Lio by Mark Tatulli for August 07, 2014

Right on, Lio!

He actually bought the encyclopaedias.

Lio is such a smart lad! Read a book, everyone, and turn off the brainwashing devices!

Yup! Proves contentment is just one click away…

I knew there was a reason I’ve always liked this kid. Lio is one smart cookie.

(from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory)

“The most important thing we’ve learned,So far as children are concerned,Is never, NEVER, NEVER letThem near your television set–Or better still, just don’t installThe idiotic thing at all.In almost every house we’ve been,We’ve watched them gaping at the screen.They loll and slop and lounge about,And stare until their eyes pop out.(Last week in someone’s place we sawA dozen eyeballs on the floor.)”

always the right decision

Never mind.

Lio — you da MAN!

“I find television very educational. Every time someone turns it on I leave the room and read a book.” – Groucho Marx

My Satellite TV has a great selection of music channels. I use them when the blather grates. This morning I’m enjoying some 60s rock, later some “smooth jazz”, maybe…

Smart kid! There should be more like him!

All right, Lio!

Wise beyond his years,
