Sometimes a family doesn't have to be a mom, a dad, two kids, a dog, and a house in the suburbs. The contemporary family can include a step-mother or step-father. Sometimes there are two moms, two dads.
A family can be several children and a loving aunt and uncle. A family can also be a grandmother, her grand kids, and a helpful nanny.
A family can be ten dads. That's it, just ten dads with no kids.
A family can also be ten kids with not one dad between the lot of them.
A family can be one kid, all by himself, alone in the woods.
Or maybe a family does have a mom, a dad, and two kids -- but take a closer look at that dad. He's a woman.
Let's say you've got 30 kids, a Hyundai Elantra, and three quarts of milk. That's a family.
A fat guy, a watermellon, and a stack of magazines? Family.
How about a collection of people who look very much like a family, but I promise are of no relation whatsoever? Guess what, I lied. That's a family. Sue me.
Or maybe you got a family, but they get all jumbled up with some other family -- family.
Picture if you will the entire population of Rhode Island... now picture their thanksgiving.
Let's take another look at this family whose dad turned out to be a woman. There's still something fishy about them. Maybe it's that mom. Waitaminute... that's no woman, that's a magazine.
A Jew, a Catholic, and a Muslim walk into a bar. Do I even have to say it?
A train leaves Chicago going east at 20 miles per hour. Don't make me say it!
Pull my finger. Family.
Well, I think I made my point. There are lots of different families out there.
