What's Playing the week of October 9, 2006

How life changes for a three year old. Now it's Power Rangers 24/7. How does that brand brainwash children so quickly? A few weeks ago a Lillian Vernon magazine showed up; it's for Mistress but I do admit browsing, and it was the Halloween edition with costumes. As a Mo is want to do he sits in my lap and we look through magazines so he can pick out visual items he recognizes- pumpkins, turkey's, ghosts, etc.

On the last page was Power Ranger costumes. This inquisitive three year old got very animated all of sudden and barely contained himself asking, "Daddy, Daddy, what's that! There coooool." "Those are Power Rangers, Mo"
"Pow'r Rang'r. Wow. Daddy, I a Pow'r Rang'r"

That was the end. No more Land Before Time, no more Disney. For now at least. The hard part that Mistress and I are learning is that there are several different Power Ranger shows and uniforms and accessories.
