Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

Been caught cheatin' (once, when he was five)

Monkeyjack and I were trying desperately to boost the money on Lego Star Wars II. This is actually Charlie's game. Monkeyjack and I were mid-level when, Charlie had to use the bathroom at night. He popped out into the other room to find his Gamecube in use. "What's that?" "Whatcha doing'?" "I'll just shut that off."

Monkeyjack and I "fibbed" about our not not using it and said that we were about to watch a movie. Monkeyjack moved the unit, trying to prevent his clever son from turning off the unit. Try as he might ... Charlie was faster. We tried again, with no sound this time, and finished. 3 a.m. and Monkeyjack was sleeping at the control. Monkeyjack bought the desired unit -- Boba Fett.

I guess it doesn't pay to lie.
