That reminds me of something I posted in another forum in a thread about drinking on Christmas day:
I decided the only way I could possibly keep up with my nephew the Baby Cougar was to drink coffee -- lots of coffee -- lots and lots of coffee! He's 4 1/2.... While I was guzzling coffee we built things with his Legos. Then we decided to play with his new cowboy guns. Fortunately he had two of them ... he put on the gunbelt and I resorted to Mexican carry. Then he decided they weren't cowboy guns -- they were robber guns! We discussed whether to be stagecoach robbers or bank robbers or train robbers ... a quick reconnaissance (I was moving as fast as he was by that point) discovered no stagecoaches, banks, or trains in the vicinity -- so we decided to be kitchen robbers!
We got the drop on the rest of the family in the kitchen and demanded their lupins but they protested they were unarmed and requested a time-out to arm themselves -- I told them they'd better not try anything because we are very good shots -- we practice every day! Well, almost every day.... Only a few minutes into the warning they drew loaded cameras on us! Watch this thread for pix of a caffeine-crazed Cougar and miniature replica brandishing revolvers and declaiming Monty Python while laughing like loons....
