"Ah, the Price boy."

D3 is no shrinking violet:

1. He's a TV critic, for starters. Upon being informed that we were changing the channel from Noggin to The Weather Channel for the local forecast, he announced to his mom:

"I hate The Weather Channel. It sucks."

Must get it from his Uncle Doug. His father's vocabulary is as pure as the driven snow.

2. He's schedule-oriented. As Heather and I were finishing up dinner, he said he wanted to go outside to play. No problem there, except for the fact that Mom and Dad were still eating and conversing.

Mom: "When we're done with dinner, son."

D3: [Scowl. Pause. Then, gesturing with his index finger:] "I'll give you one minute."

I had to cover my mouth to keep from laughing out loud. I guess he's heard that a few too many times.
