When I was a kid I loved Highlights magazine. Are they even still in circulation? Anyway, in this magazine my favorite column was the “Goofus and Gallant” article. Goofus was exactly what the name implies, always complaining and not very nice. Gallant was every parent’s dream child. Gallant was courteous, always Mr. nice guy. So I thought why not a nod to two of my favorite kids?

Just to be perfectly clear, I am not Goof Cris and any association to persons alive or dead are purely coincidental. Honestly, I’m not Goof Cris. If you think about it I could be Gallant Cris. I mean she’s kind of nice and I’m nice. Oh just forget it, it’s a parody lighten up…

Both of you are too funny! Have a great weekend!
My favorite too as a child. Then my mother gave a subscription to my daughter growing up. I think I may have seen one recently in a Dr's waiting room, but can't be sure. Terah
Funny how we all swing from one to the other!
BTW, saw that you've got your Zazzle store up and running (down at the foot of the page)! Well done - how's it going?
Too funny, I think I'm a little bit of both Good Cris and Goof Cris.
p.s. I get Highlights invitations for my son quite often so they are alive and well!
You just crack me up ! Always a pleasure to read your fabulous posts they make my day.
