They are gonna have fun with that decision. I hope they really know more about what is good for a 4 year old than he does.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Plus, one day, he'll be bigger'n'me. Might be wise to try and remember that.
He will then respect you for it.

I find it quite amusing watching my kids raise their kids.

Mrs Z would not be amused.

Try it when they live with you. And you're one of the the people charged with adulting. It rises from 'amusing' to 'interesting'. Sometimes, it even achieves 'challenging' (I have some current bite-marks on my tongue).

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Hi Fred, different world that's for sure.

[David G]

I don't envy you your position there. I have several healed over bite marks on my own tongue. Mrs Z would not have been able to contain herself!

Indeed it is, Bobby!

I only bite down when - even if I'm correct - interjecting at that moment would do more harm than good. We, as I say, have regular conversations so that the adults can agree on an approach and present a (much needed) united front. With the 4, I regularly bring up the Bunghole Theory of child rearing...

[David G]

That's a wee bit harsh, David. Although, I believe it would have been appropriate for my older brother (middle child syndrome).

That's his grandma's position also. Too harsh. His parents vacillate <G>

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

The smart ones are always a pain in the ass.
They talk about the terrible 2's but 4 is way worse.
In my opinionated opinion 4 is more terrible than any age for a boy!
What do I know, I only raised 3 sons and 2 stepsons?
Now girls, there's a real mystery.

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

I was at this show.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Got a couple of hours of sleep before the pain took over, now I am awake for a while.

[Glen Longino]

Yum, fresh coffee and a petrified brownie somebody dropped...have a good day mis amigos.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Morning Glen, David dropped the brownie I think.

[Glen Longino]

Morning Bobby...I'm sure you are right!

[Glen Longino]

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Good tune Glen.

[David G]

Morning All,

Weren't my brownie got dropped. Mine got chewed. Kevin must have so many they're spilling outta his pockets <G>

Kev - that Springsteen show... were you in high school?

Mmmmm... dry out there now, but headed for heavy rain. <sigh>

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Morning David, I think our rain is finally moving out for a day or two.
I knew you would never fess up to the brownie drop.

[David G]

My next move is to blame it on Curtism... he ain't around to protect hisself <G>

[Bobby of Tulsa]

I guess that might work for a while.

[David G]

I guess that might work for a while.

Well... normally, of course, my first thought would be to blame the Okie. No one has trouble buying THAT one. But since you're feeling poorly, I'm trying to take it at least a little bit easy on ya! <G>

[Bobby of Tulsa]

I would never leave a brownie I dropped on the floor, if it don't fall in dog poo or worse I am eating that sucker. I use the five minute rule, if I can find it in that length of time I am eating it. About the only thing I don't try to save is pizza if it lands face down.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

If I am able, tomorrow I will make a pot of frijoles barrachos. We will have leftover meatloaf and baked sweet potatoes tonight. Some time over the weekend I hope to do a seafood gumbo.

[Glen Longino]

Tequila on the bar...

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Hey Glen, was just thinking about you, hope you had a good day.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Tequila and Shiner Bock, works for me and beats the hell out of reading all the bad news.

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

Kev - that Springsteen show... were you in high school?

I skipped school and used a fake ID to get in.
I was a bad boy back then and still am.

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

Would you eat this one?

[David G]

Cinnamon and guajillo? Sure, I'd hit it.

Yes, hot peppers go well with chocolate. Best chicken mole' I ever had (in New Hampshire, of all places) was flamethrower hot, and I still miss that restaurant.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Morning guys, coffee, rum, beer and tequila and hot water on the stove for the tea and instant coffee drinkers.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Be careful and enjoy your trip. My traveling days are over pretty much.

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

Some travelin music for Fred!
Have a good trip !






cuidado con la policía!!!

Morning All,

Got the electricians on tap again this morning. Should be fun... I'm gonna have to have them redo some of their earlier work <sigh>

[skuthorp]

Morning all, 4.20 am. Got to drive to the city this morning at 6, pea souper fog even at our height. Nasty.
