		<description>&lt;i&gt;Note to future Rikuto:&lt;/i&gt; Hi son, dad here. Mike was talking about an action movie parody in which our faces were pasted onto the actors. It&#039;s a bit violent, but just a comedy. You were never really blown up as a baby. Love always, Dad.</description>

		<description>This vid cracked me up and I feel so sorry for the little baby! Well almost as sorry as when I blew him up in Unnecessary Force. Check out Unnecessary Force here at http://www.michaelmckinlay.com/2007/14/10/mike-mckinlay-in-unnecessary-force/</description>

		<description>I guess I should consider myself lucky! I&#039;d love to find some Dr. Seuss or Tolstoy, but Harry Potter is the only book I own! :)</description>

		<description>That&#039;s so funny - so many parents complain they can&#039;t get their babies to sleep and you can&#039;t get yours to wake up! Maybe he was just feigning sleep cos he&#039;s already read Harry Potter and wants something else - Dr Seuss was the favourite of my kids but maybe Rikuto is beyond that - perhaps  something by Tolstoy?</description>

		<description>I was trying to think of something to say to this but mmmmmm words do escape me on this one Nick!!! Poor little Rikuto was subjected to Harry Potter when all he wanted to do was sleep haa haa haa!!
I actually read something somewhere about how natural tones from either the father or mother can stimulate a baby&#039;s learning. I&#039;m not an expert but do imagine a Harry Potter book would be a good choice for a baby and it&#039;s learning curve!
Saying that, I wish my mum let me watch &quot;Debbie does Dallas&quot; or something of that nature because that surely would have stimulated my............................................ learning curve haa haa haa!!
