The Plotniks Make the Fridge



Every parent will find this truly amazing. The Plotniks have had their childrens' art work on their various refrigerators for many years. Now, the impossible has happened:



Look at that signature on the top pen and ink drawing: Sr K. As all Plotnikkies know, 'Sr. K.' stands for 'Mr. Plotnik' in Spanish, since we always use the last letter of our name. Now, look down to the signature on the bottom drawing: Ms. K. This stands for Mrs. Plotnik.

Yes, after many years, the Plotniks have finally made it up onto their own refrigerator. That's a lion you're looking at, in case you were wondering, and he's climbing on some bamboo. At least, that's what Plot and Duck were attempting to paint a few weeks ago when Plot accompanied Duck's 7th graders on a trip to the Asian Art Museum.

It feels good to be up there where everyone passing through the house can see one's own artwork. Of course, there isn't anybody passing through the house these days, but if there were, then they'd see, if they looked, which they damned well better.

As regards that other thing, there is no point in talking about the good things that happened last night, because the thing is hard to talk about, being that thing and all. That one guy, though, he is truly amazing, at putting that thing in the thing, you know.

Yes, coming home from the theatre I had to check the Laker score, of all
impossible thoughts. And EVERYONE was a Laker fan at Lefty's last night! I
do love that nice reefer art...

Those are great drawings! I figured they were done by some talented street artist who probably snuck in some Asian profanity or insult in it. But it turns out you did them, and probably snuck in your own profanity or insult.

Tomorrow night's thing will be interesting. Unless those other guys get better at putting the thing in the thing. That one guy though was indeed amazing. Which is why I don't think it will matter how many times the other guys put the thing in the thing.
