You know they will have to at some point. That will make me laugh even harder. :)<br /><br />Charlie came up with shooting with his little pointer finger when someone or something makes him mad...He did it the first time in London when Calvin and Henry were gone (they haven't done anything like that in recent memory anyway)and I was baffled. It makes me laugh (which I do stifle so as not to encourage) because he tries to look mean and he can't possibly, but when he did it at the beauty salon at the lady who would not quit googooing in his face, she was appalled and fearful for his future.
