Standard Disclaimer: He's named after the Indian Chief, not the city.

My 7 year old nephew was upset, as usual, with his 16 year old brother yesterday. While his brother was dozing in a recliner across the room, he told me all about it.

Seattle: "I'm so mad at him! But I'm gonna have my revenge!"
Me: "Oh really? How so?"
Seattle: "Just wait 'till March 17th rolls around. Just wait!"
Me: "Um, why? What happens on March 17th?"
Seattle: "Its St. Patrick's Day. And he probably won't remember to wear green. And THEN I'll get him! I'm gonna pinch him hard!"
Me: "You are truly a diabolical mastermind, dude. I bow before your evil genius."
Seattle: "Yeah. I know."

...and he ran off to play some more.

Long range planning, not a good thing to get this kid angry.

Reminds me of family gatherings long past. Except I tormented family members right then and there with lip-synch shows to entire Huey Lewis and the News albums.

Too funny! Thanks for the title; it would have been my question...

If St. Paddy's Day doesn't work, there's always Arbor Day.

No one expects an ambush on Arbor Day.

Peace,

Good point, Milton. Arbor Day is a lot like the Spanish Inquisition.

I thought maybe it was after the race horse, Seattle Slough...nah, I suspected it would be Chief.

Cool name, though. I just read about another kid whose family owns a ranch nearby - his name is "Brazos". I really like that one, too. Sounds like a main character in a Cormac McCarthy novel...

Is that really his name?!! (I am just commenting because I can. I wanted to say something last week, but I couldn't figure out how and I have just today figured out how to leave a comment on blogs that have not succumbed to the Blogger Beta!)

Yep, that's really his name. I've always thought it was pretty cool. I like Brazos, too, Pattie.
