The Plight of the Unicorn / Melon Heresy at its Finest

Ok, so I like t shirts. Put me in jail. I don't have enough. Truth be told, I could probably get a spare dresser full of t shirts and it wouldn't be enough...

Anyhow, I like funky t shirts but not too funky. This site, threadless.com has t shirts for $10 every once and a while, so i got two. One of them was this: entitled: biblical disaster.

She immediately thought I was mocking God. Sure it combines intriguing elements of Noah's Ark, the sinking of the Titanic (note the iceberg) and more importantly, note who is not making it into the lifeboat...No that is not the unsinkable Molly Brown, it is a Unicorn.

To me, this is average Melon fare for explaining why there are no Unicorns today. A pretty good story using known elements. Most of my stories are like this.

But to Mel, she sees it as proof we'll not be hanging out together in the great beyond (I suspect she believes my ticked is punched for an alternate destination...)

Then again, it is just a t shirt...right? We'll see if I get stoned (people throwing rocks at me, not me getting baked, not me getting in an oven, getting high, no not on a plane...sheesh...). What do you think? Will you be throwing rocks at me? (please limit your theoretical rock throwing for reasons limited to this shirt). Thanks.

-truth be told (and really this is just me trying to avoid the silent treatment from Mel) I suspect she only got a glimpse of the sinking ark. And really, there are life boats so I still don't know what the big deal is...

Just make sure on your death bed, to accept "the Lord Jesus" into your heart and you will be washed clean of your sins...

really, at that point, what do you have to lose?

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
