Vignettes #60


A friend of mine has 2 sons, the oldest one is attending 3rd grade elementary school. Recently my pal got a phone call by an irate priest who was giving his son lessons to prepare him for first communion. Obviously, his son had called the priest a 'Spatzerlhirn' which is a Bavarian expression, literally a 'sparrow's brain'. I don't think it needs any explanation. So while my friend politely aplogized for his son's behaviour, he was in fact quite proud of his boy.
