Comfort On A Sick Day

 

Peter Peanut Rescues Mom.

OOOOOOOOHhhhhh, BABY, BABY!

 

OH, that's it, right behind the ears!

 

MMMMMmmmmmmmm.......!

 

Would you be kind enough to do my tummy, too?

 

YES, I'll even put my foot on your hand to roll
me over so you can tickle the right spot!
I'm a "silkie" you know, soooo soft! My tummy
especially and my nose and my ears and my...

 

WHADDA-WHADDA-WHADDA, mom,
why did you stop? MOM?!


"Honey, it's not me, YumYum is transcribing this
since you are not available to type and he just 
discovered a carrot. Sorry, little one, these things
just happen. It's part of growing up, I guess."


Mom, YumYum said your new computer annoys him.
He said some of the keys don't really write what they
say they will and he is annoyed.


@like THAT! it was supposed to be something else.


And you forgetting your new password the minute after
you put it in and having to call the Philippines all the
time and just talk about stuff there since they are mostly
from where Edwin was born.


And you not knowing how to make it wireless and having to call India and you know they are in Mumbai so you play with their
heads and ask about the weather but you already know what it is from the newspaper and you know they are being listened in on and they keep @SEE THAT!  well, you keep making them £??? (this is one WACK computer!) they have to "redirect" you back to the topic but you keep saying "How do you say so-and-so in Hindi?"
and YumYum called you the worst pirate of all when you get those week-long migraines because you get bored and your head hurts and you get tummy-sick and can't eat so you just annoy all the poor people in call centers around the world.


Is that what a Pirate does, ma? Am I one?


Ma?


YumYum: "She fell asleep rubbing your belly, boy, just get used
to it. Now say good night and ask why none of the keys write the
letters they are are supposed to."


"why don't the keys eat watermelon.@£!@"

THE SOCRATIC METHOD...

 

The Socratic Method calls for common sense and common speech.
We shall now demonstrate.
Please continue.

NOM-NOM-NOM-OMMmmmmmmmm...........

 

BHINDI DEMONSTRATES MEDITATION ON "N-OMmmmmmmm......."
Whilst leaving his mouth too full to question the
existential nature of his enterprise, leading us to -

Tinker, Tailor, Philosopher, Spy...Who IS THIS?

 

"Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature.
And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves
are a part of the mystery that we are trying to solve."*


Bhindi: "I thought Max Planck said that."


Peanut: "You need to ask that in the form of a question."


Bhindi: "Like on the T.V. show "Jeopardy?" or something?"


Peanut: "Exactly."


Bhindi: "So, you are comparing Alex Trebek to Socrates?"


Peanut: "Indeed. You formed a question.^ Well done."


Bhindi: "What if I compared Alex Trebek to Max Planck?"


Peanut: "Please use better question form..."


Bhindi: "Is Alex Trebek of the T.V. Show "Jeopardy" the reincarnation of Max Planck?"


Peanut: "EXQUISITELY DONE, BINDI! BRAVISSIMO!"


Bhindi: "No, I mean, is he?"


Peanut: "Ya, sure, dude, LET'S EAT!"

MYSTEREEEEEEEE

 

WHADDA-WHADDA-WHADDA HAVE WE HERE?

 

LOOK WHAT CAME IN THE MAIL FROM FAIRY IN ENGLAND!

 

YUM-YUM, Today mom got a BIG,
GIGANTIC, FLAT BOX FROM 
FAIRY IN ENGLAND!

 

WONDER WHAT IT 
COULD POSSIBLY BE?!


 

MOM has felt "beleaguered" lately, so she
was very happy to get a present PLUS
she also has lots of wunnerful emails from
Fairy about her mum's Birthday yet to open
because she wants to savor every moment
Fairy shares with us...
AND NOW THIS BIG, FLAT
BOX WITH STICKERS 
AND
EVERYTHING AMAZING...hmmmm,
WHEEEEEEEK!
WHATEVER COULD IT BE?
(OR WHOM?)

 

"ARE YOU PANDA-PIG'S
SANCTUARY? HAVE I COME
TO THE RIGHT PLACE IN MY
BIG, FLAT BOX?
(It was a long flight, you understand...")

 

"Oh, I'm staying here no matter...mmmm, scrunchies
in the sun! Home at last! Closing my eyes from jet-lag..."


FAIRY, HOW ON EARTH DID YOU
SEND US SUCH A WONDERFUL 
PRESENT IN A FLAT BOX WHICH
WE STILL HAVEN'T OPENED
BECAUSE OF MOM'S HORIZONTAL,
YET RAPIDLY VANISHING
BELEAGUERMENT?!
WHADDA-WHADDA-WHADDA-
WOW?!

 

I Came a Long Way, Didn't I?

 

BY AIR MAIL!

 

Something tells me I'm going to be
very, very HAPPY here in America!
Look, here's a new friend now, GEEZ,
he's as big as a humpty-back camel! 

 

I LOVE MY NEW HOME AND VINNY
IS SO HAPPY TO FINALLY HAVE SOMEONE TO PLAY WITH ALL THE TIME AND SNUGGLE AND I LOVE BHINDI AND YUM-YUM AND MOM AND JUST
PURR IN THE WARMTH OF HER NECK AS SHE FALLS ASLEEP...TyPiNg...
(Do Americans ever gain ALTITUDE?)
Sweet Dreams.
I don't have a name yet.
Mom calls me "NewPig."
I love you.

May I?

 

Vinny: "I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world. 
Yeah, me!"


Yum-Yum: "Vinny, Albert Einstein said that, not you."
Vinny: "Well, I'm on Runabout and you're not, so..."
Bhindi: "Don't worry! Gonna get that Piggie, YumYum, gonna get him good & steal his whEEk-grass!"


Vinny: "Nom-Noms, mmm... MOM! Need to start a new crop for me...Oh right, she's still "in the shop" so we'll just have to settle for watermelon, at least that's what my imagination saw her chopping up for us last night: Water-Mel-NOMS!
Sometimes I'm just so awesome I just can't stand myself, either...mu-ah-ha-haAAAH!"
