GC, those kids are dangerously adorable. Keep an eye on your credit card, or you might find yourself bankrupt from the spoiling of 'em. I should know, as my five niecphews have been able to get their Auntie Sparky to buy 'em whatever they've wanted with a dimpled grin for many years now. (The oldest is 16, and I've found myself wondering what I'm going to get her boyfriend for the holidays just because I think it'll make her smile.)

and said it was by Slick Rick and I happened to LOVE that song when it came out back in the mid-80s and know that it was actually by Doug E. Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew. Slick Rick was a member of the Get Fresh Crew. I'm a nerd in many areas.
GC kicks it old school, I like that.
Dude, I'm already in the crazy spoily Auntie category and I loves it! One of the things I love to do is buy books. I get $25 gift cards for carpooling at work every 3 months and I always use them to get books for the niecphew (love this word). I take full responsibility for my niece's love of books. They are her favorite "toy" and it makes me v. v. happy.
I rock:
Fresh became a major rap star in 1985. His single "The Show/La Di Da Di," is considered an early hip hop classic. The "Get Fresh Crew" was featured: DJs Barry B., Chill Will, and MC Ricky D (who would later achieve fame as Slick Rick).
Ladidadi we like to party
We don't cause trouble
We don't bother nobody
Hells yeah!
Heh, that reminds me of a friend of mine, whose name is Doug... we've called him "Fresh" for years and years, 'cause of the Doug E. Fresh thing... a couple weeks ago, he got an endorsement pitch for the original Mr. E. Fresh to his gmail account, because his address has "fresh" in it!
AWESOME.
OMG, I love that story! Hysterical. Now I really really want to hear that song, like crazybad.
Ha, Nora! Did he respond?
Ha, Nora! Did he respond?
I don't think so... but I should ask him! He was very fanboy SQUEEEE about it.
Now I really really want to hear that song, like crazybad.
Me too!
I read it twice and didn't say it yet, congrats for msbelle and mac!
