[size=+3]WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE[/size][size=+1]By Maurice Sendak[/size]    [size=+2]The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of one kind and another.  His mother called him "WILD THING!" and Max said "I'LL EAT YOU UP!" so he was sent to bed without eating anything.  That very night in Max's room a forest grew and grew- and grew until his ceiling hung with vines and the walls became the world all around and an ocean tumbled by with a private boat for Max and he sailed off through night and day and in and out of weeks and almost over a year to where the wild things are.  And when he came to the place where the wild things are they roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws- till Max said "BE STILL!" and tamed them with a magic trick of staring into their yellow eyes without blinking once and they were frightened and called himthe most wild thing of all and made him king of all wild things.  "And now," cried Max, "let the wild rumpus start!"  "Now stop!" Max said and sent the wild things off to bed without their supper.  And Max the king of all wild things was lonely and wanted to be where someone loved him best of all.  Then all around from far away across the world he smelled good things to eat so he gave up being king of where the wild things are.  But the wild things cried, "Oh please don't go- we'll eat you up- we love you so!"  And Max said, "No!"  The wild things roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled theur terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws but Max stepped into his private boat and waved good-bye and sailed back over a year and in and out of weeks and through a day and into the night of his very own room where he found his supper waiting for him- and it was still hot.[/size]
 
And it was hot tub soup!

Birol, are you REALLY ready for this? It involves roaring and gnashing of terrible teeth and flailing around with a lot of "terrible claws" and you have to sail away in a boat. (Hmmm, but you do get to be KING of All the Wild Things, so maybe you would enjoy it.)

I thought this was normal for him:J

Umm, I escape to the safety of the basement now and re-pack all the stuff I had to unpack !

OK, so it's  "rumpus."  I was just trying to poke some fun at the Mod who used the word "ruckus" over something to do with the new board issues.  I think when grandpa used the word, ruckus, he mean the same thing as rumpus.:eek:

 
Yeah, Birol, get out of that basement now that the software is back in the boxes.

Nancy, your post is TOOOO FUNNY because I have always thought "ruckus" would have been a much better choice--it sounds so much more "Ruckessy" and  naughty.  I mean heck, I  remember the phrase "Rumpus Room" and somehow it just doesnt have the same wild flavor as ruckus     :S  :eek:  :W

NiteyOwl, I think we had one of those ruckus rumpus rooms in the house I was growing up.:eek:   Someone could go in there and not come back out and you really couldn't find anything.  There must have been some mean and evil spirited thangs hiding out in there.....
