As Mistletoe walks across Scot’s laptop:
Scot: Oh look who’s back. Did you know that you are my favorite cat that lives here? (only cat that lives here)
Scot then starts petting him:
Scot: Ow you bastard! If there is a way where that does not sound mean, I meant the other one.

Katie: Did you know that if you cut the whiskers off of a cat that it will run around disoriented for a couple of weeks.
Sam: If you cut off the whiskers?
Katie: Yes, but don’t do that.
Sam: Don’t do that to Mistletoe? (our cat)
Me: Don’t do that to any cat. It is mean.
Katie: Yeah. It is mean but it is also supposed to be quite comical.
Katie: But don’t do that.
Sam: Don’t cut the whiskers off of a cat?
Katie: Yes Sam.

Katie was showing Sam a video of the story of the Princess and the Toad in Medieval England, this followed the story of Sleeping Beauty in ancient Greece: The princess kissed the frog and the frog turned into a prince (just like the story we all know). Then the princess was thought to be a witch and was burned at the stake.
Sam: I don’t like this story and I also don’t like the one about the girl who slept for 100 years and also was killed.

Katie: There’s this lightbulb at this fire station. You know. It is a fireman place.
Scot: Yes Katie, I know what a fire station is.
Me: Wow. Did you really think we did not know what a fire station was?
Katie: No, I just didn’t know if I was calling it the right thing.
Scot: You know, it is a place with big trucks and a lot of hoses.
Me: And a lot of HOT guys.
Katie: I was going somewhere with this…

Scot: What is that book about?
Katie: I’m very very not very far into it.
Me: You are very very not very far into it?
Katie: Don’t judge me, I haven’t finished my coffee yet.
Me: You do realize it is 1:00 in the afternoon. I can judge you at that time of day if I want.

Scot: You know what you said last week about Oklahoma being the only state that inspired a musical? What would it be like if they made a musical about Oregon?
Katie started singing: Well the Hippies and the Rednecks should be friends.
Scot: Atlas Shrugged the Musical. (then sang off key) Well, the Moochers and the Workers should be friends.

Soft modding the Wii to play all games off of an external drive cause one son’s Wii won’t read discs anymore. Using the other son’s Wii to transfer said games onto the hdd. Then also backing up on the network drive in case something or someone happens to the external drive. Just a couple of geeks/nerds (Scot and Joey) filling up drives with gigs…
Overheard at the Craighead House
