Pa forgot more than he remembered over the course of the year, but he will never forget destroying his calf in a tennis match with Thing 1.
Ma will remember 2006 as the year her dad followed in her footsteps with a belly operation.
Thing 1 cannot recollect any overly memorable good or bad experiences over the past year (possibly because be can’t differentiate reality from Game Cubedumb. His news story of the year was one that reported Japanese fishermen who landed a living fossil thought to be extinct until now (sounds hard to swallow even for a culture that eats raw fish). Favorite Television Show: One Piece. Favorite Movie: Tossup between Eragon and Happy Feet
Thing 2 tells me that his most memorable moment from 2006 was the opening light show at the IMAX cinema before “Night at the Museum”. Must have been something given it was also the year he witnessed the Cirque du Soleil, spent a week at a cottage on Sand Lake, joined cubs, buried his pet hamster Gohan, and discovered America’s Funniest Home Video’s and Malcolm in the Middle. Favorite Show: Zatch Bell. Favorite Music: Crazy Frog
