Conversations with Chuckles

Chuckles

Chuckles loves to talk.  He has been saying some rather funny and interesting things lately.

The kids have been enjoying watching the show " The Great Escape". Chuckles was wondering out loud to himself why they chose certain locations.  Then he bust out saying, " I know because they are iconic."  That really took me back as I don't usually find 10 years old boys using that word. However this is the same kid that regularly says, " I am down in the mouth." So I asked him, "Do you even know what iconic is?"  He said, "Famous." Well "OK", I said.

He starts by saying, "I love marinating Nonna's lawn with that tool."  I am thinking to myself, "What does he mean. Then it dawns on me he means he enjoys aerating Nonna's lawn."

We were listening to the radio and they were advertising Christmas in July.  He remarked, " Christmas in July and Boxing Day in July, what next Christmas at Halloween."  Me thinks, he listens to a little too much Canadian Radio.

My cousin and I are technically brothers except we never argue.  I was thinking to myself, " Yeah, brothers from another mother."
