Interview with an 8-year old: Part two

Since my last interview with AJ went so well, I decided that maybe this should be a running feature. I’ve kept my eye out for something that might pertain to him, as he does better with structured questions and I was looking forward to hearing his answers in response to some hilarious questions. I was reading one of the blogs that I frequent, Funny jokes, pictures, stories, etc., and this old forward came up. When I read it, I realized that I could get some answers from AJ that might be worth a giggle. Read what they had to say, and then come back and read AJ’s response. Anything in parentheses is my response to his answer.

1. People in glass houses should not…….throw balls. (Can you tell we have a rule here?)
2. Better to be safe than……..unsafe. (Um…..)
3. Strike while the……batter’s not looking. (He does love baseball.)
4. It’s always darkest before……midnight.
5. Never underestimate the power of ……coca-cola. (Someone has been watching too much television.)
6. You can lead a horse to water but…….. not to food. (huh?)
7. Don’t bite the hand that ……. what hand?
8. No news is …….. un-news! (We don’t quite have opposites down, do we?)
9. A miss is as good as a …… clean room. (Miss, mess, whatever.)
10. You can’t teach an old dog….. to run. (Well…)
11. If you lie down with dogs, you…… hurt them. (Again, we have rules.)
12. Love all, trust…..your mom. (A-men. Preach it.)
13. Where there is smoke, there is…….fire. (Heh.)
14. Happy is the bride who….got married. (He’s creative, this one.)
15. A penny saved, is…..put in a piggy bank. (Fair enough.)
16. Two is company, three is …….what? I don’t get it at all. (This was met with 3 minutes of consternation.)
17. Children should be seen and not…… distracted. (??????)
18. If at first you don’t succeed……you fail. (…. ….. …. I guess he’s a realist…)
