Boys, Dinosaurs and Doing Without
Much in popularity of late is the nifty dinosaur set Trevor received from Ardith for being the ringbearer.
Trevor and Nolan were "doing a story" with said ferocious pieces of plastic, before breakfast. It included the usual dinosaur sounds, plus a few added effects from space stories, and random references to Kung Fu Panda....
Ma: "Hey guys...not so loud..."
Nolan: "But dinosaurs ARE loud."
Trevor: "Yeah, WEAL loud!"
(back to their story)
Nolan: "OK...these guys had a fantastic plan....it would make vegetation spring up, right in front of them!"
*more eating and blasting noises*
Trevor: "And THESE guys wu-hoh cloaked!"
Trevor: "THESE guys wu-hoh DOU-BOH cloaked, so you couldn't see them at all! "
*space noises*
Nolan: "And then (holds up huge T-Rex), the KING guy got attacked..."
"POW, POW, POW...!"
Nolan: "And he asked, 'Hey, why did you guys attack me?' "
Trevor: (dutifully repeating) "Hey, why did you guys attack me?"
Nolan: "We didn't attack you...Punch him! PUNCH PUNCH PUNCH! HI-YA !"
Trevor: "Hi-YA !!"
....later that day....
Nolan: "Hey Mommy, this is a ship that can MAKE dinosaurs."
"hmmmmm"
Trevor: "...and this is the Dinosaur Crystal of Power."
"uh-huh"

I am only now beginning to feel the full deprivation of being limited to amusements like Tinker Toys and Lincoln Logs.
I did, however, watch many of the original Star Trek episodes, and they can't take that away from me, oh no...they can't take that away from me.

All you let me see before I was 9 was Next Generation.
It's pretty much your father's and Jason's faults.
Daddy got computers going for all the kids--at this house--and Jason went and left his Star Trek Armada game at home, which the boys found.
