Apropos of nothing

When we found out we were expecting our fourth child, our older boy (around 6 at the time) announced that he thought a good name would be Molucca Moo.

He was dead serious, too.

The boy still cracks us up.

He's been reading too much Anthony Burgess, I think (there's references to MOLOKO (for milk, which is the same as in Russian) in A Clockwork Orange).

Putting "Moo" at the end of a word that sounds like the Russian word for milk makes a lot of sense.

Or, he's a fan of extinct Brit Trip Hop bands.

Your son has pretty 'elitist' taste for a kid growing up in Missouri.

Let's hope he doesn't develop a taste for the old ultraviolence.

But I think he's more in danger of developing a taste for Star Trek, Monty Python, and The Princess Bride.
