This is from 2009, but I wanted to re-post it because today is "Spread the word to end the word" day. Every time I hear somebody refer to Skyler as "retard" I die a little more inside. Our-kids is a group of over 1000 people who all are people who are in one way or another in the special needs community. Most of us are parents, but there are teachers, doctors, therapists, siblings, and some are the person with the diagnosis. It is a worldwide community, but most are from the United States. We benefit from having an international membership, because it can be quite interesting to hear about viewpoints or medical procedures that are going on in other countries. Over the years, I have had faceless names become close friends, engaged in discussions about body functions you wouldn’t mention to your doctor, and gained a valuable sounding board for advice and ideas. I have grown to care about a lot of these people, and their lives as much as some of my own friend
That was good.
ReplyDeleteohmegod! It's like a living enactment of the dichotomy of good and evil!!
ReplyDeleteI think wedgie man might hurt more people where noogie man is more tame. does this help your decision?
ReplyDeleteI think, if given the choice, I would like to be Noogie Woman.
Wedgie Man for sure. And make sure you wear your underpants on the outside, so no one can reciprocate the wedgie.
ReplyDeleteMy 8 year old nephew won a trophy for his Captain UnderPants costume at his school
Dick: Thanks, your comics always rock also!
ReplyDeleteBO: I not so sure which is which!
Teri: Didn't help much, but a big thumbs up for you going as Noogie women!
Cheer: Congrats to your Nephew! And if I wore underpants, I would always have them on the outside.
Kim was appalled this morning to discover that Adam has "noogie" contests with his friends at school. Having been a 13-year-old boy at some point in my life, I was not surprised in the least.
ReplyDeleteIn a couple of years, when we have two teenagers living under this roof, things should be really interesting.
Two teens at the same time is going to be quite the challenge JY. Good luck with that!
ReplyDeleteOr the ever-popular, Sperm Boy Wonder!
ReplyDeleteWhat is Sperm Boys power? Sperms seem to wander aimlessly looking for an egg, I don't see how that helps in an armed robbery. ;^)
ReplyDeleteOnly if they stop the crime before it happens... prematurely!
ReplyDeleteIt's a power and a curse all at the same time!
