Unkind To Monkeys

How in the world do people find time to blog? I was hoping for about a post/day, and I’ve yet to post anything of substance.

Well, here’s something anyway: Come to my talk! I’ll be talking about Shoes, why the lucky stiff’s GUI framework at the Dallas Tech Fest on May 3rd. The Tech Fest is free(!) but you do need to register. Go to http://dallastechfest.com for details.

I have a daughter we can call Rabbit Ears and a son we’ll call Hammer Down. Here’s a recent conversation:

Me: Yes, monkeys do too have red butts.
Hammer Down: No! Monkey’s don’t have red butts!
Me: Yes, they do.
Rabbit Ears: No they don’t!
Me: Rabbit Ears, everybody knows monkeys have red butts.
Rabbit Ears: Well everybody knows you’re unkind to monkeys!!
