Happy Birthday to our very own Bigwig. Bigwig turns older today though, honestly, I’ve lost count on which one this might be. I can barely remember my own age any more. Happy Birthday, Brother. Hope you have a good one.
As part of…..Bible School, or Father’s Day, or some such occasion, Ngnat presented her mother and I with a number of coupons good for various things, such as “A big hug,” or “Cleaning my room.” Very cute.
One was for “Seding the Table.” Even Cuter!
So last night, I redeemed it, giving it back to her with an attached note, which read “echo table | sed s/table/”table with plates, utensils and glasses”/
Neither she nor the Sainted Wife thought it was as funny as I did.
This month’s loan goes to Lualuai Niutua, of Samoa.
