Thought you could appreciate this one:
The quickest way to get any kid's attention is to sit down and look comfortable.

Oh, I have seen that. LOL!

For those who have children this age, this is not funny.
For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning.
For those who have not yet had children, this is birth control.
The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, Texas:
Things I've learned from my children:
A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
If you spray hairspray on dust bunnies and run over them with rollerblades, they can ignite.
A 3-year-old's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh," it's already too late.
Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
A six-year-old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year-old man says they can only do it in the movies.
Certain Leggos will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year-old.
Play-Dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
Super glue is forever.
No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
You probably do not want to know what that odor is.
Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.
The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time.
The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
It will, however, make cats dizzy.
Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

KIDS IN THE FIFTIES...
Were you a kid in the Fifties or earlier?
Comedians joke. Grandkids snicker.
Twenty-somethings shudder and say "Eeeew!" But was our childhood really all
that bad? Judge for yourself:
In 1953: The US population was less than 150 million ... Yet you knew more
people then, and knew them better... And that was good.
The average annual salary was under $3,000...Yet our parents could put some
of it away for a rainy day and still live a decent life...And that was good.
A loaf of bread cost about 15 cents...But it was safe for a five-year-old to
skate to the store and buy one... And that was good.
Prime-time meant I Love Lucy, Ozzie and Harriet, and Lassie ... So nobody'd
ever heard of ratings or filters...And that was good.
We didn't have air-conditioning...So the windows stayed up and half a dozen
mothers ran outside when you fell off your bike... And that was good.
Your teacher was either Miss Matthews or Mrs. Logan or Mr. Adkins...But not
Ms Becky or Mr. Dan ... And that was good.
The only hazardous material you knew about...Was a patch of grassburrs around
the light pole at the corner... And that was good.
Most families needed only one job...Meaning Mom was home when school let
out... And that was good.
You loved to climb into a fresh bed...Because sheets were dried on the
clothesline... And that was good.
People generally lived in the same hometown with their relatives... So "child
care" meant grandparents or aunts and uncles...And that was good.
TV was in black-and-white... But all outdoors was in glorious color... And
that was certainly good.
Your Dad knew how to adjust everybody's carburetor... And the Dad next door
knew how to adjust all the TV knobs... And that was very good.
Your grandma grew snap beans in the back yard...And chickens behind the
garage... And that was definitely good.
And just when you were about to do something really bad ...Chances were you'd
run into your high school coach...Or the nosy old lady from up the
street...Or your little sister's piano teacher...Or somebody from
church...ALL of whom knew your parents' phone number...And YOUR first name...
And even THAT was good!
Things have definitely changed. Have they changed for the better?????

"Does anyone take "Bent Member" serious?? " Of course not. He is, as always, seeking center stage. It IS all about him after all.
