A Pair of Jokers

The boys are turning into real cutups. Their comedic timing is getting sharper and funnier. Being funny comes pretty natural to 8. His older brother has to work at it a little harder. Even so, 11 still gets some good ones in every now and again.

For example, 11 and I were watching the clip of Joe Paterno getting his leg broken by a Wisconsin player last week.

Sarcastro: Joe's been coaching since Jesus died.
Eleven: Which time?

Although not biblically accurate, he nailed that snappy comeback without missing a beat.


On the way to the Titans game yesterday, we were discussing just how badly the Titans were going to get whupped. SuperFan Mrs. Sarcastro wasn't having any of our bad mouthing of her team.

Mrs. Sarcastro: You boys need to be more positive about your team.
Eight: Mom! We are POSITIVE that the Titans are gonna lose!

I'm so proud.
