A clue...
that it's time to get back to school work.
While plotting my living room dusting strategy, I noticed that our little statue of Romulus and Remus with the Capitoline Wolf was nowhere to be seen. A simple inquiry, "has anyone seen Romulus and Remus?," lead to a response of, "Romulus and Remus? They suck." Owing to my delicate sensibilities, it took about three go rounds before I got the joke. I had to restate my policy on the general use of the word "suck." Babies and vacuums suck. Otherwise, try not to use the word.

According to the jailhouse homeschool lawyers, the joke should supposedly be OK. On the basis that Romulus and Remus are (were) babies. I'm not impressed. And certain family members are still repeating "Romulus and Remus? They suck." Oh the juvenile capacity to get the maximum mileage out of a mediocre pun.
