Little Melvin can't be exposed to peanuts (2 Viewers)

[Foosball God]

e-mom, you need a better imagination.

foos, I think your imagination is, ummmm, quite good enough.

My imagination could not be any better, I'm just holding back, you know that

That scares you?? <note to self: don't scare PDG>

Just a note: I can now see the little guy peeking out from behind the couch. For some reason that smiley wasn't working for me for awhile. I know you were all dying to find out so I thought I would let you know so you can all breath a sigh of relief.

That's so odd. I never had a problem with the guy behind the couch.

What about the little man in the canoe?

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that he sank?

That's too bad. I would have found him for you.

I'm very giving.

 

[Dragons]

Hey foos, move your hairy ### out of the way. You're blocking my view.

Scoot over Dragons. Now, am I the only one who can't see who's here at the bottom of the thread? :(

ooh, company. I thought I might be the only one. We should find out. Do you want to start the thread, or shall I?

I'll share my popcorn if you bring sodas.

What can I bring?

Considering we were watching you, Foos and Anna Marie, I'm not sure how to answer that. Dragons, a little help here please.

I think they had the party without me...besides I like watching Foos.Hey, Dragon, do you have anymore cookies left? If so, bring them.

Cookies. Check.Plastic sheet for Foos couch. :X Check.

3 rolls of saran wrap. Check.

Sounds like it could get messy better saran wrap everything.

Good idea.

Hi mom,No idea if you're real or not and honestly don't care. But please don't incite the boys. They can't handle much. Seriously.

I'm not sure if this is more about your desire to toy with them or their inability to keep from stepping on themselves but please, let's stop it. Thanks.

Further, stop looking at my crotch. TIA.

It wasn't for lack of effort. I thought that mentioning "Munchausen" would do the trick.

Hi mom,Thank you for sharing your silly banter with us. It's been wonderful that women are finally able to feel that they can join our little group.

We have a strange way of welcoming people but don't mind us, we are men after all. We have no clue as to what we are doing and we can't handle much. Seriously.

TIA

On the forum page, click on the "3723" link (# of posts) and it'll pop open a new window.

Thanks Dragons. I actually just figured it out. (And tdoss - you missed it. )I don't usually like to ask how to do stuff on a board, but last time I just clicked on buttons I almost reported e-mom. For saying hi. Which leads me to another question...when in a post it says the word reported with colons on either side, does that mean it was reported, or just an inside joke that I may not get?

'mornin Just about time for another coffee.Foos, were they sick, or more of a *I'm awake so your are too* kind of thing.My seven year old is fed up with his nephew that has basically moved in with us. Last night I had to use the ultimate threat. *If I hear one sound after the lights go out you get absolutely no tv or videa games for two days*. That works like a charm with him.

Don't know what it was. They have the sniffles, but nothing major. Mrs. Foos has made it a habit to get up and pop my 15 month old daughter's plug back in when she cries at night. I've been trying to get on her to let her cry it out so that Mrs. Foos isn't getting up 3 times a night. My 2 3/4 year old probably just woke up when he heard his sister crying and wanted some attention.

 

[MC Gusto]

Mornin' A-M - I'm sure you know that threat works for all guys no matter the age.

Probably cuz I was giving him the evil eye so that he'd be a good boy and not get a time out. When he gets a TO, I can't log on here from home.Besides, you know he prefers to hang out in the political threads anyway.

Yeah, he's funny that way. He actually has a great sense of humor except that it's a weird sense of humor and not everyone gets it. He really can be quite funny.

did we ever determine if the kid's actual name was Melvin?

 

[MC Gusto]

did we ever determine if the kid's actual name was Melvin?

Apparently it is....striaght from DW himself...Then we moved on to the most remarkable part of the evening, at least in my mind. The director gets up, trundles up to the podium while the baby Elephant Walk song plays in my head, she opens her maw and tells us they have a new student. His name is Melvin. (now normally I would have something to say about parents naming their kid Melvin but with my wife having already used the stare I don't want to push it.) It seems Melvin has peanut allergies. Not just regular peanut allergies, but abnormally sensitive ones. This means, she says, that in addition to not being allowed to bring peanuts, peanut butter, or anything containing peanuts into the school, like say a snickers bar, (every one knows those are packed full of peanuts), we will have to check every product we use on our child for peanut based ingredients. Seems some sunscreens contain the stuff, some popcorns are popped with peanut oil, yada, yada, yada.
