It's been a while.

This is Anders mom.

I just found the login information to this blog that I lost over a year ago. So now Anders can start blogging again.

To kick it back off I thought I'd post some of the stuff that has come out of Anders mouth the past while ... some I may have written down before, some are brand new.

On chess:
Do you know what knights are called when they are midgets? Pawns.

On the class system:
Anders says moron.
Me: Do you even know what moron means?
Anders: Ya, it means you're not cool. Like you're lame.
(OK, didn't know he knew either of those words.)

and

I thought _____ was a total dork because he has a cranky voice and he smells. But he's totally not, he got a medal and a trophy.

On monsters:
Maddie why do you always fall for stuff? Monsters don't even exist. They just tell you that so you'll go to sleep.

On El Nino:
(While watching a documentary about El Nino causing the South American fishermen to not catch any fish.)
What's the big deal, why don't they just go to the store and buy some?
Like, they thought this was such a big deal they made a movie about it, and I came up with that whole store thing in like two seconds. (Don't worry we did have a little chat about where that fish in the store comes from ... those fishermen.)

On acronyms:
Mom what does A.S.P.A. spell?
Do you mean A.S.A.P?
Ya.
It's a shorter version of as soon as possible. Its an acronym, it's like a code so you don't have so say the whole thing.
Ah, like PB & J?

On the food chain: (Overheard while he was playing Legos with a friend.)
Did you know that bug food is called prey?
I didn't know that.
I didn't know that either but it says that in my bug book.

On pop culture:
Have you ever heard of the movie diarrhea is a wimpy kid?

On perspective:
We're at the pond and see a small pumpkin sitting on a lily-pad.
Maybe that lily-pad dressed up like a pumpkin for Halloween and forgot to take its costume off.

On body odor:
Something smells like beef jerky. If that's me then I want to eat myself.

On geography:
(To a random kid on the playground in another town.)
What kind of school are you going to be in?
No response.
USA?
The USA one?

On brainstorming how to buy a motor home:
I know we can use those hundreds of thousands of coins in your room.

On personal hygiene:
His response to me bugging him about wiping better.
Mom, the truth is I don't really care to wipe. I don't like it when the toilet paper breaks and I get poop on my fingers.

On slang:
He hears a teenager on TV say "Let's party" like "Let's Pah-ty!"
All confused he says: That's weird, I think he's talking about the potty that comes out of your penis.

On role-models:
Dad and Grandpa are like the bird crew. Maybe I'll be able to join them someday.

this is me today. today i went snowboarding.
i went really fast and it was so cool. brady helped me a little bit and when i was practicing he did... but when i was playing he didn't even help me and snowboarding is really cool.
it felt really good cause i learned how to go fast and to stop. to go to the top of the hill i went in a chair to lift us up there. when we were getting ready to go down we said, "im going to shred the nar." i was going kind of speedy. from when i'm a teenager i want to go to the olympics and i want to be the guy who holds the flag and snowboards. when i'm older my mom can watch the olympics and see if i'm on there.

this is what maddie and eddie did while i was snowboarding.

this is a picture i drew of us on the chair lift

this is me and brady going snowboarding and that is the sweat coming off our heads and that is the grass with the snow on top of it.

my first fieldtrip

today i went on a field trip. i got cotton candy but i didn't like it. it tastes like syrup but it was white. i saw cows with horns they were called ox. they had things on the end of their hornes so they couldn't stab anything or somethin. i saw a guy that made puppets. the puppets sang and dances. he had lots of puppets. he had a bunny that kissded the magician. and i wish that we had puppets. one of the puppets was a leprichian and he danceded.

this is me

hello, my name is anders. i like legos. i play video games with my dad and get lego bionicals with my dad. and don't forget awesome strike, he's an ice one. i like apples. and i like oranges, oops not oranges. i like field trips and conner is my favorite guy in school. and i like benjamin too. at school i have lunch time and snack time and that's all. oh we have the turtle guy in my classroom he teaches us to be quiet.

grandma i love you and i miss you and we'll go to the fair when you come here and when alicia comes we'll have more more fun. i love grandpa because he shows all kinds of bird books to me and lets me have the bird book, and lets me read the bird books. but i dont know what the birds are called but when i get bigger i will know. grampy i hope you have a good time riding your motorcycle but hold on tight so you won't get bonked on the head and left behind the street. i want to do one for grammy too. grammy i love you because you give me toys and you let me borrow them. did you put love in all of them?

i do lego bionical battles with my dad or my mom or maddie or eddie or clark or my grandma or my grandpa or my grammy or my grampy. and tomorrow i would like some peace and quiet.
