and Thomas Alva Edison bored his teacher(s) to frustration with his questions

As a child, my favorite question was “Why?” ✨

It’s hard to believe Shannon would ever question herself. She seems so confident.

Her questions indicate a sharp mind.

You could heat the pool but would probably never notice and the Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupt breaker would likely shut it down.

A potty bucket seat would be uncomfortable more often than it would be useful.

Yes, Spanish for “moo” is moo.

The real question is why don’t girls have that throat lump, Eve’s Apple.

Plant use minerals and water in soil to build food with light and elements in the atmosphere.

(I put them to sleep with answers.)

Oy-ey. Brad is sleeping on a LOVE seat, not a couch. Only a child can sleep on a love seat horizontally. With TJ, you’d think they have a couch on which all three can sit. Unless TJ is relegated to an armchair or they don’t sit together at the same time. Toni, you need to invest in a longer couch for Brad considering that Shannon is over your house frequently. Or ask TJ to move out so Shannon can have her own room.

Toni, you need to tell your irresponsible brothers DNA that she sleeps on the couch and that’s it. Grow up!

Toni, while you making love with Brad what happens if Shannon wakes up during the night and does not see you and comes looking for you.

Shannon is a bright child, full of curiosity and in spite of what seems to be a somewhat feckless single dad, seems to be a well-adjusted, confident 6 year old. Toni will somehow fit on that love seat with Brad, or they will relocate to the floor I would bet. So where is this going? We have been fraught with so much comedy-drama lately; can this just be a nice, what some would call a sweet, booooring set of panels? Nah, something must be coming, odds 70/30. What might it be? Or is it more likely to be the 3 out of 10, instead of the 7?

“That, and a two shot of bourbon, and she was out.”

Now, sing Brad a lulabye.

Goodnight Moon,

Goodnight Goon…

OK – Shannon’s a sharp 6 year old. Done. Next arc…

From the album “Sin, Soul… and then Some” by Oscar Brown, Jr. comes this song for fathers of Inquisitive kids:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTsU_xoNyMY

I’m surprised that all Shannon’s questions didn’t lull Toni to sleep, too…

Shannon belongs to the “Y” generation alright.

Will Shannon find out the meaning of ‘coitus interruptus’

How does Toni have perfect hair when she gets out of bed??

Both Brad and Toni couldn’t seem to get to sleep tonight. I wonder what’s up? Oh. … Never mind!

I think I’d rather sleep on the floor, or better yet, Brad and Toni should invest in a nice air mattress …. of course that would take away the comedic effect of a grown-up person trying to sleep on an undersize loveseat ….

What in Thee Good Hell was this week all about?

I Keep six honest serving-men: (They taught me all I knew) Their names are What and Where and When And How and Why and Who. I send them over land and sea, I send them east and west; But after they have worked for me, I give them all a rest.

I let them rest from nine till five.For I am busy then,As well as breakfast, lunch, and tea,For they are hungry men:But different folk have different views:I know a person small—She keeps ten million serving-men,Who get no rest at all!She sends ‘em abroad on her own affairs,From the second she opens her eyes—One million Hows, two million Wheres,And seven million Whys.- Rudyard Kipling

@Airman (your “reply” buttons aren’t working):

As I predicted 2 days ago, Toni would let Shannon fall asleep, then go out and jump Brad right there on the couch.

That may happen, but we won’t be seeing it.

My favorite line from Woody Guthrie’s kid question song “Why oh Why?” was “Why can’t a mouse eat a street car?”

So beautiful. Just so beautiful. God bless the children! Thank you… My youngest is now 14, and wonderful, but part of me does miss those days!

ah the childhood philosopher phase, lets you know their brains are developing normally

Reminds me of an episode of the sitcom “Wings” ….the old geezer Carlton Blanchard and his stupid questions

maybe I’m awake dreaming that I’m asleep. Or, or more likely, I’m asleep dreaming that I’m awake wondering if I’m dreaming. (From ‘Ladyhawk’)

There seems to be considerable fear that Brad and Toni will be seriously harmed by foregoing one night of copulation. I can tell you from experience that they will be fine.

Forget what they say about Tomcats, this Toni-cat is on the prowl and ready for a walk on the wild side.

@AIRMAN: I think you’ve gotten lost. The ‘toon you want is called ’9 Chickweed Lane’.

I hope Shannon sleeps soundly and long enough for the adults to do some adulting….

And now for some… uh… couch fun?

Something tells that Brad and Toni will be adopting soon….

tomorrow: Knute and Crystal wonder what they’re still doing here!
