Nah, she got done before 4 and that was too early for Happy Hour, so we went to the Drafthouse and saw the Clooney film The Descendants (4.27/5 stars), the went to Matt's for shrimp flautas and margaritas. Date over by 8:30, I stopped at Central Market and picked up a bottle of '08 Faust cabernet (review forthcoming) and a box of truffles. Now we are sitting on the couch and she's watching Jeopardy re-runs while I catch up on GMTAN. Do I know how to party or what?
I thought this was going to be Paula Creamer, Gulbis, and a bunch of Nancy Lopez lookalikes. Holy #### Maria Verchenova is hot.
Clearly you've learned the secret to a successful marriage.I'm out of the happy hour scene until after little bentley #2 sleeps through the night. Angrywife is usually hanging on by a thread by the time the end of the day comes around.

Today is my brother's 41st birthday. Nice of you to recognize him.
Brandon Inge shows up everyday as well.My boys received their report cards on Monday and while I was pleased with many things on there (and displeased with a few - seems both have inherited my lousy handwriting skills) I was incredibly proud of both of them for going 52/52 on attendance.Don't listen to these guys. You are doing the lord's work here. I can't even tell you how many kids I have absent because of things besides actual illness.Before the end of the day to day I have to turn in 3 independent study packets for kids that won't be here the 1 or 2 weeks before Xmas. Why? Their parents all want take a long Xmas vacation. And those are just the ones that have notified us already. I'm sure I will have 6 or 7 more before Dec 19.Every day I have at least 4 kids called out of my class because they are leaving for something...dentist, Dr. etc. I know how hard it is to make appointments after school hours but I think a lot of people just don't think about it.This is like a pimple on a whale's butt on what we have to worry about, but it just happened, so I thought i'd bring it up in my thread about nothing....and everything.So this is what parents worry about?ex-wife just emailed saying our oldest has his 9-year check-up apt at 8am in January. She asked if it was okay if she took him out of school for the whole day for this. I said 'no'. Does this make me the meanest dad in the world? I just don't like the idea of missing a full day of school for a check-up. Horrible message to send, IMO. Plus, the kid has perfect attendance.That said, I took them out of school in 2010 for a day to make it to my wedding in Michigan, so I'm a giant hypocrite, right?

Whoa wait, dp = flysack?
He went all Inuit Gangsta with the flysack ID and got it whacked. Something about clubbin' seals and #####es if my notebook is correct.
You're preaching to the choir, brother.
My grandparents were slopes.:e:
Well, not really. But they could've been and I'd be really offended.
Happy Anniversary D!

It's also hulk baby's second! Here's hoping he gets a taste of Larry Legend's shooting touch.

GB the comments section."I used to cast lightning bolt, but then I took an arrow to the knee."
Completely different situations. The bathos of the well-timed comment from the above comedian was made ironically in a trusted environment among trusted friends. Dropping the "n" word (-a only slightly better than -er) as a professor amongst students who don't know you or your motives is neither ironic nor trusted. The lesson on co-opting divisive terms is a good one, but I'm not sure I support your methods of getting there.Plus, white guys saying the -a word sound like dooshnozzles. It is unavoidable. I think our palates are malformed in such a way as to ever prevent this from sounding cool.I drop it at least once a semester in my classes.

We were all seated waiting for a couple more guys and just shooting the #### in his basement.All of a sudden a buddy of ours comes bounding down the stairs, and yells out " Wassssupp my ni..as?"So you think if I just casually strolled down a street in Harlem and used this word over and over at the top of my voice, I'd get nothing but smiles and head nods???I dunno man...I'm so afraid of this word that I got really nervous playing the Marshawn Lynch youtube clip to myself with headphones on.
Yea, what he didn't know was one of my brothers coworkers was black and sitting at one of the tables.
indrop:
After my brothers friend got up and rattled something off like "sheeeeeeeet my brutha, hangin' like a mofo" Something to that effect, don't know because we first were all in shock, then laughing uncontrollably.
But the look on his face when he first saw the black dude, was priceless...then
Then I springboard this into a discussion about the organic nature of language and the idea of coopting derisive terms.
Like I said, it all depends on context.
There's an episode of Louie that demonstrates this brilliantly. All the comics are sitting around a poker table playing cards. They start asking the gay guy about being gay. This leads to a discussion on comics using the word "faggot" on stage. The gay guy goes over how historically mean-spirited this word has been to gay people - it's been shouted at them while they were getting beat up, etc. But the gay guy insists, "use it though, get your laughs," but just know how terrible it's been. Everyone gets real quiet. Then one comic says, "yea we'll keep that in mind, faggot."
Everyone =
It's all about context.
I would be surprised if you weren't covered for this. I'm no expert though.
Yeah, did a quick search and it looks like this is generally covered. My wife's calling the agent this morning.
Have to agree with this. Although I will say it when listening and "rapping" along with rap songs in my truck. Yeah, I'm a dork.Completely different situations.

She told me that she has me listed as "Mike Wazowski" in her contacts in her phone because "Monsters INC" is one of her favorite movies and for some reason I remind her of him. I told her that I have her listed as "Midlife Crisis" in my contacts.I took matters into my own hands here and did a little facebook stalking. If she is who I think she is, holy whoa!Have we received pics of the hot young 22 year old co-worker that Zooks is porking yet? I'm still living in a medicine fog and can't remember very much.I would tell all sorts of lies to just get a waft of one of her farts. Go ZOOKS!
Wait, so the repair shop wrecked your buddy's truck and the BMW?Why would insurance matter?
MN has a ton of drivers without insurance.
I still agree with Aaron's statement.Didn't we have a thread a while back about a guy that didn't have insurance and lost tens of thousands of dollars?MN has a ton of drivers without insurance.
Oh...I know this...An uninsured idiot.
