Waldo The Movie – Official Trailer

Unclear on the Concept

59-year-old man attempts to rob store with a bullet. 

The cashier told officers the man approached her register softly mumbling. She asked him several times if she could help. The man finally spoke loud of enough for her to hear that he wanted money and “this was a robbery,” according to the police report.

It was then the man pulled the bullet out of his jacket pocket.

Officers noted the strong odor of alcohol coming from the man.

You don’t say?

Doing Something Right

The other night, the Newt was expressing some concerns over someone breaking in our house through his bedroom window.  I explained to him that I’m here to protect him and that even with a ladder it would be pretty difficult and they would probably try someplace else easier.

“Not if they have a jet-pack.” he replied.

Seeing that his logic was sound, I had to concede that yes, if they had a jet-pack then maybe it was a possibility.

I came home from work last night and when I went to tuck him in, I found him asleep in his bed with his Nerf bat which he had written “Skull Cracker” on with a Sharpie, complete with a little skull. 😀

So let this be a warning to any jet-pack wearing burglars out there… Newt’s taking care of business.
