^ Yes, she turns 7 in Karen's Birthday, which is LS #7. I like that one. ;D A funny scene I just read today is the Pet Show in Dance School Phantom. That is one of my favorites. ;D

One part I like is in European Vacation, where Stacey and her mom are upset about finding the ashes in the suitcase and Kristy says they should go to Baker Street.

just looked at it again and Mallory mentions what Baker Street is earlier in the book (Kristy reacts by saying she can go for some pastries )

A lot of the situations I find funny involve the Pikes. Also the Barrett kids can be hilarious. One I just read that had me laughing was during the Pike room wars in All New Mallory, Nicky chains himself to the bed. For some reason, this gave me the funniest mental picture. ;D I also loved Vanessa's sign on the door "Knock you silly jerk. In here is a poet at work." (or something like that) ;D

I was just laughing thinking about how Buddy Barrett names the band that is marching in the parade "the Buddy Barrett Marching Band" and then is so embarrassed that he has to whisper it to one of the sitters when they ask what the name of the band is. ;D What book was this in?

I love it when Kristy tells the Baby-Sitter’s Agnecy that she has a date with Winston Churchill in Truth About Stacey and Stacey starts laughing so hard that hse has to run to the bathroom before they can hear her over the phone. ;D

That definitely is a funny one. Why on earth she thought of that name I can't imagine! Like I should squawk. When I need a "John Doe" name, I use Karl LaFong, which comes out of a WC Fields movie called "It's a Gift." Hard to get more obscure than that!

I use the name of the Belarusian national poet whose poems my mom had to memorize in belarusian school as a kid. ;D

Now, that IS more obscure. Me and my big mouth!
