Snippets and Guitar Hero

Happy 1 year Wedding Anniversary to me and my Teddy Bear!

For our anniversary TB bought Chicken his own guitar hero guitar. He said that it was Chicken's gift for being his official stepson for a whole year, and for Chicken putting up with him. The guitar is a plug-in model, smaller and whiter than our original one. Chicken has named it "white boy" after the following stylings of Wild Cherry.


That's my kid.

His current player on Guitar Hero is the Grim Ripper. As he looked remarkably like the Grim Reaper I inquired as to the name. Chicken insists that it is the Grim Ripper. Why? "Because he rips," quoth the Chicken. Rock on my son. Rock on.*

Lastly, overheard in the Sam household this evening:

Teddy Bear: "Chicken come here!"
Chicken: "Yes, father of mine," in a sweet but scary little orphan boy about to murder us all in our sleep way.

*Yes that is ending a sentence in a preposition but I feel that the rule is waived when you are encouraging someone to rock on. It's a cool thing, you wouldn't get it.

As a professor of the English language I feel compelled to mention that you are setting a bad example. You should have told the child to rock out with his cock out, and his shrill, gleeful laughter would've drowned out everything after the word "cock."

And you call yourself a teacher and parent. FOR SHAME.

I've waived the preposition rule on a number of occasions, but Eliza'a solution is perfect!

Happy Anniversary, kids!
