[...] is on the way there so when Nefarious saw that she insisted we all stop and walk through it (just like last time) which was a really nice diversion. She has a real fascination with cemetaries and the zillion [...]

I once saw this 20/20 or 60 minutes piece on a child prodigy painter.
The interesting thing was that this child was earning hundreds of thousands of dollars for her paintings.

The Reporter installed hidden cameras and found that the ambitious father was composing a finishing the artwork his child was doing

Turned out the whole thing was a fraud.

I showed my 4 year-old daughter(she’s almost 5 actually) your daughter’s painting and she said it was “great and beautiful”.

My daughter tells me stories about the “smiley faces”…she has made up about 10 regular characters and today she was telling me about picking blueberries with with smiley faces, and that was the apparent reason for her face being covered in blue marker.

I can’t wait for my daughter to be old enough to enjoy painting and stuff. Her idea of fun at the moment is throwing things on the floor, picking them back up, taking them across the room, and throwing them on the floor again.
Sooooon, she will have fun doing more things that I can enjoy with her. She’s showing more interest in books and things, I can’t wait to be able to enjoy painting and other similar things with her!

I love cemeteries, too. Always have, for as long as I can remember… When I was little my mom and I used to stop along the road at old cemeteries and walk around looking at stones and cleaning up a bit. Now I’m obsessed w/ genealogy so I have a reason to play in cemeteries hehe.

Hi – I have just started reading your blog since the BME nasties began. I myself am “homesteading” in a small cabin in the woods just outside of Churchill, Manitoba.
The reason I decided to comment today was that I work at a site that used to launch research rockets and was at one point in the late eighties and early nineties going to be “Canada’s First Canadian Spaceport”. The plan was to launch media satellites and turn Churchill into the Aerospace hub of Canada. The entire venture flopped harder than the mono-rail in that Simpson’s Episode. The rocket launching facilities are still standing here in Churchill but are fairly derelict (4 launchers and a series of outbuildings) and is now the site of the Churchill Northern Studies Centre; a scientific research facility. I will be interested to see if Cape Breton pulls it off – because even with the facilities already existing, Akjuit Aerospace never made it work out here.

I am fortunate to spend most of my mornings with a 4 1/2 year old. He regales me with long rambling stories about Dracula, swamp rats, lava monsters etc. A great time, precious stuff.

Haha, that painting is awesome! Very Dali-esque. A real live bat cat would certainly freak the hell out of me.
