It seems that The Kids found out where I hid the remote. The Younger strode into the
Computer Room and headed straight for it. “No,” I said. “You are
not to get the remote.”
“But why not?” said the Younger. “I need it!” He gave me his angry
pouting stare, and sat down on the other chair in the room. Well, it's not
actually sitting per se, more of a squirming ever moving sitting.
“Do you know why I'm hiding it?”
“Yea,” he said. “Mom told us earlier.”
“So you realize it's because I hate playing ‘Find the Remote’
every single night. So no more remote for you.”
The Younger then switched to his pouty-angry stare, sat there whining and
squirming for another few seconds, then ran off. Two minutes later he
completely forgot about the remote and was yelling at his brother to switch
the channel.
And to think I was worried that The Kids just didn't care about the
remote and my actions would have no effect.
Muahahahahahahaha.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
