Gido's Rules - 2006 Version

In 2006, "A", Dustin and I had the very good fortune to travel to Newfoundland and Labrador. We spent a week traveling all around the great province and we even drove up to L'Anse aux Meadows which is the most northern tip of the province and where the Vikings first landed a long time ago.

During the trip, it was "necessary" to make a few rules that Dustin and I could abide by. This is the 2006 version:

Rule #1: Gido is the Boss.
This rule was necessary (I believed) to ensure order and discipline during the trip.

Rule #2: Always hold hands when we are crossing a street or road.
This is a good safety rule and was created near Dildo, Newfoundland when Dustin almost walked into the path of a car.

Rule #3: No holding your "wiener" in public.
This is a good rule for young boys.

Rule #4: No running in a store.
Another safety rule and was necessary for the protection of the public at the Home Depot Store in St. John's.

Rule #5: No whining.
This rule was created after the following question was asked several times ... "Are we there, yet?"

These are good rules, with the exception of the first rule. This rule has got me into a lot of trouble in the past year as it strayed me away from my ultimate beliefs. I am not the boss and never had been. Since my operation, I have had a lot of time to think about what the 2007 rules should be. I will elaborate tomorrow.

Rule #3 is a good rule for all boys, not just young ones.
