Ancient Chinese Stacking Rings

September 17th, 2007

Well, the day before my first birthday, I figured it was time I finally mastered the art of the chromatic stacking toroids. Join me for a few photos of my training session.

You've met your match Mr Fisher Price...

Attempt 3

Oh silly. As you can see here, early on in my transformation into the Ultimate Stacking Baby Genius, my focus was so great that the all-important green ring sometimes escaped notice.

I can hear the headlines already: 'Baby Genius Stacks Rings, Eats Own Weight in Peanut Butter

Attempt 13

Doh. Plainly, as I progressed further into my intense discipline the colors and shapes began to peel away leaving only meanings and gestures. Some colors, like green, receded into the background during this stage of the process only to reemerge later, stronger than ever.

Are you Winnie the Pooh-ing me? How did I forget the green one?

Attempt 25

Um…Here I am with my abilities honed to near perfection. Only the most trifling of ring colors can avoid the skill of this soon-to-be maestro.

Touche, Mr Price, touche.

Attempt 47

Aha. At last the student has become the master. The completed Rock-N-Stack tower represents perfection in all aspects of a happy life. The bottom, blue, ring represents the life-giving water of our Earth. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together. The second, green, ring, wait….where the? I quit.

The Fisher Price Rock-N-Stack is a small pile of plastic hokum. There’s no mystical energy field that controls MY destiny!

Piglet Out!
