@achewood Irish Nachos are a charming take on the original, but I wonder what Uighur Nachos would be like. A mutton leg on a crisped pita?

How often does a baby need to say "owl," anyway? Let alone "helicopter."

Do you think the baby learned "helicopter" from Airwolf?

I am hard-pressed to think of another way the baby possibly could have learned "helicopter." Now the only thing to be done is to teach the baby to use "Airwolf" as a general positive adjective.

It'll be the new "money." Preppy frat guys around the country will proclaim their new stereos to be "so Airwolf."

Come on, the baby has no word for mom?

Onstad is Mr. Mom, that's why he only gets 2-3 strips out a week.

yeah, as I left the house, I realized "oh goodness, it is because Mrs Chris-Onstad-of-Achewood works, while Mr Chris-Onstad-of-Achewood stays home with babe and pen."

So, in regards to "helicopter."

This basically confirms my suspicion that Onstad is insane, and in fact does walk around the house all day reciting Achewood strip dialogue.

While I'm sure in this case the baby only knows these words because of Onstad's aforementioned kookieness is anyone else struck by the useless words we teach babies these days. I'm referring to the whole farmyard animal thing, how much time do most people spend on the old farm anyway? Yet it seems as soon as a little podling comes into the world it must be forced to distinguish a hoss from a Cow from a Sheep.
It's not like we don't have perfectly easy to pronounce items just lying around anyway, what's wrong with 'Mod-em' or 'Glock'?

or "Airwolf".

I know.  I was trying to teach my friend's baby the name of my camera, but she was having none of it, and wanted to just smear the lens with her fingers.

Every family has a few silly in-jokes, too. Maybe helicopter is part of a family Meme.

my 15 month old started saying "Cat-poop" on Saturday. Just picked it up.

my story:

as a baby, my mom would not let me have sweets.
and we went to visit my grandma. Who lives in Chile.

and when my mom went out, she gave me a little bite of a cake she had made. and said "*in spanish* do you like that daniel? Cake! ca-ke. Cake."
and my mom returned, to find me excitedly pointing at the cake, and saying the spanish word for Cake over and over.

she figured it out pretty fast.

Another gem, of the "oh that is so typical variety":

we used to have a skylight, and one day it broke. My mom heard it cracking, and picked me up, screaming "Bob! Bob (my dad)! The fuck*ng window is breaking!"
the next day, I looked at her and said "mommy... what kind of window is a "fuck*ng window"?"

which is amazing, because until age 12 or so, I thought my mom didn't cuss. so I don't know why I don't remember that.
