[Marburg]

When I was a kid, I only outsmarted my parents about 1/2 the time.

At 8 yrs old, cable boxes had a key that scrambled the premium channels & my parents would lock them out all the time before leaving for work & take the key w/ them...I got sick of that & started to lock the channels before they left, & would flip to cartoons & wait for them to leave the house...when they turn the lock & take the key, they never realized they were unlocking it for me for months...I got sick of all the effort that took & eventually had another key made.

But, my parents also had a habit of coming up to me at random intervals & would say: "Alright Kev, we want you to tell us in your own words what you did, & what you think your punishment should be."

every single time I would be forced to mentally go through my prolific rolodex of wrongdoings, & every single time I would fearfully spout numerous things that they had absolutely no clue I did.

no matter how sly you are, I recomend that you disregard eppy's advice because no one is ever really as smart as they think they are.

...parents & kids alike.
