My version of Kitten Down a Well Alert

[pegkerr]

kijjohnson is instigating a Kitten Down a Well alert:

Right now I am despairing. I think we can't even imagine what the bottom will be like. And I can't read LJ without seeing my own rage, grief, desperation, and fear mirrored and magnified. Bleah.

So, tell me about monkeys riding motorcycles, kittens with four ears, people who give their lottery winnings to the Nature Conservancy, dresses made of turf, your vacations to the beach, and the Collider. Better yet, post them where everyone will see them, as leavening for a heavy time.

I kinda see her point. So I gave her a black belt chimpanzee.

And you? What can you offer in response to a Kitten Down a Well alert during stressful times?

I'm going to post this on my own LJ in a little bit, but for Kij's benefit, here it is also: a six-year-old's version of the Pledge of Allegiance, as recited to us about fifteen minutes ago:

I pledge of allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic, for riches and stands, one nation with liberty and justices for all.

Speaking of states - here's an addictive how many can you name? game.

Also, to be appreciated by anyone who has undergone a colonoscopy or similar exam: Dave Barry's take on it; link provided by dragonfly_lily.

I loved the state game. I played it and then I sent the link to the social studies teacher at my school. After that, I then looked at several animaniacs sogs: one about states and captitols, one about sountries, and one about presidents. It was great!

Oooh, where did you find the Animaniac stuff? I had the President's song half-memorized for awhile; I knew there were songs about the other subjects, too, but don't remember them at all. It's like School House Rock on caffeine - such fun. :D

I looked on YouTube. They had tons of Animaniacs songs on there. I also found clips of them performing scenes from Hamlet and a Midsummer's Night Dream!
