Walking, talking in my big black boots

What does that say.

That is actually a line from a song by the Lench Mob, and has nothing to do with you, Master Kilian, but it is from such meaningless pop-culture snippets that Poppa's entire comedy oeuvre is driven.

In this "clip," to unfortunately borrow the language of America's Funniest Videos, which is truthful only about the first and third words of its title, that you begin to glean the difference between letters and numbers.

Riley plays a supporting role of an extra, wandering in and out of the frame.

You have started your second year at school in lower Manhattan, and Papa has left his job at MTV to pursue working at a private company.

Not to put your business on blast, but you are completely potty-trained, except for the nighttime, so we have to wake you up at 10pm every night to take you to the bathroom, and you manage to do it without fully waking up, but it does disrupt your sleep.

We are also trying to surreptitiously limit your liquids in the evening, but you aren't having any of that ("I'm thirsty," is a familiar refrain, and makes me feel bad, like I might go to jail for under-hydrating you, man.

We are in the middle of that process, and there is no going back.

Riley poops anyplace, on the other hand.
