Bones Wants Us to Show Her Our Phalanges!
Tonight on Fox we had new episodes for House and Bones. The people on Bones really know what they’re doing – because Bones + a baby = hilarity.
Bones’ Logical Guide to Babies
— Elephants are not purple. You should not give a baby a purple elephant unless you are trying to trick them. And why would you be trying to trick a baby?
— Another toy you should not give to a baby is a bear. In reality a bear would devour a small child. You need to teach the child to fear a bear.
— When the baby is complaining, offer some visual and auditory stimulation.
— When all else fails, make your phalanges dance! DANCING PHALANGES. (If you are like Booth, you may not realize that your phalanges are your fingers.)
Instead of “Show me the money!” we should say, “Show me your phalanges!”
The Bones picture is from beyond-bickering.net.

hahahahaha. There’s an episode of Friends where Phoebe tells someone over the phone that her name is Regina Phalange (this maybe is a recurring alias she uses? I can’t remember) While watching it with a friend, he mimicked her saying, “I’m Regina Phalange!” and I said “And I’m Reginald Metacarpal!” We still call each other by those names sometimes and it’s been like 5 years.
My sister had an elephant when she was a baby. It was cream colored with blue ears and played music if you wound up a little key on it’s side. I think she turned out mostly ok in spite of this. Bones obviously does not want her child to grow up to be creative.

I totally know what you’re talking about for Friends/Phoebe – she used that fake name a few times, it was the fastest one she could think of. Regina Metacarpal = AWESOME.
Omg. Can I get a cool nickname like that sometime?
Bones wants any child she has to memorize the periodic table by age 5, or something!
But, in a fun way. Maybe she would make up songs. She does like songs.
