Stay indoors today. Sounds like a good day for freeping and troll hunting. :)

Hoping you have sunshine for the weekend.

Why do I let women talk me into helping with babysitting?
I'm a sucker for batting eyes I guess.

Children's Day

What's going on with Children's Day?
Did I miss a memo or a meeting while away?
While on vacation or at play?
Someone please fill me in... What's the score?

They are most precious resource.
We'll go through every option and recourse.
To make sure they're happy, loved and cared for.
Well educated, mannered and fed. Though not badly led.

As comfortable with social interaction.
Not to mention adverbs, nouns, decimals and fractions.
Parsing sentences and being with the World so at ease.
That in their purse of pocket there's coins and a comb.

They are a full time job. A career, if you please.
So always do your best. Never let it rest.
And remember that they might soon be footing the bill.
For your Golden Years in a Retirement Home.

Jack.

Happy Children's Day to you!!!

Here is your dose of humor...Follow the instructions to find your new name.
The following in an excerpt from a children's book, "Captain Underpants And the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants" by Dave Pilkey. The evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names......

Use the third letter of your first name to determine your new first name:

a = poopsie
b = lumpy
c = buttercup
d = gadget
e = crusty
f = greasy
g = fluffy
h = cheeseball
i = chim-chim
j = stinky
k = flunky
l = boobie
m = pinky
n = zippy
o = goober
p = doofus
q = slimy
r = loopy
s = snotty
t = tootie
u = dorkey

v = squeezit
w = oprah
x = skipper
y = dinky
z = zsa-zsa

Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your new last name:

a = apple
b = toilet
c = giggle
d = burger
e = girdle
f = barf
g = lizard
h = waffle
i = cootie
j = monkey
k = potty
l = liver
m = banana
n = rhino
o = bubble
p = hamster
q = toad
r = gizzard
s = pizza
t = gerbil
u = chicken
v = pickle
w = chuckle
x = tofu
y = gorilla
z = stinker

Use the fourth letter of your last name to determine the second half of your new last name:

a = head
b = mouth
c = face
d = nose
e = tush
f = breath
g = pants
h = shorts
i = lips
j = honker
k = butt
l = brain
m = tushie
n = chunks
o = hiney
p = biscuits
q = toes
r = buns
s = fanny
t = sniffer
u = sprinkles
v = kisser
w = squirt
x = humperdink
y = brains
z = juice

Thus, for example, George W. Bush's new name is Goober Chickenshorts.

Mine is snotty waffle tushie
