    Taking in a child from a troubled home NOV '23 UPDATE: Epilogue

    So, um... Hi? It's been what, 5 years since I've been here and don't know how many people are still here who remember me or this thread but I can now report that the story has a happy ending. To my pleasant surprise Padme's mom was able to stay sober. She petitioned the court to get custody...

    Brand Spanking new ***OFFICIAL*** Ohio State Buckeyes thread!

    OSU defense needs a lot of work if they expect to be in the playoffs.

    Brand Spanking new ***OFFICIAL*** Ohio State Buckeyes thread!

    In an OSU Homer, but I have to admit the Whiteout thing is very impressive. Hard for the visitors to play in that environment. I love seeing that.

    How many States have you been to?

    I haven't counted the states that I've been to versus those I haven't  but it's probably a good ratio. When I was a kid my dad had a camper on the back of his pickup truck and we drove cross country every year. One summer we would drive from Ohio to Nebraska to visit his parents. The next summer...

    Taking in a child from a troubled home NOV '23 UPDATE: Epilogue

    First time I've posted in a long time, and there's a reason for that. I got laid off from my job at JPMorgan Chase after working there for 25 years. I've been out of work for months. I sank into a depression unlike any I've ever known in my life. This entire year has sucked, plain and simple. ...

    Brand Spanking new ***OFFICIAL*** Ohio State Buckeyes thread!

    Man, I hope so. I was not impressed tonight. Run defense is pitiful, been shredded the last two games. There's lots of room for improvement.  But, you can't argue with 3-0 with a win against a top 15 team. Good start to the year.

    2018 College Football Thread: Local man buys some teenage champions a 4 for 4

    Yeah, that wasn't targeting and I'm a Buckeye Homer through and through. I'm glad it got reversed.

    Calling it "the N-Word" is silly.

    What's wrong with "Attractive and successful African-American?"  :hifive: fellow Farkers

    Solo: A Star Wars Movie

    Don't be surprised to see that as a main plot point in a Boba Fett movie.

    Solo: A Star Wars Movie

    I saw it a couple days ago and really enjoyed it. I had no problems with the actor playing Han - he was parsecs better than Hayden Christensen as Anakin.  It was a fun movie to watch. I don't think it added anything to the Star Wars mythos, but it also didn't detract anything. All in all, it...

    FFA Bored Games - 9/22 SHEEP IS BAAAAAAAAAAAAACK - Reveal and podium!

    @Wingnut, I apologize for missing the cutoff and forcing you into a job you were not prepared for, and never asked for. I was supposed to be the Black Sheep but real life got in the way and I didn't see this thread until it was much too late. @hagmania, to you I also apologize. I told you I...

    Sorry I didn't make it on time, we just got back from seeing Solo.

    Taking in a child from a troubled home NOV '23 UPDATE: Epilogue

    Yes," Intensive Family-Based Services" is what they're signing us up for. Basically, a therapist will come to our house to talk not only with Padme, but with the rest of the family as well. 3-5 hours of counseling a week, as opposed to the 1 hour she's getting now. It sounds great and I think...

    Taking in a child from a troubled home NOV '23 UPDATE: Epilogue

    Padme is fundamentally against taking meds because her mom and dad both are drug addicts. She hears "drug" and is immediately turned off of it. It's difficult to even get her to take Sudafed if she's stuffy, or Tylenol if she has a fever.  When we met with the pediatrician, the doc was...
