Mo Hawg - Week 17


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: Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-base paint!  We survived!

  Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: When your Dad is mad and asks you, “Do I look stupid?”  Don’t answer.

   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: When asked “Why did God make mothers?” answers received from the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “She’s the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.”  “Mostly to clean the house.” 

Day 2.

     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!)       Cardiovascular exercise can prolong life.  Your heart is only good for so many bests, and that’s it…don’t waste those beats on exercise.  Everything wears out eventually.  Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer, that’s like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster.  Want to live longer?  Take a nap.

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today:  Never tell your Mom that her diet is not working.

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 would leave home in the morning and play all day. So long as we were home when the street lights came on it was OK.  No one was able to reach us all day.  No cell phones.  No pagers.  Unthinkable!  We survived.

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: Stay away from prunes.
  
   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: To the question, “How did God make mothers?” the youngsters in the Sunday School kindergarten class replied: “He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.”  “Magic, plus super powers and a lot of stirring.”  (Mo’s favorite…)  “God made my mom just the same like he made me, he just used bigger parts!”

Day 4.

   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: “The Web site you seek, Cannot be located, but Countless more exist.”

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today: When your Mom is mad at your Dad, don’t let her brush your hair.

      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 God give you your mother and not some other mom?” answers from the little ones in the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “We’re related.”  “He knew she likes me a lot more than other people’s moms like me.”

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: Our actions were our own.  Consequences were expected.  We survived.

   Mo’s Good Advice From Kids for Today:  Never let your three-year-old brother in the same room as your already-done school homework.

   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 ingredients are mothers made of?” answers from the little ones in the Sunday School Kindergarten class included: “God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one little bitty dab of mean.”  “They had to get their start from men’s bones.  Then they mostly used string, I think.”
