1. Exactly how old is Mickey Mouse and his little Clubhouse friends? I mean, clearly they are old enough to be living on their own and they drive. However, if they are that old, why are they doing a show for pre-schoolers? Seems creepy.
2. Do Diego and Dora's parents know that they are off galavanting around the world saving animals in peril and having other such adventures? I mean, I don't really even like Kinley to play in the basement by herself for too long, mostly because I know she is making a ginormous mess rather than helping an injured animal. I am just waiting for the day when Kinley tries to jump in a space ship to go rescue some tiny little aliens and I have to say, "um, Kinley, you are too young to be going into outer space all by yourself." And then she'll be like, "uh, mom, Dora does it all the time. Get a grip." What do I say to that???
3. Why oh why do I continue to see hand gestures at the 4-way stop sign as a means of determining whose turn it is? I mean, honestly, YIELD TO THE PERSON ON THE RIGHT! It's not rocket science. And roundabouts...don't even get me started.
4. When a door is clearly labeled "enter" and the other door clearly labeled "exit", why are we still confused as to which door to use? I know it's not really a big deal, but I'm a rule follower and I like organization and order. I think this world already has enough chaos.
5. I have seen numerous commercials or ads, if you will, of high fructose corn syrup defending itself. First, I would like to know who exactly launched the attack against high fructose corn syrup, I mean geez high fructose corn syrup, a bit touchy are we? Second, I would like to know if high fructose corn syrup thinks that its ads are winning people back, assuming they ever quit consuming the product. I think comparing yourself to sugar, which we all know isn't so great for us, may not be your best move. You should maybe discuss with your campaign adviser comparing yourself to something nutritional like vegetables or fruit.
Okay, thanks for listening, I'm done for today.

wow, I hope you feel better now. Please don't start throwing popcorn at the TV when Dora comes on, it might not be good for Kinley to see that ;)
I agree!! If you think Dora and Diego are bad, try watching Max and Ruby. There are NO parents in that one, poor Ruby who we guess is 7 or 8 spends all day taking care of Max with all the patience of a saint. Savannah caught on one day and asked-where are the parents? Why do they get to walk to the store by themselves?
You have added a new item to my list of things that drive me nuts. Since I read your blog I have noticed how many people rely on waving people through intersections. Why can't we just yield to the right?
Marlyce, I am with you on the cartoon thing. What are these people trying to teach are kids. And it really bugs me even though it shouldnt that in alot of the cartoons they have the dads as the bread winners.
And for the driving thing people need to just know what I am thinking and do as I wont the to. I dont get road rage at all.
I can definitely see your point about these frustrations. I've always wondered why cartoon characters always have animals as best friends. Dora and Boots? Come on, running around with a monkey would be a cause for concern.
I LOVE YOU! Now you have me thinking about all of those things! I will NEVER sleep now! You got me on dora and diego!
I am totally with you on the show thing!! It doesn't make any sense! It's nice to see Im not the only one who thinks about these things to!
The chemist with a psych degree that one I leave to fate. What were just college jobs ended up being a nice career! I think I have been through Fall Creek before when I was house hunting last year. I would be happy to drop off A.J. for a date night! Angel and I were just talking about that last night babysitters and what not. Of course the offer would stand for you guys too. You guys could come trick or treat our house on Friday if you wanted. We will be home probably just going to watch a movie. A.J. goes to bed early.
