Check your Bible

This all started a couple of weeks ago when our neighbour Nate asked Joel if he knew what a wedgie was and when Joel said, "No", Nate proceeded to demonstrate. We all got a laugh over that one, especially Nate, who's joy is in corrupting young children, since he doesn't have any of his own. Well, to be fair, Nate and his wife Maddie and the kids all have a neat relationship, since they go over every weekend and play the Wii together.

This weekend, Nate asked Joel if he wanted another wedgie. Joel said, "No, but maybe it'll be fun to give one to Kezia". Nate said he wouldn't, so Joel gave one to Kezia anyways. Kezia squealed and ran away. Then Nate and our other neighbour Ben told Joel that since he had given his sister a wedgie, he would have to have a swirlie. Joel looked puzzled, and wondered what a swirlie was. So Nate explained and then told him some more non-truths to corrupt Joel even further. Then Nate and Ben grabbed him, took him to Ben's place, and almost gave him a swirlie. But Joel managed to escape.

When I got back from my weekend trip (I know you are all wondering where I went, but not yet folks...) I overheard Joel say to Kezia,

"You know that in the Bible it says that if you give your sister a wedgie, you have to get a swirlie, it's in the Bible because that's what Nate and Ben say".

What?! What version is that?

My brother just conviced my kids that earthworms are amazing on pizza. They were digging in the garden to help make this delicious dish...
about Joel's swirlie...wow! how cute those statements are! poor Kezia...i hope she figures this out before she learns the hard way! what else does this Bible says is what she's probably thinking!
