Just as I sat down to start writing tonight about how I spelled Cleveland wrong and nobody mentioned it, neither my more sarcastic, but dearly loved followers or Mama Badger or Literal Mom who are actually from Ohio, Supreme Leader walks over and writes "fair well" and "farewell" in front of me and asks which one is correct. She's not polite like you.
Impressionist Vader
This is a cute video, and all the more so because it's a true story.
If you're interested, you can see the new soccer pitch on Google maps here.
Poor little Liam, he's been sick off and on since... since I can't even remember. He's a magnet for viruses and bacteria, and lucky him, just about everything has started blooming around here just in time to kick his allergies in the ass. I took this picture a week or so back when he was so tired of wiping his nose he decided to just lay the tissue on the floor and lay his face on it.
And now that you're feeling all sorry for him, let me tell you about how he used his penis for a little ventriloquist act in the bath tub tonight... or not.

SL is awesome. You knew that though. Poor Liam. Ventriloquist penis aside (what is wrong with you boys?) I DO feel sorry for him. Indy and I both have terrible, terrible allergies so I feel his pain. Literally. If he'll let you do it, try using a Neti Pot on him. It's gross and disgusting (and he *may* think you're trying to drown him-and some days you might actually *be*), but it will change his world. I use it year long. It is great for allergies, sinuses, colds and all manner of other nasty viruses that invade through the nasal passages.
ReplyDeleteJust be thankfull he put a tissue there.
ReplyDeleteOh man...good thing he had a tissue there. My kid wouldn't have bothered..
ReplyDeleteOscar is sitting on my lap this morning and was quite amused by that photo of Darth Vader. "Why's he holding an umbrella? Why's he standing in flowers? That's silly! He lives in space on a ship."
ReplyDeleteI did notice the typo, but I was too polite to tell you. Cause I'm just that socially acceptable.
ReplyDeletePoor Liam. Nose gook will put a serious hamper on your mischief. Which is good for you, but bad for him. My kids wouldn't have used a tissue either.
haha...ventriloquist...hope he is feeling better....and cool story ont he football team, very inspiring...
ReplyDeleteI love Darth's flowing robes. Very romantic.
ReplyDeleteThat video was awesome! Brought a little feel good tear to my eye. Very cool.
Random Friday needs to include bunny. Google Rika Satou for the win.
ReplyDeleteWell, you never told the story about Cleveland, so I wasn't sure if it was some alternate reality or not. That, and I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
ReplyDeleteHuh, I thought since people are always leaving Cleveland, you were right the first time..
ReplyDeleteLove the picture!
Wow! So the booger raft is more of a barge right now! Hope he feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the soccer video--it almost got me out of my doldrums regarding my upcoming season with the Bad News Bears Part 7. Incredible. Thanks for posting!
Can't wait to share Darth with the son when he gets home!
I thought the misspelling was intentional. :)
ReplyDeleteVader with parasol - never thought I'd see that...
Next Liam will construct an elaborate Kleenex mask!
I think your RTT tribute should continue next work week...because I'm lovin' it. I'm selfish like that.
Happy RTT!!
The picture of Liam of sad and funny (does that make me a bad person?). As for Cleveland, let's be honest: no one cares. It's Cleveland.
ReplyDeletePoor Liam. Yes, I still feel sorry for him even with the penis ventriloquist thing but now I'm just LMAO while I feel sorry for him. :D
ReplyDeleteI usually just stick the toilet paper up my nose, but if it is really runny then I end up with bits of paper stuck up there. I like Liam's idea better.
ReplyDeleteVIDEO ROCKS!!!!!!!! thank you - i needed that today!!
ReplyDeleteand yeah yeah, poor Liam (feel better soon kid) and poor maligned Clevelnda....
ReplyDeleteI feel Liam's pain, though not yet in these here parts! My solution--around his age-- was to basically create tissue plugs in each of my nostrils and replace them hourly. It at least staunched the raging river. Many decades later that is still my solution, until the drugs I buy from the bad part of Paris kick in anyway! ha. Ok, maybe not those drugs, but definitely others ;)
ReplyDeleteVideo rocked, had to tweet it, Mercy Buckets.
I tried that ventriloquist act myself. I too, needed some tissues.
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure your blog hates me now because I have left two separate comments and they have not shown up. There might have been tears. *sniffle*
ReplyDeleteWhat I wanted to say, but apparently the blog elves are censoring is that my husband (who is 36 btw) does that ventriloquist thing too. And the helicopter. I seriously do not know how you boys walk around with those things.
I should be ashamed of myself, not catching the wrong spelling. Probably has to do with lack of sleep. And thanks for the shout-out!
ReplyDeleteRandom for today: drinking 3 cosmopolitans on a Wednesday night does not make for a productive Thursday. Not that I did that or anything, I'm just saying that's a very likely, proveable theory if anyone wants to try it.
That cracked me up. Thanks man, I am having a long work week.
ReplyDeleteI hear Roberto Luongo does the same thing in the bath.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about the Liam's illin' troubles. Here's hoping he feels better very soon.
ReplyDeleteAs to the soccer vid: เป้าหมาย !!!!!!
HA! You shouldn't have owned up to it. I thought the misspellings were intentional. You know...cleavage...flash....
ReplyDeleteWhoever painted Darth Vader on the hillside is a flippin' GENIUS.
Saw the soccer video and almost had to pull out a hanky.
And speaking of hankies, awwwwwwww for Liam. Forget the tissue, buddy. Put your head down on a diaper. That'll be better.
That part about the penis ventriloquist had me on the floor...that is hysterical!
ReplyDeleteI want that Vader painting in my living room.
ReplyDeleteI loved that video. Thanks. I'd never have seen that on my own.
ReplyDeleteTell him there's a better way to catch the snot. Just stuff tissue up each nostril and go about your day. Works swimmingly... although, not very attractive. Being that he's a wee one, he can get away with it!
ReplyDeleteThat video totally made me cry. And wish that I could inspire people to believe in themselves like that...
ReplyDeleteI understand how Liam feels. Blowing your nose is really exhausting. Don't they have netti pots in your part of the world? I just got one this year, but I would think children would get a kick out of them. Maybe not. I haven't had a small child for a long time.
