Evan for President

Mom: You're pretty quiet today. What's up?
Evan: Nothing, just thinking.
Mom: It always scares me when you think quietly. I'm worried that you're plotting how to take over the world or something.
Evan: Nah, that's easy. First, you have to force Britain into submission. Then, align yourself with Russia until you gain full control. Once you command their troops, you lead them into the middle East to shore up the fighting and overthrow the government there. And while doing that, annihilate China. That should keep the rest of Asia under control. No one else has enough power to do anything.
(Pause)
I was thinking of something much harder.

WOW! What is harder than taking over the world?

cari said...

Now I am curious as to what he really was thinking about!

Cloves said...

That's all huh? Is there a time frame for that?

And, if we annihilate China where am I going to get all my "stuff" Huh?

Dave said...

Can he figure out how to make Chinese soldiers into service-bots to do our errands for us?...just maybe some evening when he has nothing to do?

Best post ever! Hey, I just finished those pages. It took a long time to print. .like hours. .. and, I got my niece for the day.(her parents are out of town and she was sad for them. .apparently I make a good runner-up.) :) Anyway, I will trim these pages and call you tomorrow morning. It's 8:15 and my kids are asleep and I am so ready for a little R&R. OH! Are you setting up tomorow morning? that would be a good time for me to put these in the books.. .you could just bring them there? Let me know!

Melissa, I have been in my own little world while you have been sooo busy. And you've been doing stuff for me too! Thomas had a runny nose yesterday so we didn't come over. I hope you didn't clean because of me. You know how I keep things so picked up and clean. Anyway, I wish I was a fairy friend and did nice things like your other friend. But I'm not. But I will vote for Evan!

I was actually too stunned to ask what the hard problem was!

Probably how to bounce a ball in a box and while calculating air resistance, velocity, and rebound, predict where and how soon the ball will hit next. That's a toughie, let me tell you what!

Kell-
Don't be silly. Somehow you always get stuck listening to me RANT, which is much worse than scrubbing my toilets!

I can see that this guy would be a formidable foe in a game of RISK!
