Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 15, 2014

Remember doing this, and how much fun it was, and how your hair stood up?

Stactic Elastricity!Teach it to every child!

Tis the season for static folly. Fa la la la la….

I didn’t even notice she mispronounced it till mom mentioned it.

Mrs Otterloop is the BEST Mom

Alice is wonderful, and Mrs. Otterloop knows it. But it wasn’t really very nice of Alice and Nara (and whoever else) to laugh at poor Dill, that bunch of grapes!

When I was growing up our neighbors nada small boy who would pronounce octopus as oggeepus. He got so angry at having to repeat it after countless requests that he would shout out…OGGEEPUS!

One of my kitties must generate static electricity – every time I reach out to pet her, sparks fly! Sometimes we both jump when I touch her. She has gotten used to it and still wants to be petted. She is the only one of my cats that it happens with.

I love little ones pronunciation of words. Elastricity is great! Had a friend who would say ‘risky’ instead of risque. My husband says ‘Marmalduke’ instead of Marmaduke. I never try to correct them. Too cute.

My children used to call it “psgetti”
