So, Erica, I've been spending a lot of time with my nephews over the last few weeks.

Okay. I've never spent time with children. That's always a mistake.

It's a different life. It's a different life. I know that they shouldn't be staring at their phones all the time, but I can't help but notice that if you tell them to put down their phones their immediate instinct is to do

literally the most dangerous and or stupid thing they can possibly do that you will let them get away

with like i had my two younger nephews they're both 11 and i'm like go in the pool so they're in

the pool so they took one of those long pool noodles, you don't think you float on.

And they, and it's hollow, right? So it's like a tube. It's like a Bucatini. Yeah, exactly. It's like, it's a pool Bucatini. And they. You have to meet me on my level, Paul. Talk to me in language, I understand. You're already in Kidville. Let's call Bucatini what it is.

It's Bucatini.

And they put... To talk to me in language, I understand. You're already in Kidville. Let's call Bucatini what it is.

It's Bucatini.

And they put one end of the Bucatini up against the pool return, like the jet.

And they take the other end out of the water, but they yell, to the face first.

And then both try to put their mouth over the return and return and get like blown backwards by the forest with this water look if you want to do that you're not going to

hurt yourself i don't care but they look at me like they want me to stop them and i'm like you can do

this as much as you want but maybe just we should just let them look at their phones more i don't know

it's just a theory oh well let's get real I'm all for absentee parenting. I think kids were better when they were latchkey.

I like my kids like I like my home. Lachkeed. I like my kids like I like my cholesterol levels. Neglected.

I like my kids like I like my Bucatini.

Al Dente.

Wait, no, that doesn't work.

I'm not good at this.

Hey, I'm Paul.
