Mo Hawg - Week 18


Day 1.

   According to today’s regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were kids (or piglets) in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s and even 1960s, 1970s and the early 1980s should not have survived! For those who have come along since then, Mo presents: “I Can’t Believe We Made It” for Today: We had no childproof lids or locks on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bicycles, we had no helmets.  We survived.

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today:  A puppy always had bad breath – even after eating a Tic-Tac.

   Mo’s good friend, Steve Kelly, from Tennessee sent these for us all to enjoy.  We’ll call them our “Out of the Mouths of Babes” Answers for Today:  In reply to the question, “What kind of little girl was your mom?” answers from the little ones in the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “My mom has always been my mom and none of that other stuff.”  “They say she used to be nice.”  “I don’t know because I wasn’t there, but my guess would be pretty bossy.”

Day 2.

      In Japan, they have replaced the impersonal and unhelpful computer error message with Haiku poetry message.  Mo knows about Haiku.  (It has strict construction rules with only 17 syllables allowed in each poem; 5 syllables in the first line, 7 syllables in the second line and 5 in the third line.) 
   Mo presents actual error messages from Japan: “Chaos reigns within.  Reflect, repent and reboot.  Order shall return.”

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: Never hold a dustbuster and a cat at the same time.

  Mo’s good friend, Steve Kelly, from Tennessee sent these for us all to enjoy.  We’ll call them our “Out of the Mouths of Babes” Answers for Today:  In reply to the question, “What did your mom need to know about your dad before she married him?” answers from the little ones in the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “His last name.”  “She had to know his background.  Like did he say NO to drugs and YES to chores.”

Day 3.

   According to today’s regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were kids (or piglets) in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s and even 1960s, 1970s and the early 1980s should not have survived! For those who have come along since then, Mo presents: “I Can’t Believe We Made It” for Today: We did not have Playstations, Nintendo 64, X-Boxes, no video games at all, no 150 channels on cable TV (if we had a TV at all), video taped movies, surround sound, personal cell phones, personal computers or Internet chat rooms.  We survived.

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: Don’t wear polka-dot underwear under white shorts.

   Mo’s good friend, Steve Kelly, from Tennessee sent these for us all to enjoy.  We’ll call them our “Out of the Mouths of Babes” Answers for Today:  In reply to the question, “Why did your mom marry your dad?” answers from the little ones in the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “My dad makes the best spaghetti in the world.  My mom eats a lot.” “She got too old to do anything else with him.”  “Grandma says that mom didn’t have her thinking cap on.”

Day 4.  

   Mo’s good friend, Buck Buchanan from Vacaville, California – a decorated World War II  Flying Ace and hero – sent along his personal rules and truths about healthy eating.  Mo is glad to share Buck’s insight and knowledge with you!  Finally, a diet and lifestyle Mo can do!
   Buck’s Healthy Eating Truths: (Mo knows that these are for fun! Please do not take these to your doctor and ask him if you can adopt this way of life and eating!)
   Mo & Buck, should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
   Mo and Buck answer: Well, Bubba, you just grasp logistical efficiencies.  What does a cow eat?  Hay and corn.  What are these?  Vegetables.  So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system.  If you want grain, eat chickens.  Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). 

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: If you want a kitten, start out by asking for a horse.
      
Day 5.

  According to today’s regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who were kids (or piglets) in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s and even 1960s, 1970s and the early 1980s should not have survived! For those who have come along since then, Mo presents: “I Can’t Believe We Made It” for Today: The idea of parents bailing us out if we got in trouble in school or broke a law was unheard of.  Parents actually sided with the school or the law.  We survived.

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: Felt-tip markers are not good to use as lipstick.

   Mo’s good friend, Steve Kelly, from Tennessee sent these for us all to enjoy.  We’ll call them our “Out of the Mouths of Babes” Answers for Today:  In reply to the question, “Who’s the boss at your house?” answers from the little ones in the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “I guess mom is, but only because she has a lot more to do than dad.”  “Mom.  You can tell by room inspection.  She sees the stuff under the bed.”
