The Great Plotnik

Atta Girl!



Obviously, someone in the Plotnik Brooklyn family was perturbed at Mischief, as he managed once again to do something he knew he wasn't supposed to do, so they shouted at him. Mischief may or may not have noticed, but Isabella did.

So, The Great FiveHead and her daughter, Miss I'll-Repeat-Anything-I-Hear-You-Say-Mom-or-Dad were sitting around the kitchen table. Mischief is getting old and he has to take a pill every day, but doesn't like to take it, so 5H hides it in his food. On this day she stuck the pill into a piece of bacon.

But Mischief is not stupid.

OK, he is stupid. But he knows about food. So he ate the bacon and spit out the pill. Belly saw the pill on the floor, and Mischief licking his lips because of the bacon, and said to him:

"You sneaky little ___." (This morning there were a few guide letters to help you figure out the word Isabella used here, but they have been edited and removed. You don't even know how many letters there were. You don't have any idea at all.)(It may or may not rhyme with 'truck.')

Where did she learn this perfectly utilized expression? Hopefully from Grandpa. Atta girl!

Isn't is great how they pick up not only the language but also context. Two brothers, maybe 10 and 12 years old, arguing on the airplane yesterday: "No, I was not using it as a metaphor." No juicy F- word, but jeez, I didn't know what a metaphor was until I was 40.

You edited the guide letters? When Riley says "truck" all the TV censors reach for the bleep button. But I have not heard him say "truck" when he wasn't referring to a truck. Maybe when Idiot Dog Teddy needs to get a pill snuck into his bacon.
