The Baroness promises that if you bear with me just a little at the beginning of this post, I will reward you with the written equivalent of a lovely set of Ginzu knives.
All for the low, low price of $19.99!
(fyi , it's always $19.99)
I am truly honored to have been tagged for a meme by the lovely Blog Antagonist over at Blogs Are Stupid. She is a real wordsmith, that one, and I love, love LOVE her writing.
How could I refuse? It's like turning down a cigar from Don Corleone - just ain't done. Unless, of course, you have some dead-animal-head-fetish. And, well really. At that point, it's between you and YouTube. I wash my hands of the whole sordid affair. Go ahead, ruin your life. See if I care.

OK, on to the promised Ginzu knives. Were you aware that the Baroness adores children's books? I actually enjoyed reading them a smidge more than my kids when they were little, and thus began the shift where I decreased in mental age, and they became the parents.
Here though, are some titles I missed, but have been brought to my attention:
"The Boy Who Died From Eating All His Vegetables"
"Dad's New Wife Robert"
"Fun Four-Letter Words to Know and Share"
"Curious George and the High-Voltage Fence"
"All Cats Go To Hell"
"The Little Sissy Who Snitched"
"That's It, I'm Putting You Up for Adoption"
"The Magic World Inside the Abandoned Refrigerator"
"The Pop-Up Book of Human Anatomy"
"Pop! Goes the Hamster...And Other Great Microwave Games"
"Daddy Drinks Because You Cry"
"Some Kittens Can Fly!"
"Mr. Fork and Ms. Electrical Outlet are Friends?"
"Start a Real-Estate Empire With the Change From Your Mom's Purse"
"How to Become the Dominant Military Power in Your Elementary School"
and the Baroness' favorite, for personal reasons:
