Politcal words for games....

Today I laughed and began writing as John tried to talk me into helping him out (aka...give him money). As I picked up my pen he moaned, "Are you gonna blog this?". I could only laugh at the plea...it sounded suspiciously like Obama talking...

John....."Hey mom can you loan me $22 until tomorrow so I can buy a Stimulus Map Pack?"

me..."a what?"

John...."A stimulus Map Pack for my game." (Doesn't that sound political to you?)

me...."$22??"

John, becoming long suffering...." I need 1200 Microsoft points to buy the maps and I don't have enough, so if you loan me money I can buy points."

me...."where do you buy points?"

John...:"Game Stop" (duh..not sure why I even asked that one).

me...."why would you want to do that? You already have the game"

John....."It opens up new maps and new places to play...everyone else already has them mom."

me laughing...."seriously, everyone?"

John, my math minded smarty....."They do mom, I looked and 66,000 people are playing this very minute!"

me..."I'm not sure that's everyone:)"

I laughed and followed him to Game Stop so he could join the 66,000 people playing. You know I would feel so bad if he were left out! Plus, I fully intend to be reimbursed:)
