "On Schlomo" came into my head. I asked her who it was that brought presents on Hanakkah, and she said it was like when Homer Simpson dresses up as Santa. I said "So, Homer Simpson dresses up like Santa and takes presents to Jewish kids?" And she was quite sure that yes, that is exactly what happens. She also wants to convert so she can get 8 days worth of presents. It reminded me of when my niece excitedly told me when she was 5 that her friend Sara's family "aren't human - they're Hungarian!" Anyway, I love the stories like that of the way kids see the world and intrepret things. So, I want to hear some from y'all. Have your kids (or you) mangled some song lyrics, misunderstood a story or whatever. You know, kids do say the darndest things!.   Top

"Sara's family "aren't human - they're Hungarian" BWAHAHAHAHA! Such a cute story from your daughter Pooh. My little nephew comes out with some funny ones. Wish I could remember them now.   Top

Thing 1 (age 4) and I were talking the other day about different animals, and whether they sleep and night or during the day. Thing 1: Animals that sleep during the day, what are they called? Me: Nocturnal. Thing 1: Oh, nocturnal, right, I forgot. But what about animals like us, that sleep at night and play during the day? Me: They're called diurnal. Thing 1: Diurnal. Isn't that a kind of potty? He didn't think it was as funny as I did. Diplomacy is the art of saying, "Nice doggie," until you can find a rock.   Top

Of course, in a few years it will be much less cute and endearing. There is a Phish song but I am not sure of the title. Part of the lyrics are "Birds of a feather are flocking outside" My son, then 3, was singing along in the back seat and DH and I were sure he was saying "Birds with feathers are fu**ing outside" That was pretty funny. Also, my mom was driving same son (then 4?) one day and was behind someone at a stop sign. Up peeps this little voice from the back seat: "Move it A$$hole!" Hmm, wonder where he got that from? Now DD, 3, has decided her brother is a "jackass." I am a horrible mother! I really have to stop driving the kids anywhere... An IceCat Original, 2002   Top

Tell her that Hanukkah is over for this year so if she converts she will have to wait a whole year for any presents. That should make her rethink the whole proposition. (I'm loving Homer Simpson)   Top

My brother used to sing along to the song "Moni Moni" by Billy Idol (the one that is pronounced Moanie Moanie). When it got to the part where they just repeat: Moni Moni Moni Moni Moni Moni , etc. He sang: Rockin Bozo Rockin Bozo Rockin Bozo, etc. If you substitute Rockin Bozo it actually fits.   Top
