So I said to the boy last week: Do your homework!
He claimed he didn’t have any, so I signed his empty homework book and sent him to school. Happened five days before I wrote a note to his teacher. She said they have homework every day, but that he has not handed in his book to be signed by her.
Much anger, many tears. I’ll never do that again, Dad, he said, but today he did it again…
I loved the 70’s TV program, the incredible hulk, with Lou Ferrigno. I especially like the opening sequence where he rescues a woman who is stuck under a car (sic? Can’t remember…) Anyway, after David Banner is affected by some kind of radiation (Gamma Rays, ditto?), if he gets really, really mad, he becomes triple his size, his skin goes green, and he suddenly wears stuffed up purple pants. Why purple? What happened to the original pants? Did he not suffer from stretch marks?
Which is exactly how I felt, today…
