A blond cluck tears up untrue story (4,3,4)

When I got my brain back, it didn't work right
Didn't have as many good ideas
-- Morphine, My Brain
I had a post composed here about the [mostly] boring things I've been up to in the last couple days, but rather than tell you about financial planning and insurance interviews, you'll probably be more interested to hear about my family's preoccupation with penises.

Presently, it's mostly Hugh, and I probably fall a distant second. Hugh will sit at the breakfast table and go around announcing: "Daddy, you have penis, Mommy has 'gina, Neva has 'gina, I have penis!" In the car driving the kids to daycare, he called out "who has penis, raise your hand!"

From time to time the kids' school hosts a screening of a kids' movie with the french soundtrack. Tonight, they were showing Barnyard (la ferme en folie), so we went with the kids. As we drove back to school for the third time today, Hugh requested we splash in a puddle in the driveway. Our rule for this (yes, we have a rule for who gets to decide if we splash or not) is that whoever's side of the vehicle it is gets to choose. Hugh sat behind me and chose the splash. Neva pointed out that the "penises side" of the car got to splash, and Cheryl and I both suppressed some laughter.

The movie features a cast of barnyard animals walking upright, but I was perplexed to see that both bulls and cows feature similar udders. The females can be identified by their voices (apparently the English version features Courtney Cox and Wanda Sykes), and their eyelashes.

The producers could learn a thing or two about anatomy from our kids.

On the subject of bull, I noticed this morning that a new episode of Penn & Teller: Bullshit! had downloaded. The first episode of season 5 is on the subject of obesity. Next week, they'll tackle Wal-mart.
