I’m not the greatest fan of reality TV shows and a lot has been said about the subject.  I will leave that discussion to others as it has no place here, at least for now.  What I do want to say is that after a rough day these guys made me laugh. 

No they are not mega-talented superstars and their act is not awe inspiring but I at least think they are hilarious.  And I mean this in a nicest possible way.  They have a charm about them that makes them inevitably adorable.   

Why, you may ask, am I writing about them in a parenting blog?   

Well firstly, I may be getting soppy after living in a world full of women (my wife and two daughters), but I got that warm fuzzy feeling inside when they were voted into the final and could hardly contain their excitement. 

Second, because they were entertaining and most of all fun.  And this is what I am trying to do with this website: make it a fun place for parents.    We have to live through enough grief and there are plenty of sites where you can find serious discussions about parenting and kids.  This is not primarily one of those. 

What I am trying to create is a place where parents can hopefully find something amusing they can relate to. 

So search for Stavros Flatley on your Google or You Tube or whatever and have a laugh.

It shall come to pass where the unnaturally over excitable and über politically correct cuddly purple, previously assumed prehistoric, creature of sinful pride, manifested in eye dazzling immaculately and orthodonticaly aligned teeth, will be destroyed by the wrath of man.    

Patience has worn thin, for the incessant dance and chant of the creature is unnatural in the eyes of the maker. 

And there shall be great upheaval among fathers of all nations and they shall pursue said creature with fire and pitchfork unto its doom.

It is due.

And there will be much rejoicing and men across the lands shall be merry.
