Are They Still Talking About It?

On August 11, a stage blew down at our state fair. Several people were killed and injured and the event made national news. This morning, on the news, they said something else about it.

Connor: Are you kidding me...are they still talking about the stage collapsing?

Me: Yes they are.

C: It happened on August 11 and today is August 25. Are they ever going to stop talking about it?

Me: Well, there are still people recovering and some people have died in the last couple of days.

C: Seriously...they are going to be dead forever. Do we have to hear about it the rest of our lives?

(He should have been around when Diana died!!)

Don't Worry Dad...

We went duck pin bowling last weekend to celebrate Quentin's birthday. The lanes were pretty crowded when we got there, but there was one lane open so the boys all started playing.

When it was Quentin's turn, he picked up the ball and started to roll it, but a kid ran in front of him from another alley. So he stopped and waited for the kid to get out of the way. He tried again and the kid ran in front of him again. Again, he was patient and waited for the kid to get out of the way. This happened a few more times and Quentin waited patiently each time.

Finally, the mom came over and got the little boy. Quentin looked up at Brandon and said "Don't worry Dad...I think he may be artistic."
