I believe the Nazi's invented housework. We all know they tested the mental fortitude of Jewish men by forcing them to to the same mundane task (shoveling dirt from one pile to another) over and over day by day. Any Mom will see the glaring parallel...
Now what about word repetition?

I I don't know know from word word reperepetition, but "Glaring Parallel" sounds like a good band name.
I don't know about housework, but I know the Nazis invented the Volkswagen Beetle.
B-Girl, the main use for repetitious household tasks is to free your mind for all the things you don't have time to think about, like- creative uses for dog hair, the most effective way to retrieve beans out of small children's noses, band names for your brother, etc,etc,etc.
Damn fine automobile, the Nazi Beetle.
perfect example: my girls are way into barbies and we have a barbie castle dollhouse the size of my living room. it's out ALL THE TIME. girls leave for the bus this morning and i get all the barbie stuff shoved in the closet, the beds made, a load of laundry put in. 5 minutes later the girls walk back in the door, school's on a delay today because of fog. get the castle back out...over and over and over...bring on the nazis
You know it is interesting how the same things come up. I have this need to be busy. To constantly be on the move and be productive. And in the midst of all this I have to realize that I need to stop and rest. And sometimes this means that the dishes don't get done and the floor does not get cleaned. I want peace, but it is so ingrained in me to be productive with every moment. How do we rest?
I don't know if the Nazi invented homework, but I do know that the Musslum invented algerbra.(yeah math is truely evil)
Roz, you a Kurt Vonnegut fan? He makes a similar observation in his recent "A Man Without A Country".
Did you know there is actually a special move nurses use to fully hold down all 4 limbs of a wild baby WHILE restraining his head, all this while removing a swollen raisin rammed in the nasal orafice with 9 in. tweezers. Or maybe it was just our nurse, she WAS a Vietnam vet.
B-
I totally remember SB telling us that story! I actually think my children are the Nazis! They are the ones giving me all of the monotonous work. LOL!
The only word repetition I hear is, "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mama, Mom, Mama, Mommy, Mama, Mom, Mommmmmyyyyy, Mama, Mommy." Can I change my name?
I've trained mine to say, "Hello precious mother, queen of our domain, we humbly request the sugarfree delights you have baked for us..." You have SUCH a long way to go...
Hee hee
Dr. I don't remember where I read that, but I remember thinking, if the musslum invented algerba, then who the the sick, demented person that invented calculus, cause that is truly evil and pointless.
Some horrible high school teacher with coffee/stale cig breath and no social life.
You had Mr. Trombley too?! Except you forgot his Polo cologne . . .
