bookaddict43I was watching the news this morning and saw all the fires in Southern California. Hope my flisters are ok???
I wasn't watching the news (sometimes I go weeks without watching much more than the 10.30pm sound bites) - the little guy was! At the age of 10 he's turned into a news junky. He actually watches back to back news broadcasts, which drives me insane :) Because of his news watching habits we are having some very in depth discussions about wars, elections and the economy. During the recent US elections he wanted to know if he could go and vote! Thank goodness his news watching is balanced by The Simpsons (yuck), every gardening/homemaker show known to man, animal documentaries and fishing shows! :D
