Kids....Ya gotta love 'em...

Coins in the car cassette player...
Home movie video tapes stretched out across the room (& tied in knots!)...
"Washing the car" after a downpour using mud-puddle water and the dog blanket...
6yo fighting with the 18mo over a teething toy (ferchrissakes!)...

The sanctity of material items just fades away after children...

Rug Rats and Ankle Biters......just a STD, nothing more.

Immunisation is good...

How about a juice size glass of milk poured into a 55 gallon fish tank. Who would think that that little bit could go so far as to turn the whole tank milky. We had to get every fish out of the tank as fast as possible, which was hard because we could not see a thing.
This disaster was created by my son at the age of 2.

Cassette jammed in the car player with a wad of bubble gum in it when my one son was 5. Peed on one night when my other son was 3 and snuck into Mom and Dads bed one night and fell asleep on his back across my legs. Same son who did the cassette trick, when 9 decided to use the bath towels as toilet paper when it ran out, and hung the towels back up so neat you did not notice. Only found out when drying off after a shower! Oldest boy at 12 sets oven on fire because he did not know he had to remove the cardboard backing before he put the pizza in the oven. Then they became teenagers.....woo....not enough space here for that. Sufice to say, enjoy them while they are young because you ain't seen nothing yet!

Pop-Up tent turned inside out! Never figured out how to get it outside out again..............

With all due respect to J.A.F.O. across the pond, there is a brand name of duct tape called Duck tape, so, technically, Duck tape would be OK.

werewolf....what's the bet the name stemmed from the American incapability of pronouncing things correctly.....Aluminum, anybody?....

Can't donate these days....they spit dummies about tattoos...


....ahhhhh.....we have trouble with the English language??

Gary, My best guess.."Can't donate these days....they spit dummies about tattoos" Is "Can't donate these days...they Freak Out about tattoos.

yrag.....the Aussie lingo may have you a little 'lost' at times....but it's OK....some of us follow it just fine...

yrag: spit the dummy means basically to throw a childish tantrum. Like a baby spitting their dummy (pacifier to the yanks) out in a fit of rage. Similar saying to 'throwing your teddy out of the pram'.
