That kid will go far in life…

Posted by: Kelley on Thursday, September 18th, 2008

Today Boo got his grade for a report he did at school.

The teacher was most impressed, read fucking flabbergasted, at his in depth knowledge on the topic.

They had to pick a country, write about it and do a presentation for the class.

And, as you all know, Boo is an Israeli Frenchman with an American accent.  So Boo picked Israel.

Boo received an A for his report.  Which I had to admit to the poor teacher was a word for word recap of this:

From his favourite website of the minute Taglit Birthright Israel.

And if she let him go further in depth, instead of being stunned at his knowledge that the chief agricultural export of Israel is maize and that he can actually speak in Hebrew, he would have told her that the Nazi’s had their faces melted off by Indiana Jones finding Noah’s Ark thus ending WW2.

And the kid was pissed.

He wanted a B+

Oh, and I discovered where the weird words he has been saying came from.  MPS found the website open on his computer, a website on how to swear in different languages.

Yep.  That kid will go far…

Might he be in need of an 11 year old friend? I can ship my kid off as soon as you give the go!

Sweet, I’ve always needed to swear in Maltese. I’ll teach those little bastard dogs. The letter ‘B’ does have a much nicer shape, I’ll give Boo that.

Resourceful kid! I love the internet. That’s where I learned to do the sex.

When my kids and I lived in the eastern suburbs here in Adelaide they learnt to swear in Italian. Then we moved to the western suburbs and they learnt to swear in Greek. My grandchildren swear in Indonesian, German and Spanish. Me? I don’t swear at all.
Boo is such a resourceful one. I can’t find stuff like that on the internet.

Israel is otherwise known as Narnia? That video is hysterical!

Tell him next time he picks Israel I’ll give him the inside scoop :).

I love everything about that video. But my favorite is that it’s the 50th state of the United States! Teh awesome!

And I once read a book called “Pick Up Lines In Every Language”. I really, REALLY hope no one thinks that’s a serious book. Although, I would totally love to tag along with someone who only knows how to say “I thought you said you were a woman.” in Polish.

Educational as well as funny. Like it. I’m learning and laughing in bite-sized chunks - your blog is like the web equivalent of sesame street.

(That’s a compliment).

My favorite part of the internet is being able to look up swear words in other languages.
