The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones. -- Shakespeare, Julius Caesar III.ii

Dylan’s Sunday Round-Up, August 9, 2015

Scene: MOMMY is trying to jump-start her car. DYLAN has woken DADDY early for some company.

DYLAN: Why mommy’s car not working?

DADDY: Someone left the light on in her car all night so the battery died

DYLAN: You mean the dome light? (nb: DYLAN has previously gotten in trouble for leaving the dome light in DADDY’s car on)

DADDY: Yes.

DYLAN: Well I didn’t do it. Did you do it?

DADDY: No.

DYLAN: Then I think Mommy did it. Because she’s the only one left in our family.


Scene: DYLAN and MOMMY have just returned from church

DADDY: How was church?

DYLAN: Good.

DADDY: What did the priest talk about?

A pause. DYLAN struggles to remember.

DYLAN: (dismissively) Nothing you’d be interested in.

(later)

MOMMY: Oh. Dylan briefly lost his pants in church.
