Babe in the hood

By the way, new child in the house. Born in the dining room (hope he doesn't turn out to be fat, or this will be a running joke that secretly pains him forever).

As far as his looks, a friend wheeled out the old Winston Churchill analogy. I think it's time we agree it was WC who looked like a baby,




not the other way around. Also, I only know the man from news reels, but I remember less rooting and meconium.

Rooting: baby-bird-like mouth gaping meant to elicit nipple insertion (atn. WC experts: I don't want to know)

Meconium: Newborn tar poop. See CUSPIDOR -- CONTENTS

Cuspidor: Spittoon

Cuspidor -- Contents: Mouth meconium. See FISHERMAN'S BONES -- TEXAS TARTAR SAUCE

Fisherman's bones: Completely normal potato salad

Fisherman's bones -- Texas tartar sauce: Too disgusting to describe. See CIRCUS PEANUTS

Oh, and by the other way, I got the long shoes job. And the guy who hired me resigned like the next day. Long shoe intimidation factor: 10.
