Once each week I have a little get-together with the fellas. We call it "Buddy Days". This week my three amigos came over for some fun & as an added bonus, we discovered a very important lesson...
If three boys are doing something, it doesn't take much to convince the fourth boy to join in.
Today, it just happened to be three of us wearing Lightening McQueen undies, so we pressured boy #4, still clad in diapers, to join us in the next step towards manhood.
We then decided to test the waters & take it to the next level. Three of us were hiding under the table sticking stickers to its underside, again, boy #4 felt compelled to join in.
So I have to wonder, how far will this go in the future?
By age 6, we'll all be peeing (or worse) in the woods behind the house.
By age 10, we'll see who can come up with the most disgusting, vulgar or inappropriate thing to say.
By age 17, we'll want to challenge each other to some spontaneous drag-races down Grand River.
By age 21, we'll have chugging contests and keg stands to prove just how much Natty Light we can handle.
By age 33, when we are married, have children of our own and know better, we'll be at a respectable Christmas party, have a few too many cocktails and challenge each other to a "squat competition" on our make-shift squat rack in the garage.
All it will take is three boys doing it & it suddenly sounds like a really good idea to the fourth.
Like my Nanny always says, "One Boy = One Brain, Two Boys = 1/2 Brain, Three Boys = Barely a Brain, Four Boys = No Brain At All."
As far as I am concerned, brains just get in the way of fun, so bring on the challengs & the four of us will be running the country in a few decades.
