#207 – Chocolate, Choking and King Kamehameha
Well, well, well. It seems that, not only do we have to warn our kids about the dangers of drugs, unsafe sex, pedophiles, and crossing the street without looking, we also have to tell them not to choke themselves to death with a rope in the kitchen. Sounds like a game of Clue gone wrong (I liked it better when Colonel Mustard did it with a pipe in the study), but it’s called “The Choking Game.” The rules are simple: Choke yourself (or have a friend choke you) until you almost pass out. Last one to accidentally choke themselves to death in the winner! What fun! If only Parker Bros. had thought of this years ago!
Of course, my heart goes out to the friends and family of Erik Robinson who accidentally asphyxiated himself and died on April 20th. He is apparently the latest addition to a growing number of children who die from “The Choking Game” each year. Please, in all seriousness, talk to you kids about it.
HEY PARENTS: A great new product to look for Enfamil PREMIUM Chocolate! YUM! It’s like YooHoo for the nipple set! It’s a chocolate milk-like beverage for TODDLERS. Yes, why wait to get your kids overeating sweets when you can pump them full of chocolate and sugar before they’re even on their own two feet! They’ll go from learning to walk to bouncing off the walls in no time! THANKS, MEAD-JOHNSON!

And, this episode includes our continuing adventures in Hawai’i, including our apparently burning our daughter’s face off, my being defeated by a mere digital still camera and our trip to the black sandy beaches of the northern big island, only to learn that a rock is not always a rock…
PREMIUM VERSION: An hour, twelve.
FREE VERSION: to come.
