Yesterday’s corner time: 4 Minutes.
I was at the bookshelf again yesterday, trying to reach the “Art of War”. Needless to say, I still can’t reach it, so Becca’s comeuppance will have to wait.
Anyway, having spent a few minutes perusing some of the other titles in my parent’s collection, I 'm now officially worried about my gene pool.
I asked Dad where I came from and he said that I had come free with a packet of cornflakes from Walmart and in protest, he's never shopped there again.
Unfortunately, it turns out that he was just joking, so now I'm really concerned because our shelves are filled with books entitled “…. For Dummies” and “The Idiots guide to ….”.
Are my parents complete imbeciles? Are they really that stupid? The books suggest that they are. I’m amazed that they leave them in full view of everyone.
I’m so embarrassed that I’ve started to squirrel away these books around the house.
Only last night, Dad was asking if anyone had seen his “Quantum Physics for Dummies”.
Honestly, does the man have no shame?
I’ve hidden it in Becca’s nappy draw – he’ll never go there.
Matthew.

Hey, don't count the nappy drawer out. If he fights with mom she might refuse to change diapers for a day and stick him with the job, then you're screwed.
Ah, yes. Good thinking. The dirty laundry basket may be a safer bet.
