About a year ago, The Suze and I went to dinner with The Meemz. Now, dinner with The Meemz is always an adventure because you never know if she's going to do or say something off-the-wall to or in front of the server.
On this particular occasion, The Meemz shared with us her views on Tahiti/Haiti, birth control and the FBI. The conversation went something like this......
(TM- The Meemz; TS- The Suze; L-Lindsay)
TM: I saw something on TV about all of the poverty in Tahiti. They really should do something about all of the homeless children there.
TS: Mom, what are you talking about?
TM: Tahiti- it is just in terrible shape.
L: Meemz, do you mean Haiti?
TM: Oh, yeah I guess so.
TS: Mom, there was a hurricane there in 2008 and then an earthquake in 2010. That's why there are so many homeless children. Haiti is a very poor country. They can't just bounce back from something like that.
TM: Well, what they really need is birth control. If George Bush Sr. and George Bush Jr. went over there, I bet they would have everything straightened out in a week. They need the FBI too. I love the FBI.
L: WOW.
TS: Mom, they had 2 natural disasters. That is why their country is in such poor shape. Birth control is not their problem.
TM: Well, the two George Bushes could still help. And the FBI.
