The Old Man and the Toothpick



It's a new fable, have you heard of it? It happened like this: Josh wanted to prove his strength and brawn and decided to get into it with his father. The best way to bring out the wrestler in Kelly is to call him an "old man". So Josh(still trying to understand how choices and consequnces work), spoke the dreaded name. Kelly froze in his tracks, and usually above the petty name calling, (who am I kidding?) said, "bring it on toothpick!" And off they went. It was over quickly, and the old man was victorous. There are so many days when I think I have five children! Ask Kelly sometime, how this method works with Ryan, who is affectionally called "The Tank!"
