My BlackBerry email is up and running again. Just in time for you jokers to try and fill it up, no doubt.
Oh, and for those of you who were wondering what the shallow end of American culture looks like, here's your answer:
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WTVC-TV) - A 4-year-old boy, beer in hand, is accused of stealing Christmas presents from his neighbors. It's a strange story, but also a sad one.
April Wright is 21 years old and is going through a divorce with her husband who is in jail. She says she is not sure how her 4-year-old managed to get out of the house, open a beer, and steal the neighbors presents from under their tree. Now she's just glad he's okay and says she won't let it happen again.
Riiiiight.
(With thanks to my good friends at Fairfax Underground for that educational moment.)

Pretty pathetic story.
But I have to admit, the first time I saw my son walk any distance, he was doing it with a beer bottle in his hands. I left a couple of bottles on the counter thinking they were out of reach, and he managed to grab one and bring it down. Then I guess he realized he couldn't crawl and carry it at the same time, so he walked out of the kitchen carrying it looking very proud of himself.
It was pretty cute in a super-trashy kind of way.
