Quotes

So last fall, I think it was, Michael lost about 30 pounds. He would weigh himself on our Wii. For any of you who have the Wii Fit, you know that once it weighs you, it tells you what category you fall into - normal, overweight, obese, etc. So yesterday during dinner for some reason we were talking about weight, and Elliot asked Michael,

E: Papa, what was your number when you were the Beast?

M: The Beast?

E: Before, when we had the Wii, and papa was the Beast?

Me: You mean, when papa was obese?

E: Oh, I thought he was the Beast.

"8:15! Well I better spank my bottom!"
