Some Kid Humor

A long time ago someone sent this to me when I had very very young boys.( who still found it possible to cause large amounts of mischief.) I deleted it by mistake. But lucky for me.. My Mother in law fw. it on to me again. ( knowing my grief and sense of humor I'm sure.)
It made me feel better as a parent and mother of boys. While I am grateful they haven't tried most of these ( yet!) Well, they probably won't unless Jameson reads this and then I might want to make sure the clorox is up high as well as brake fluid. and unplug the washing machine.( and of course be gald I don't own a water bed)
It always makes me smile.( and secretly grateful that my boys haven't tried these...)
Maybe next post I'll put down all the funny( now, not then) things they have done!
If you have boys. Hopefully you can smile.( and be grateful with me) IF you don't well you are missing out on some pretty clever mischief.( which I guess you can secretly be grateful as well)

Boys will be boys. and I wouldn't trade mine for anything( mainly because they keep things.. interesting.)

If anything.. you can always be glad that YOUR kid never did this and have a laugh.
I put all my own comments in Italics.
Enjoy~




Interesting things can happen when you have sons like:

1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.

2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.

3. A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tie d to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.

5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat , you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words 'uh oh', it's already too late..

8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it..

9. A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old Man says they can only do it in the movies.

10. Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4- year old Boy.

11. Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.

12. Super glue is forever.

13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.

14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

15. VCR's do not eject 'PB & J' sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.

16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.( I tried this as a child. I'm sure my kids will too.)

17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

18. You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.

19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens. ( I did this too.. . I thought my baby was cold... my mom turned on the oven and smelled a burning plastic baby inside)

20. The fire department in Austin , TX has a 5-minute response time.

21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.

22. It will, however, make cats dizzy.

23. Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

Hmm.. we didn't do the washer... But we did try to take rides in the dryer.

Now for all the Men out there who read this.. please don't try to mix clorox and brake fluid to verify #8!

Tina said...

That is really funny. I am glad they didn't all happen to you too. Though if they did, they would have some great stories to pass down if they survived.

Super-cute! I hadn't seen that before, and I sigh in relief that I have a girl... though I have no doubt she'll come up with her own adventures!
