MING THE MERCILESS AT 7TH AND MONTANA ...!

                             

Ear-piercing screams filled the air this morning at 7th and Montana as a newborn infant cried out, repeatedly, in what sounded like shock or terror.  "What's he doing to that baby?," I wondered as the father tried, unsuccessfully, to calm the infant down.  Indeed, the more he tried, the more she screamed.  Then, again, you'd probably scream, too, if your father resembled a stunt-double for Ming the Merciless, complete with a sinister beard twisted into dreadlocks and a pair of dark sunglasses worthy of the "Men in Black."

  1. Poor baby probably thirsty for a starbucks coffee!! Do you write from Starbucks or home? You write a lot like Jimmy (Stupidsheetguy). He is having trouble with aol again!(as are many of us!) I hate when they tell me they can't "find" the page and to check my ulr and try again later!!  I am computer stupid and don't know half of what aol talks about!!Barb

  3. I could not help but laugh at your description, and the picture said it all - but poor baby!  Maybe he is hiding the dark circles from lost sleep.

  4. Hmmm, maybe that wasn't his baby!!  Or maybe the baby hadn't been changed in a few hours and had poop in his/her diaper.  I'd scream too!  Future Starbuck-y baby already, and she doesn't even know it yet!!
