    Living with someone who has Alzheimer's - anyone else?

    My MIL has lived with us (wife, three kids) for 18 years, since my oldest was three. On balance its worked out great. Her memory started to noticeably fade around a year ago, and over the last six months the pace has accelerated a ton. To live with someone who's going down this road can...

    Fake IDs - then and now

    Inspired by Chet’s thread on send his daughter to Europe, and her considering getting a fake ID for said trip. From what I understand it is very easy to get one these days via mysterious Chinese outlets. I have several college-aged nieces and nephews who have fake MA license that are spot-on...

    Did something pretty amazing today

    In the shower this morning, soap in right hand, I reached back awkwardly over my right shoulder to wash the elusive area between my shoulder blades. As often happens the wet soap slipped out of my hand, so I instinctively dropped the washcloth out of my taint-washing left hand and swung...

    Dear lady who doored my car tonight,

    After a quick stop at Home Depot after work this evening I got into my car to head home. I turned the ignition then paused to check email, and saw a red exclamation-pointed entry at the top of my inbox. Horrible news, critical deal pushing to 2018, the same order that just yesterday I'd assured...

    "Holy crap Dad, English class was crazy"

    I picked my 8th grade son up from school today, and the thread title is what he said to me as soon as he got in the car. Then he told me what went down. In the middle of class the teacher abruptly paused and asked my son's buddy Ethan to meet him outside in the hall. Ethan and Mr. Smith...

    First time you catch your HS kid drinking

    My daughter turns 17 in August, will be a junior next year, came home a little tipsy last night. Last day of school, went to a graduation party, and apparently had a few. Was not driving. Tried to deny it but it was obvious. Not stupid enough to think she's never done it before but first time...

    Last minute golf trip w/ son - where to go?

    My 14 y/o son is on break for two weeks starting Monday, his sisters will be in school. Wife suggested last night that he and I do something for a couple of days.

    Backyard skating rink

    Anyone else put themselves through this every year?  This is my third year doing it. My yard is not flat, 26" drop from one end of the 24x30' rink to the other. First year was great, kids skated from Jan 1 through end of March without a thaw. Last year was a disaster, got cocky and tried to go...

    Eric Decker appreciation thread

    Is anyone more dependable than this guy? Never get trade offers for him, and no sense in trying to deal him because you'd never get proper value in return. Just plug him in and get 5/70/1 every damn game.

    When is it worth involving insurance for car accident?

    On Monday night I backed into another car in a parking lot. There was no visible damage, it was dark, but I gave the lady my contact info just in case. She wanted to look at it in daylight. Yesterday she called to say the hood is dented and one of the headlights is pushed in a little. Now I need...

    First year hockey parent here, with a 7 yr. old son playing his first year of Mites. The end of the season is drawing near and I am seriously depressed about it.

    B. Arroyo or G. Floyd - two starters next week

    Both are available in my league. I'm thinking of dropping J Cruz, who I picked up while Soria is DL'd, moving Joba into an RP slot just for the week, and stealing an extra W or two with one of these guys. Floyd is home vs. Oak (TBA) and Clev (Huff) Arroyo @ StL (Wellmeyer) home vs Chic...

    guy in my league passed away last night - awful

    Just got this: :shark: Being new to the league I hardly knew the guy, met him for the first time in March when I sat next to him at the draft. I swapped a few trade-talk emails with him just yesterday. 41 years old, no known health problems. Life is strange. :fishy:
