GM's thread about nothing (9 Viewers)

I picked up Mrs. SLB's jewelry today. Decided to only give her a few pieces for Christmas. My older female cousin that works at the shop says I'm a genius. My younger female cousin says I'm nuts and I'm going to be busted.

Bets have been placed.

I'm on busted.
:goodposting: the only thing he has going for him is that it sounds like he was taking the jewels and having them reset, but what chick gets a diamond and isn't like I remember when you gave me a similar diamond 10 years ago only to take it away from me a couple years later for safe keeping :shrug:
 
I've had "Careless Whispers" stuck in my head off and on since hearing it while on hold with Verizon five days ago. Mostly

You do know the song is actually called "Rock On" by David Essex or Michael Damian - 89 version or Def Leppard from a few years ago :bag: and, yes it sucks

Yep.Think you're going down in flames here GBSLB.ETA: But you do have a built in excuse. That bump on the melon you got in the pool. You can always say you had it put away and just remembered it. If she calls you on it, just :mellow:

That's absurd! Oh man...I don't think I'd do well in Iowa. :unsure: Meanwhile, at my house...The boys don't have school tomorrow because it is Friday. They also don't have school on Mondays, when teachers need to issue report cards, when teachers need to hold conferences, prepare for conferences or schedule conferences. It's a treat when they DO go to school during the week here in Oregon. Anyhow, Cooper got an invite to spend the night at one of his myriad buddies house. And though Thursdays belong to my ex-wife, I told her and Kellen that he could invite one of his few buddies over for a sleepover since he rarely gets the invites his brother does and, well, I hate that for him.So he asked to invite over the one friend of his I just cannot stand, Louie. No manners, irritating, goofy looking, makes weird noises, messy...but, it's Kellen's best friend and their family is nice enough to invite him over. As bad as Louie is, his father is 10x worse. Dude will call my cell and leave long, rambling, creepy messages about getting the boys together. He talks in this slow, deliberate, irritating fashion that makes me want to scream "FAST FORWARD!!!!" Louie's mom and dad are divorced and once Louie's dad met my ex-wife a couple years back, he began to call her and ask her out on dates. He would ask her to go get tea and go on walks...he invited her to a laser light show...without ever going on one date with her, he asked her to go to Seattle with him to watch U2. Guy's a total weirdo.No idea where this was going. Oh, neat...the two of them are playing Wii's Dance Party to "Who Let the Dogs Out". Murder me. My wife and baby are hiding in the back bedroom. Any parents deal with kid's friends whom you can't stand? Advise?
 
Louie and I are fighting because I told the boys they could rent a movie off DirecTV but they could not rent Battleship because Rotten Tomatoes killed it and he'd already seen it. I think he hates me more than I hate him. :lmao:

I went through this with my kids. One of the hardest things about being a parent is dealing with the friends that they have that may not be all that pleasant to be around. The key is patience. Remember that it is important for your boys to have friends and to feel accepted. Just roll with it and do the best you can.

 
Also today...

We were visited today by a 6' Tall, 25-year old Mormon gal who is home on Xmas break from BYU Grad School. She used to work at the business next door to us for about a year and she spent about an hour every work day wasting time with us, which is unusual considering we are the most un-PC, crassest group of dirty old men one could find. We joke that it would take about 20 minutes for a female employee to lob a formal complaint against us in a court of law. And yet this tall, lithe, young Mormon gal became like a little sister to all of us and it was our urging that helped get her into BYU Grad school. She's great.

Well, she has had a marvelous time at BYU this past semester and has found the dating scene sublime (a large complaint she held against Portland). Through a mutual friend, she was set up on a blind date with a former NBA player who is about 10 years older than her and is more famous for his off-court antics than he is anything he ever did on the hardwood (though he was a really good college player and is back at his alma matar (sp?) as an assistant coach). They had a great date and she really liked him, but she's had no contact since and appealed to us for advice.

So, this morning, while she hung out with us, I helped her develop a strategy to secure a date with

In a way, I feel like I'M the one chasing Mark Madsen. :wub: It feels...it feels so damn exhilarating! :excited: I mean, the only thing better would be coaching a gal to land the great Brian Scalebrene! :banned: :banned: :banned:

:goodposting: They are both now eating Drumsticks and hammering them like Leonardo DeCrapio in Basketball Diaries. FML. :lmao:
 
I think I'd rather see a Matchbox 20 tribute band than the actual Matchbox 20.
"We had our high school reunion last summer. We couldn't afford the Molly Hatchet tribute band so we had to go with Molly Hatchet."Larry the Cable Guy
Oof.
What about a Larry the Cable Guy impersonator? Better or worse?
Dish Network Donnie is fantastic

I know a dude that used to play pick-up soccer with Madsen all of the time. I guess he's pretty normalish.
