Duh.

Yesterday B. was watching Taylor make a stick figure cartoon on the computer; the program is a cross between an old fashioned “flip book” and the paint program on windows. The stick guys fight, carrying huge weapons (scimitars, scythes, etc) and both boys find it immensely amusing. It’s sort of like the “Three Stooges” of stick fighting action.
At one point I heard B. say “Taylor, you should put in some blood splatters.” Taylor, in his scornful, teenager-y, eye-rolling way said “B. these are stick guys, they don’t bleed.”

    It sounds similar (or maybe the same) to this site I saw last week (below). Very fun!! And honestly, stick figures are about the extent of my drawing ability. http://www.deviantart.com/view/34244097/

    I would think that stick figures might bleed tree sap, eh?

    I am about to beta test a free web paint tool, will let you know how it turns out. Might be something for your kids to play with. I got Paint Shop Pro 7 for only $15 at BestBuy when I bought new eMachines computer for home. Love it.

    Sounds like a perfectly logical conclusion to me! Ever notice how as adults we overanalyze the most simple circumstances.. it takes a young mind to put things in perspective.
