Joe and Em were watching "RepoGames" and the question posed to the guy trying to save his car from being repossessed was "How many months have the letter 'e' in their name?". I'm ashamed to admit that this was an actual, honest-to-goodness conversation in my house last night:
"Hmmmm....how many months have an 'e' in their name?" Joe says to no one in particular.
"February. That's one. June. September..." Em helps him along.
"No, it doesn't. February doesn't have an 'e' in it."
"Yes it does. FEB....bruary"
"No, it doesn't. February does NOT have an 'e' in it."
Tsk. "YES it does! FEB.....F....E....B....."
"No, it doesn't."
"YES it DOES! F.....EEEE.....B...." Em's gonna kill him at this point.
"Oh. I was thinking of January." To which Em and I just look at each other.
I live with idiots.

What? Life is all about spelling?
It could be male menopause!
There is no E in January. What's the problem?
WV = precogw
Men! Gotta love 'em or else we would kill them...They hear but they don't listen - not even to themselves.
Haha Grace :-)
Joe-my hero. I do stuff like that.
Hobbes looks like he has the life. I have had similar conversations with my 12 year old. She is convinced she is right, even with overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
Well, maybe he was really thinking of August
Maybe Joe just wanted another day being mentioned on your blog! It couldn't really be that he was thinking of January while Em was spelling F...EEEEE...B, could it? LOL
I think it was a trick question.
So really? There's no e in January? I mean it sounds like there is. Jan u air eeeeeee......lol
Vanilla--Well, not at our house. :)
Hot Rocks--It has to be. At least he has an excuse then, right?
Chuck--Hee! Hee! Don't side with him, Chuck.
Grace--I love when Joe thinks out loud--it's very entertaining to hear his thought process.
Helene--It's scary to sit there and listen to them. I quit the conversation mid-point out of mere frustration.
Anne--At least you can say she is a kid! Joe is an adult! A very scary adult, but an adult!
Pricilla--Oh, don't encourage him!!
Beaded Tail--Shhhhh. Don't tell him I wrote this on the blog today!
Daisy--I think it was too. And in case you were wondering, the guy didn't get it right on TV either and his car was repossessed. :(
Ann--Hahaha! Please don't encourage him, Ann!!
Some come to your blog for the posts-I come to your log for the posts and for the comments. OMG you guys crack me up!
Helene--Not only do I have the best Blog Theme Song EVER, but I have the BEST commentors too! :) The comments always make me laugh.
