I still have to shine dad's shoes to earn my allowance, and I usually blow it on comic books and bubble gum. My favorite comic right now is The Spectacular Mac Night -- I can't believe the stuff he gets up to every month!

Today we were sitting around the fort and Marky said we should do a raid on the fort that the kids from the other side of town made. It sounded like a good idea until Chip pointed out that Big Jimmy is in their gang. That took the wind out of our sails pretty quick! That guy is HUGE, and I bet he has to shave like twice a day. So we built water balloon cannons in case they decide to raid us.
