Delirious-
I was thinking the same thing with your backpack comment, but I've pretty much learned to not reach in there anymore. My wife, however,still makes the mistake occasionally.

Nene- I'm going to the pantry right now and looking for the potatoe. Perhaps my son is off the hook this time...probably not but maybe.

eutychus said...

lol- I wrote "potatoe" -Doh!

Delirious said...

Don't worry Eutychus, even the Vice President had trouble with that one. ;) lol

Nene said...

Eutychus, isn't a "potatoe" the thing that grows out of a potato when you it them in the pantry too long? jk - :0)

That's funny! If it's not it should be! Sounds like a new game!

On another note- do you have a family member in the military? Reason I ask is that some of your responses (reference to Skype and someone coming through airport security) makes me think you might. I used skype a few times while in Iraq. Just curious.

You guys are hilarious! I just can't compete. Maybe I'll come back if I think of something.

Cool stuff
I didn't realize these answers would show a glimpse of little things about you all ;-)

Most interesting is the answers for touching.

Every one has a negative connotation.

Goo in the backpack
Scheduled ... hmmm
Invading another's space

:-)

Leaning toeward Delirious

woops got potatoe in my head ...

which incidentally is a stew made of toes.

It's yours D

Delirious said...

Okay, I'm leaving a comment just so I can set our next round of play. :)

Delirious said...

bah...it didn't give me a word verification.

eutychus said...

Val- "Scheduled" isn't a negative connotation. The fireworks display on the 4th of July is scheduled...;-)

Valorosa said...

Thanks for letting me in on that Eutychus ;-)
