Great White Sharks And You
Thursday October 18, 2007
My darling daughter was quick to fill me in on a bit of news garnered by some educational television programming the other day: I’m apparently relocating my little brood to The Red Triangle. Oh good. And here I was, just saying to myself: “Boy, Self, this is REALLY cool! You finally get a chance to move back to California beaches again and can enjoy some good surf!” Hm.

Only KDE can keep your children alive in the 21st century.
LOL! Now, seriously, I expect to see that worked into a wallpaper, post haste!!! =;) I mean, come on, freaky naked baby dolls is one thing, but land-sharks chasing a family with “Only KDE can keep your children alive in the 21st century”… hands down better…. =;)
