Pictures in the Paper
Our kids are making a habit of getting their pictures in the paper. I guess at this stage it isn't the large daily papers, just the local papers. This still gave us a thrill the first time it happened with Aidan, however, it happened again with Ethan this week and Anthea has been quite blase about letting me know about it. She only remembered to tell me this evening.
I can't give you a link to the paper, as I can't find it online. Often, you have to pay for newspaper pictures anyway, with the weird dichotomy which seems that the textual elements of a story can usually be put up on a newspaper site for free, but the pictures are all copyright and you need to pay for them.
This weeks picture was a promotion for the local markets at the local primary school. Ethan looks quite photogenic holding up a sign with "Markets" printed on it. This also raises that the kids will now want to go to the actual market day. This of itself is fine. The markets are always good for some kind of cheap and nasty bargain. They do, however, have kiddy rides.
Kiddy rides are the bastion of the school market day, and of sideshow carnivals. Kiddy rides are run by Carnies. Anyone who's been to a carnival, or seen the Simpson's episode Bart Carny will know of characters like Cooder and Spud, grifters who just wanna take you for a buck. I can never beat there crooked games, and the rides always look like they're a few minutes away from breakage. God Bless Them!
Ciao for Now, Carny Angry Dad.
