I should have been in the FBI. There was actually a period of my life when I wanted to join up (probably a result of my addiction to the X-Files). But it wasn't until today that I discovered that I might actually have a penchant for solving crime.
I walked into the house after a brief fabric-shopping absence. Immediately, my highly trained powers of observation kicked in. My eyes focused on a small irregularity on my family room wall. Is that a booger? I look a little closer. Affirmative...we have a rogue booger sighting.
Who could be responsible for such a diabolical act? From the size of the booger and it's vertical placement on the wall I am able to create a brief profile of our perpetrator:
- Female.
- Age 3-5 years.
- Lives in the vicinity.
I quickly check off three individuals from my list of suspects. I compare the remaining two suspects' modus operandi and voila! I have ascertained the identity of the culprit! "How?" you may ask. It's elementary, my dear reader...I simply ruled out one suspect based on her well-known booger-eating habits.
Case closed. Take that, Scully!
