“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. “Oh no,” I said, “Disneyland burned down.” He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”

I do things of this type of my nieces and nephews… At some point, I was not allowed to go near my nephew Ahmad…Baha (my brother) claimed that “Ahmad - the 3 year-old has more brains than Amto Iman.” The way I see it is as innocent fun! kids love it ..and that’s exactly why I’m their favorite auntie! I think Baha is jealous because he lacks that special touch that kids just cannot resist!

“If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is, “God is crying.” And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is, ‘Probably because of something you did.’” Yep, sounds familiar

“Maybe in order to understand mankind we have to look at that word itself. MANKIND. Basically, it’s made up of two separate words “mank” and “ind.” What do these words mean? It’s a mystery and that’s why so is mankind.” I knew it was something along those lines!
“I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they’d never expect it.” LOL!

The good old days of SNL … I’m sure Hamzeh can come up with even deeper thoughts than Jack Handey’s!
