although not always in the direction that I would like it to!
You may recall that we are studying the First World War. Well, last night Salamander came to visit me whilst I enjoyed the peace and quiet of my room. Sometimes, on a very rare occasion, this will happen. I am usually required to be ill before this happens, but we'll let that pass.
Anyway, as Salamander and I were talking, we heard a blood curdling scream. Tiger pounced on his brother in continuation of his never ending quest to "take him down." (Close your eyes and visualize with me...Salamander is fourteen, Tiger is nine. Get the picture?) Salamander flipped him over in 0.1 second and, oh, the horror, kissed him. Well, I won't let him hit Tiger. You must admit, for a nine year old boy it is a hateful punishment.
Tiger was spittin' mad. The more Salamander laughed, the madder he got. He bunched up his fists and thought of the worst insult he could muster,
"You Nasty Hun!"
Who says he doesn't pay attention during History?
