Wolf Scout

Hair Wax

Alli:
He doesn't know what this is and who put it in his hair.

Matt:
Huh?  Sand from the playground?
Did he get into something he wasn't supposed to?

Alli:
Well, he said he didn't know what it was or how it got there. He could see that I was getting pissed that someone would do that to him. The more questions I asked, the more his story started to fall apart. Then I just asked him if there was a chance that he did it to himself because he thought it would be funny.

I got a mumbled meek, "yes," from the backseat.

Then I asked if it was a greater than 50% chance or less than 50% chance.

"Greater."

At least I know what it is, who did it, and as a bonus; we got some math in!

It's wax from one of those cheese discs.

Matt:
Oh man
So he did this to himself?

Alli:
Yes

Matt:
I'm not convinced I feel better about that than some other peckerhead doing it

Alli:
He feels like an idiot

Matt:
I'm not sure if our kids are that bright babe

Such a Dear

Audrey quietly walks into the dining room she just ran screaming from, "I don't care about you," she says calmly and turns around and walks away.
