"I'm her mom...no she is not!"

I was dared to do this.

In an amazing find about two months ago, I stumbled upon this 2008 YouTube video in which a six-year-old girl narrates a children's book titled Kittens. The video, "Kittens, inspired by kittens" shows a closeup of the book, and as the girl turns each page, she gives animated voice and personality to each of the kittens pictured. I had heard somewhere that the video received 750,000 hits in one afternoon on YouTube. I don't really know why I like this video so much, but I must admit that I have yet to watch it without laughing out loud. The girl is hysterical! I hope that I get to see her do stand-up one day. Hell, I would pay $50 bucks to see her read this book live on stage. I paid $30 to see Elmo sing about sharing, so "Kittens Live" would be a welcomed change. I don't know where kids come up with their ideas, but I believe that their innocence and lack of a hardened societal filter embedded in their brains is something that we all could learn from. So I present to you the purest form of comedy left on this earth: A little kid and a whole lot of kittens. Queen Bees Buzz...I am a man!

*Note: Check out her left arm at the beginning of the video. She is sporting a gigantic tattoo. She just went up three points on the cool-kid scale.
