Children Finding The Perfect Blend Between Cute...
Little Girl 1: We're cousins, right?
Little Girl 2: Yeah. We're cousins.
Little Girl 3: But I want to be sisters.
Little Girl 2: We can't be sisters, we're cousins.
Little Girl 1: Can we be sister in laws?
Little Girl 3: Yeah! Let's be sister in laws!
Little Girl 2: Do you even KNOW what a sister in law is?
Little Girl 1: No.
Little Girl 3: No.
Little Girl 2: Do you want me to tell you?
Little Girl 1: YES!
Little Girl 2: Ok. I'll tell you. A sister in law is--let's say that we're friends..
Little Girl 3: Uh huh...
Little Girl 2: Really really good friends. If we stay close and treat each other real good for a long time, then we become sister in laws.
Little Girl 1: Ohhhh.
Little Girl 3: So, when we get older, we can be sister in laws?
Little Girl 2: I don't know. Maybe we can be cousin in laws?
Me: [Mumbled under breath, a few feet away] It's SISTERS in law, you stupid idiots.
Mother: Excuse me? Did you just say something about my girls?
Me: Huh? No! I mean yes! They're adorable. [mumbled under breath] ...and dumb.
Mother: What was that?
Me: ...nothing.
Mother: That's what I thought.

Me: A Santa Carol?
Aunt: The one with the Grinch.
Me: Oh! The one with Grinchenezer Scrooge? Where he's mean to Tiny Jim, and then he gets haunted by the ghosts of the three wise men?
Brother: Yeah, and then Charlie Brown and his dog Rudolph save Christmas with Tim Allen.

Me: Yeah, sorry. I don't think that's on DVD yet.
Aunt: Oh, ok. Do you have eggnog?
Brother: I don't think you need any.

Using Mother Nature To Your Advantage
Even with the heavy rains coming down in LA the past few days, I’ve heard a lot of firetrucks blaring their sirens and rushing through the streets. You’d think they could save a lot of time and energy if instead of contacting the fire department, the emergency operators just said, “911, what’s your emergency? Fire?
