Signs that your child watches too much TV (July 1998)

Jolee, while watching a commercial on tv, heard the ad jingle "Shop
right and always save" and chimed in with "save" before the commercial
did.

Jolee's favorite TV show SESAME STREET is holding on to a narrow lead
over THE SIMPSONS. At the end of the show, when they present the Gracie
Films logo and the accompanying "Shhh!" sound (the logo features a
perosn shushing someone in the back of a darkened theatre), Jolee puts a
finger to her lips and shhhhhhs! everyone in the room.

Jolee's home today. She has had pink eye, a touch of croup, and a bit of
bronchitis (in that order) and a few days apart, thus necessitating
three separate trips to the doctor. She's still her fun self and is home
today, practicing the chorus of "It's Only Rock N Roll" by the Rolling
Stones.
She is very good at this.

So good, I have taught her to howl along with Warren Zevon in the song
"Werewolves of London"
