More Drazi, more fun.

As I have mentioned in one of my older posts, my older son and I have stumbled onto the age old Drazi argument.  What's amusing (to me if no one else) is that randomly, sometimes with weeks, or months in between, he and I will break into this same "argument".  In every instance, he sticks by Green, and I stick by Purple.   It's a bit unlike the real Drazi in that way, I suppose, because it's not randomly sides, but always me versus my son, and I always pick purple and he always green.

What's new to this mix, you might wonder?

Ah, well, that would be son #2.  He of eighteen months age, has started expanding his vocabulary.   What word has he recently added to his small and growing repetoire?  Why PURPLE, that's what.   Oh, my older son, he cleverly tries to get him to say green.  But my younger boy, he knows which side of this argument he is on, because he refuses to speak that foul word.  Indeed, I've even managed to get him to say purple now, in response to the prompt of green.  Ha!  (Okay, only once, but it's a start.)

Not sure I understand what's going on here, but I can guarantee that smalls will pick up, and yell out, the most inconvenient words at the maximum inconvenient time.

The Drazi are a Babylon 5 race that appear in an episode to show a very bizzare kind of political struggle every five years. They randomly draw scarves to show their alliances, then proceed to conflict. (Non-lethal)

As to words they pick up...yeah, have to be VERY careful what words slip past my lips these days. Very careful indeed. (One utterance about the "stupid dog" has been plauging us for months now.)
