http://jules-flyonthewall.blogspot.com/2008/11/why-not.html
Fly on the Wall. Sunday, November 16, 2008. Mummy, I just don’t get. 8220;I’ve explained this to you over and over and over! You’re just not ready! 8220;But I feel ready, Mummy, really I do! 8220;Well there’s more to it than that, it’s not only a question of being ready, you have to be prepared to take on responsibility.”. 8220;I do Mummy, I. I do all that stupid stuff you ask me to do. I even do all the stuff you don’t want to do yourself. It’s just not fair! 8220;Son, it’s not about being. 8220;No, no!

Fly on the Wall. Sunday, November 30, 2008. Come and see what I got at the Antique Mall! 8220;It sure is funny looking. What is it, Mom? 8220;I think it’s a phone, Johnny. They weren’t quite sure at the Mall. But I remember my great-great-grandmother talking about how they used to have these things called ‘phones’ when she was a kid, and I think this might be one of them.”. But what does it do? 8220;I’m trying to remember. I think you used it to call people”. Is that how it works, Mom? 8220;Oh, I know al...

Fly on the Wall. Thursday, January 22, 2009. Am I Safe Enough Yet? 8220;Bye Mom. I’m going tobogganing with Freddie and Billy.”. That’s way too dangerous! 8220;But Mom, you used to go all the time when you were a kid. You said so.”. 8220;Well, things were different then. The hills were lower. And back then it snowed all the time, so it wasn’t icy like it is nowadays. And the toboggans were way slower. I believe mine had sandpaper glued on the bottom.”. None of the other kids wear fur-lined helmets! Prote...

Fly on the Wall. Tuesday, February 10, 2009. 8220;License and registration, please.”. 8220;I have them right here in my purse, Officer. I wasn’t speeding was I, ‘cause I’m pretty sure I just was right on the limit. I’m always very careful about that.”. 8220;No, M’am, I didn’t pull you over for speeding. Insurance please.”. 8220;Oh. Good, well, I didn’t think I was speeding – is it a tail light or something? They recently came into effect here in Ontario.”. 8220;I’m fully authorized to confiscate al...

http://jules-flyonthewall.blogspot.com/2008/12/invention-of-snow.html
Fly on the Wall. Saturday, December 13, 2008. The Invention of Snow. 8220;It’s too much, it’s all just too much! 8220;What’s that? What’s too much? 8220;Green – all that green – everything that isn’t blue is green. I think we could do better, Gabe.”. I’m not sure that I follow, Boss…”. 8220;We need some kind of contrast – you know – add something else, something that will make the green special instead of just plain tedious.”. 8220;I know – we could add snow! We could make them yellow! 8220;It falls down...

Fly on the Wall. Friday, December 19, 2008. 8220;I don’t know Doctor, I used to be so, well, just so darned popular. Everyone loved me, especially people who were maybe a bit older. Seniors? 8220;Even men, you know? Even they thought I was something, something really special. They just couldn’t get enough of me in a Safari suit. And now, well, Doc, now I just feel lost. Well, maybe not so much lost, as ignored. Being ignored? It’s worse than being rejected, at least in some ways it is. You just gotta for...

You’d better tell me.”. 8220;There’s just no easy way to say this. It seems I’ve been voted out of The Club.”. You’ve been in The Club since 1930! Can they do that? 8220;They say I no longer meet the criteria.”. There are criteria for being in The Club? 8220;Don’t fit them! Just what sort of mass do you have to have? 8220;I̵...
