Taking Daddy Down A Notch


Ok, so I'm the father of two. A two year old and a 3 month old. Greatest thing i've ever done. And I never thought I'd be saying that. I'm a pretty selfish guy and the thought of kids seemed like a hinderance and not a lot of fun. Boy was I wrong. Sure, they'll turn your life upside down at the drop of a hat. But, it's the daily challenge that is the spice of life.

So, my two year old is at the age where she'll reapeat anything she hears. But that means you can pretty much put words in her mouth and make her say what you want her to say

EXAMPLE:

I taught her to finish this...

DADDY: "I'm going to take you down......l"

DAUGHTER: "to Chinatown!!!!!"

2 years old and she's taking people down to CHINATOWN!!! Now that's funny!!!

Apparently while I'm at work here my wife has gotten in on this game.

EXAMPLE:

MRS TBONE: "Who's the queen?"

DAUGHTER:"MOMMY!!!"

MRS TBONE: "Who's the princess?"

DAUGHTER: "ME!!!!"

MRS TBONE: "Who's the jester?"

DAUGHTER: "DADDY!!!!!!"

Now our BIKE BASH party is tonight and there will be plenty of people who come up and say "Hey TBONE nice to meet you........ I get stoned with you everyday......I've been listening to you for 10 years....etc, etc.....". I would be lying if I said that it didn't go to my head just a little. After all this is why I got in this silly business of radio. I want whoever's listening day to go by a little better and for people to say "I KNOW THAT GUY, HE"S ON THE RADIO!!".

But then I'll come home and I'm just Daddy or even the Jester. And that is just as satisfying.

Maybe I'll see you at the BIKE BASH PARTY.

Until next time


THE BEATINGS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE IMPROVES
