roy:i'm so sorry! is that why you gave up ballet?
mainja: LOVE IT! but... do you think it would be overkill if i wore the rabbit head while driving those?
shari: 7th grade? pfft. i was sooo one year ahead of you on learning the dirty stuff.
fiorello: which line? oh... the one that goes, "first grade tot, stick your head in..." that one?
pants: yeah, the nice thing about that chant is that as we grow older, it's more and more likely that our friends' grannies really are bald-headed.
tracy lynn: free of charge!

I have no idea how I made it thirty-one years without knowing about “Yo momma, yo daddy, yo bald-headed granny!” But now that I know about it, it’s sure going to make life easier.

Whew…thanks Jenny. I was worried that you would gag me with the disgusting second verse of that little ditty. O, nutz…now I can’t get it out of my little bald-head….

So, there really were rabbit-head pictures? I thought they were projections from my tortured psyche. I feel relieved, then, in one sense. In another, Jenny, I do not, because that means the pictures were all too real.
And I know the other kids told you to call my granny baldheaded, and I don’t blame you, but I should probably tell you, one day, about the tragic incident involving grandma and the Marine boot-camp barber that afternoon when I was taking my ballet lesson, but for now, thanks for stirring up the horrible memories.

sarah: you used safety pins? we just did the "fold and roll" technique. it was a real nice look.
RW: exactly! that's why it's such a powerful taunt!
karen: [looks down at ground] maybe. maybe i was there one time.
sir: look, sometimes i have to cut hard and cut deep and if it means talking smack about your chrome-domed granny, i'll do it. don't take it personally.
heather anne: that's a good one! also, "[boss] and [co-worker] sittin' in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g!" peefer: are you sure about that? i think rabbit head is creeping people out. well... since you asked so sweetly, i'll work on something over the weekend.

Jenny, not that I don’t enjoy your writing (quite the contrary), but I would really appreciate it—and I think I speak for us all—if you would post some more of them rabbit head pictures thank you very much.

How about: I see London. I see France. I see my boss’s underpants.
Um. Wait. Never mind.
