I didnt know Scooby Doo was French

For the first time in France and probably the world, a dog has appeared as a witness in criminal proceeding. The dog, nicknamed Scooby, is believed to have been with his owner when she was found hanging from the ceiling of her apartment. The police believed it was a suicide but the woman's family disagreed and demanded a murder investigation. During a preliminary hearing Scooby was led into the witness box by a vet to see how he reacted to a suspect. The dog "barked furiously" at the suspect and it is now up to a judge to determine if there is sufficient evidence to launch a full murder inquiry. The dog seemed reluctant to testify at first but was convinced with the help of some kids in a van and three scooby snacks.

The "Men of War"

It was foggy on the battlefield that misty morning. One man walked triumphantly towards the dividing line. On one side his friends and comrades on the other strangers who couldn't imagine what was coming there way
Today was our first dodge ball game we were there before the opposing team so we got to warm up. As they walk in I say hello and the first guy doesn't reply so i say hi to the second who mutters a hello. before the game starts we review the rules and then line up on opposite sides of the court. The whistle blows and my mind takes me to the starting line of a race and I take off, as i grab the two dodge balls that were in my reach i look over to see my whole team following suit. We have control of all the balls and the other teams chances look slim. 30 minutes later we have won three straight games and i have only fallen straight on my back once and fallen over the dividing line twice. We win the whole game and we walk home victorious. The "Men of War" are 1 and 0 and looking forward to their next game on tuesday. Tim Abbott was the MVP of the game. Score 1 for the Abbotts in Dodge Ball!!!!!!!!

the other day we were finger painting on the kitchen table and Simon decided that there was more then just the paper that could be his palet. Simon.. Life is your palet. I hope you all enjoy our little pieman, we sure do.

What Dad does when we aren't watching
