A BIT OF THE BUNKER

• Florence Nightengown.


• Mrs. O'Leary's cow is sorry, but Cleveland burned anyway!


• Engelbert Whats-his-dink


• Well, yous 2 may have come from monkeys and bamboons, but not me.


• I ain't in a happy frame of mood.


• A woman doctor is only good for women's problems...like your groinocology.

When Archie Bunker stumbled over his words, he made me laugh. All the above quotes are, as you probably now know, from his lips. He tripped over famous names, historical events, and more. I just never expected my own daughter to have a bit of the Bunker in her. From the mouth of Olivia, age 7:

• "My badge." (translated: my bad)


• "Can we go see Pirates of the Cari-ba-doo?"


• "Shoot-of-a-gun-it." (that's shoot, son of a gun and darn it, all rolled into one.)


• "goose tape" is duct tape and "quesadilla" is a Kia Sedona.


• "Mom, I've been good for 4 rows in a day now."


• "Is that a FECK-UH-LEE doll?" (that would be American Girl doll Felicity).

But hey, it's "all in the family", as my Dad once asked how to get to the OWIE NOODLE on Maui (um, that would be The Iao Needle).
