A Boy's Interpretation of proper etiquette

As my daughter shared with us some wisdom from the etiquette book she was reading, her brothers gazed on with intense interest. She read an excerpt, "A real gentleman never wears his pants for 2 days at a time." My 8 year old son replied, "Well, I'm doing well, I wear mine for three!" (Oh Lord................... help me! ;-)

One of our next family books to purchase is:
