Hos­san is awe­some, and he makes things look so easy if you don’t see him pan­ick­ing, try­ing to mem­o­rise scripts because they’ve been given to him at the last minute.

He speaks French so well that if you were stranded on a desert island that was a French colony, you’d want him to be in […]

Blood still boil­ing from the dis­cov­ery of yesterday’s Razor TV cov­er­age of the same restau­rant buy­ing and serv­ing giant grouper that CNA talked about last month, Naomi did a lit­tle research and found that not only is this big fish a vul­ner­a­ble species, it is also likely to be poisonous […]

Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb… If you sing that to the tune of the score from “Jaws”, you’ll be able to warn oth­ers about our fine country’s “trusted” news sources.

Oh, so that’s what a tantrum sounds like

Kai is grow­ing really quickly. Every day he comes up with some­thing new. Like yes­ter­day morn­ing, he tried tak­ing off his pyja­mas on his own — and I know I can’t be both­ered to word the event in a more excit­ing fash­ion, because if you’re not a par­ent, you won’t get […]

To accom­pany last month’s word of the month, “cul­vert”, comes a term from the Home Team, and it is “self-radicalisation”.

I’ve been swamped with work lately, and have only caught snip­pets of what this ‘self-radicalisation’ means in today’s inter­net and new media age.

On July 10, 2010 · Leave a Comment · In Parenting

He said it loudly and clearly — pos­si­bly the clear­est he’s every pro­nounced any (Eng­lish) word. The rest are approx­i­ma­tions which we accept because he’s a baby and we’re his parents.

“Chicken”, he said. And then Mama took out her iPhone and tried to make him repeat the word. As you’d expect, […]
