Pyrotechnics and politics


'Mater (the Children's father), The Children and I convoyed to the park. My mission was to lead a group of individuals in vigorous calisthenics. The Children and 'Mater went off to conquer the playground equipment.  Both missions were fairly successfully. During the convoy back to Home Base, Boy Child established comms via cell phone with Mother and related the day's events. The conversation went as follows:

                Boy Child: I jumped off a cliff and did a booty bump!

                Mother:  *indistinguishable loud noises*

The cliff was a 12 inch step and the booty bump is what happens when you jump onto a pile of slippery pine needles and land on  your tush. Boy Child appears to lean towards exaggeration. I see politics in his future. Blondie was very amused by the booty bump description and lost control of her senses as she collapsed into laughter.

At Home Base, 'Mater conducted an inspection of The Children's living quarters and recovered a box of sparklers from underneath Boy Child's pillow.



Conclusion: Boy Child is using inflammatory rhetoric to rally Actual Mother in Florida to his aid. I believe the sparklers were going to be used as signal flares. Though Boy Child continues to hoard weapons, he appears to want to go solo in this venture as he dimed out Blondie for a stash of toothpicks in her bag. I can only imagine she was trying to make some sort of punji stick from the toothpicks and the still missing gum.
