All of us have a comfort zone. I have mine while fishing in a river in Colorado. Jenny finds her zone while running. I have yet to find mine in France. Maybe it's the langauge thing, maybe its cow tongue foie gras or jelly meat (No words in any dictionary can describe this kind of substance) that I had to ingest this past week. I know I will find my zone once I am able to leave the toilet for more than periods of 5 minutes at a time and complete the artifical colen replacement surgery which I heard is not too painful. That being said, our kids are finding their groove. Abby is meeting kids at school and having fun. However, the big winner out of this whole deal thus far goes to woobie #2. I don't know what has happened, but let's just say that he is out of his shell and dancing around like a naked crab.
In fact effective immediately, I am ceasing all investments in the stock market and putting them into cookies, sugar wafers, and Gatorade. Let me be a little more clear, I am not speaking of the company's stock who manufacture these items, rather I am speaking of the actual products themselves. Instead of heartburn and anger I get with the market, I have found that investments in these heavily sugared products are the source of the bribes that I typically give to the world's funniest 3 year old and upon consumption, I receive the best footage from his numerous performances. For example:
- A few weeks back, we took the kids to the Louvre to let them see some of the museum. Instead of taking in the beauty of the Mona Lisa or the many other things at this world monument, Grey decided to look for a slide and found one at the center of the museum which is now video #1 of this post. As you can see, there are no steps for this pyramid slide in the Louvre. Secondly, a regular slide on bottom from him would not suffice in such an environment. This is the Louvre and he thought it would be best to treat the visitors to some real art, like a belly slide, and in fact not one slide, but several so that they could get the real sensation of what it feels to complete such a task with one's epidermis. Just for the record, one might notice that this is not an "outside park" near the Lourve. This is the actual Lourve. As you can see the return of one chocolate cookie investment is better than anything that GE or GM could bring these days.
- Example #2- The example is born for what now can be named as " The Most Expensive Umbrellas in the World." We had promised to give the kids their own umbrellas if they did certain chores all week. The probability of this was quite small, but somehow they hit the lottery and completed all of the tasks. You would think in a city of over 2 million people where it rains about every other day, two Disney umbrellas would not be a difficult task. So in order to fulfill the promise, we took the kids to EuroDisney on a whim which is the scene of the second post of Funny Man. In this video, after standing in line for 90 minutes, he is torturing his mother on the 1 minute and 20 second Dumbo ride. I will not need to get into the great details of my Walt Disney Conspiracy Theory.
- Example #3- I don't know what this is, but it looks like a scene from the toddler version of Flashdance.All in all, this kid is the best thing I have seen in Paris. I figure in about 6 months, we will have shown his talents in enough public places where he will be recognized upon arrival. At that time, I will either be able to charge people for his performances or we will be immediately escorted out and asked not to come back. Regardless of the outcome, he is funniest thing I have seen in Paris and somehow he smells better than the people on the subway even with a big dump in his pants.
