Kiran and Shaan's World

You don’t get more American than this – I’m eating an apple pie popsicle in one hand and shaking hands with a Native American with the other. If I we’re any more American you’d be obligated to stand up and salute your computer monitor right now. U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! – Kiran

IT’S A FACT! 

The planet Earth is flat and is becoming flatter. Or wait. Was it ever flat before? – Shaan

Mmmm…Well, sometimes I say “No” just to say “No”. Sometimes I say “No” when I mean “Yes”. And sometimes I say “No” as a “metaphor for judgments based on preconceived notions”. I don’t know why. I’m not saying it’s right. That’s just how it is. – Kiran

Okay, so this morning I thought I’d slip out for a little siesta because it’s 700 degrees in the house today, but as soon as I reached my siesta spot, I fell into a deep slumber and could hardly drag myself back to the house for my labor intensive afternoon nap. – Shaan  

Tomorrow I’ll be lounging at the pool wearing a Pucci thong and a weightlifter’s belt. Probably Vuitton. Definitely a weightlifter’s belt – you don’t want back strain when you’re walking around with 50 lbs of gold chains and medallions. – Kiran

Today I spent the morning teaching Shaan his numbers. So far he can count with “one,” “two,” and “many”. – Kiran

When choosing a gym, it’s important to evaluate a number of variables that contribute to a good workout experience. The range and number of training programs offered and the quality of available equipment are important but the real dilemma of how to choose a gym boil down to the following three issues:

1. The primary question is, inevitably, “Will I look good in this gym?” (The all-important corollary: “Do other people look good in this gym?”)

2. Does the gym have Butt-Lifting and Contouring Technology?

3. Paying an exorbitant initiation fee guarantees that you will definitely start going to the gym all the time. But then you realize that you’re basically paying to feel guilty. Remember: Feeling guilty should be free.

Um, why does Kiran enjoy pointing outside the windows of moving vehicles and yelling out new, absurd words for the familiar things he sees? In baby culture, this way of communicating is very non-traditional but very exciting. – Shaan

SMILE OF THE DAY

This popsicle died and was then resurrected after a short trip to the freezer. (I was either going to go for a “Lazarus” joke or a “something to do with Jesus” line and then I decided it was sandwich time.) – Kiran
