Ollie and Me: This is for all you chumps out there

This post falls under the heading of ‘Ollie and Me,’ though it could just as easily fit under ‘Where did he hear that?’ or ‘WTHeck!’

This afternoon Ollie and I played a marble game together (Drop marbles into a shute. See which one crosses the finish line first.) and I learned something new.

“The red one will win. The losers are chumps,” he said.

“What? Where did you hear that?” I said.

Ollie provided a fairly detailed explanation and it goes something like this: If you work on Sunday, like his mom does sometimes, and you get home late, after dad gets home, you’re a loser. Loooossserrr. And losers are chumps because they miss supper.

The kid is four. Already he has life figured out?

Anyway, if you’re still working right now and you’re going to miss supper... pick up the pace!

Okay, I'm pretty sure Ollie's dad was just joking around. But, what goes around...
