Baby Mishaps

“He just shot off the changing table like a well-fed cannonball.”

New dad Marcus Vale meant well. But when he reversed the Velcro direction on his baby’s diaper and added “just a smidge too much powder,” he unknowingly engineered the world’s first infant propulsion device. “One wiggle, and BOOM–she launched,” he said, cradling a wall dent.

Experts warn this is a common issue with overly ambitious parenting. “When in doubt, front-to-back,” said pediatrician Dr. Lana Wick. “Not tailpipe-to-nostrils.”

The baby is fine, if slightly smug. She now wears a helmet and has acquired a new nickname: Jetstream Julia.

Auf Wiedersehen, amigos.

By Katie Rich

Katie Rich was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, where irony drips as thick as the humidity and every parade doubles as political commentary. She later made her way north to Northwestern University, earning a degree in Theater while moonlighting as a stand-up comic in bars where the gumbo was spicier than the hecklers. Rich built her reputation as a fearless comedy writer, contributing to television’s sharpest satire before landing her byline at Bohiney.com. As both a satirical journalist and stand-up performer, she skewers politics, pop culture, and the strange rituals of everyday life with equal precision, often turning the chaos of Louisiana’s colorful traditions into comedy gold. Known for her blend of absurdity, empathy, and sharp timing, she delivers journalism that feels like an exposé disguised as a punchline. With bayou grit and academic polish, Katie Rich’s EEAT bio proves she’s both trusted and hilariously untrustworthy.
