Boys will be boys...
Another bit of amusement form one of my other haunts...
For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious. For those who have children this age, this is not funny. For those who have children nearing this age, this is a warning. For those who have not had children yet, this is birth control.
The following came from an anonymous Mother in Austin, Texas
Things I have learned from my children. (Honest and No Kidding)
1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with rollerblades, they can ignite.
3. A 3-year old's voice is louder then 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing batman underwear and a superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words, "Uh-Oh", it's already too late.
8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, lots of it.
9. A six year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old man says they can only do that in the movies.
10. Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4 year old.
11. Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12. Super glue is forever.
13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool, you still can't walk on water.
14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15. VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches, even though TV commercials show they do.
16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise while driving.
18. You probably do not want to know what that odor is.
19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.
20. The fire department in Austin, TX has a 5-minute response time.
21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22. It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
24. The mind of a six year old is wonderful. First grade, true story:
One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of the Three Little Pigs to her class. She came to the part of the story where the first pig was trying to accumulate the building materials for his home. She read, "...And so the pig went up to the man with the wheelbarrow full of straw and said, "'Pardon me sir, but may I have some of that straw to build my house?'" The teacher paused then asked the class, "And what do you think the man said?" One little boy raised his hand and said, "I think he said ...'Sh(expletive deleted)! A talking pig!' "The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10 minutes.
25. 60% of men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.

Fun tricks when you are a very precocious Preschooler.
1. Teachers do not like you introducing Pi into discussions of additions & subtractions of base 10 numbers. (Yes I did at age 5-6)
2. Never do a book report on "The Prince" the teacher will call for a "Confrence" with your parents.... (Actually that happened when I was in second Grade)
3. What ever you do, don't bring mom & dad's book the Joy of ___, to show and tell, even though it has lots of pictures. (Heh, Heh, Yup)
4. Mom does not like you mentioning Divorce, her Boyfriends, The funny money that we use for food, etc. (My parent's broke up when I was 2, I kinda had the "Trailer Trash"/Hippie childhood)
5. Do not draw on the Food Stamps (Yup)
6. Do not take the washer apart even if you know how to put it back together. Also do not take sections of mom's car appart. (Age 3, and yes I put it back together, I also took apart the Clocks, and several other things. And fixed them, I was a budding TS/Hacker even then)
7. It is ok to take sections of the Car of the "Friend" mom calls "A no good abusive Loser." apart. (I did sabotage my first stepdad's car, on a few occassions.)

I did unscrew a live plug socket when I was 2.
In my defence, maybe you shouldn't leave an inquistive toddler alone with a screwdriver after letting her watching you screw in the socket and then turning on the power.

LOL, I think I need to double check some of this information.
