QUOTE OF THE DAY (OR MORE): "No, no. You don't understand. This is an '89 Calico. I'm pretty sure that exceeds the Kelly Blue Book value. The cat's totaled." --A comedian whose name I forget talking about a vet who presents a $3,000 bill for a 12-year-old cat

Who's on first?


The 13-year-old was doing some last-minute studying for his French quiz on the way to school this morning....


13-year-old: "Mom, what does 'quoi' mean?"


me: "what."


13-year-old: "quoi."


me: "what."


13-year-old: "Quoi, Mom..."


me: "It means 'what,' son."

    My brother went over to see if the neighbor boy could "Come out and play."
    "Can he?!" I shouted as he returned.
    "What?"
    "Can he?" I asked when we were face-to-face.
    "What?"
    "Can he?" I repeated.
    "What? What? What?" he insisted.
    My brother's name is Kenny.

    You should have thrown QUE at him. That would have really messed with him!

    I had a Chinese friend whose last name was Hu, pronounced like 'who,' who was in Who's Who. He played the violin, not baseball.

    Hee hee. I spoke a bit of Spanish to some of my middle schoolers today, and they looked at me like I was speaking--well--Spanish.
