I Gotta Share This.......

Let me premise this by saying that my 12 year old Daughter is a very smart kid.....brings home straight "A's" on her report cards....but she has a tendency to have, what me and my wife refer to as, "Blonde Moments"

So the other night I'm watching TV w/ my daughter and I flip onto TCM and they happen to be showing "A Night at the Opera". I'm a big fan of The Marx Brothers so I stop to watch it. I say to my Daughter "You'll like these guys, the Marx Brothers, they are hysterical"

She says "I've heard of them....the one w/ the mustache...that's Karl, Right."

I start laughing and after I explain to her who Karl Marx was, she starts laughing and realizes she just had another "Blonde Moment"

So we're watching and she's asking questions about the Marx Bro's and then there's a scene w/ all 4 of them on the screen. I say "there ya go, there's Groucho, Harpo, Chico, and Zeppo" and I explain which is which and I'm explaing what they do as part of their Schticks.

She asks "What does Zeppo do"

I say "Not Much as far as funny....he's more of the Straight Man"

and she says...........


........wait for it......


.........."You mean the other 3 were Gay"

I don't know which was funnier, the movie or the conversation.

just thought I'd share one of life's funnier moments
