Joe: Hey, how was school today, Danae? Danae: Bilditty loom zoenict van amerongen, oompa dink libbity loop homma humina! Gipbel gook? Joe: One of these days I'm gonna learn to stop asking that question...
@Psychlady- Have you ever priced Rosetta Stone? The TV freebie doesn’t prepare you any more for the cost than it prepares you for Danae. Talk about sticker shock!
I’ve once owned a vacuum cleaner exactly like the one Danae’s father is using but that was long before I even dreamed of having a daughter learning great stuff from our school system.

One of the very rare cases where subtitles would be kind of helpful- in the comments, not the storyline!

We’ll all need Rosetta Stone by the time she’s done – and no one will understand anyway, because Danae, being Danae, will keep changing it!

I’m picturing an oompa loompa with Jackie Gleason’s face. To the moon, Danae!

@Astute Social Observer- Would that be the Patrick Stewart version, metaphorically speaking?

Is it just me, or has Danae grown?

When she goes back to school I foresee a trip to the Pricipal’s office for Danae.
