Probably I know FTjr was bored during our meal, though he was happy that I had stuff for him. I don't know if the tradeoff was worth it for him. Granted that he needed to eat...

Definitely true. At least with me, it would give her someone new to roll her eyes at.

was planning to go to the pow wow for a little while, but since it is now inside, will probably skip it.

went to it a few years ago when rain moved it into the hockey arena (which is much bigger than the space they have moved it to) and it was not fun in the hockey arena.

They really need a security guard for this?

Who is going to walk off with a jersey of some random DIII jock nobody has ever heard of.

I dunno, FT tells me Glen is pretty good with a Billy club in his hands.

I'm not going to rob my family of getting away from work/school and make them sit at home bored all year. The better solution, as I complained a few days ago to my wife, would be for her to stop wasting money on the oldest SD and paying for so much for the youngest SD.

I called my old boss on the way home to try and figure out how to defuse tomorrow's argument.

I had already moved him back down with us today because that's what the Government Lead stated needed to be done immediately.

My old boss's suggestion was to inform the Government TTM of what she said and have him write another e-mail (since she never replied to his) and ask if he'd been moved back yet as asked. Then she won't be able to say keep him up there.

Either way, it'll be my fault instead of her bad decisions.

All protestors need to do is bring boxes of cookies for glen and he'll fold instantly and let them anywhere on campus.

So you are allowed to spend money to bring your son to Florida and videotronic gadgets but she can’t spend money on her daughter.

Got it.

Those prices are ridiculous.

Also, the Detroit Tigers called and would like their Olde English "D" back!
