Yeah, at least one of my brothers would have starved too - acid reflux and esophogitus. And the cram 'em into this perfect mold philosophy was the opposite of everything my parents wanted. I mean, they homeschooled us to prevent us getting shoved into the government's mold, why apply someone else's just because they claim it's Christian?

Well, I don't have any kids (as far as I know...) but my surrogate parenting of some girlfriends' kids has sure taught me that every kid is different. From the start.

Some of them were just great to be around, and some of them were difficult, and I sure couldn't point to anything other than innate personality-- it sure didn't seem to be much that the mom or me could change.

Except for that one kid. But he was possessed by the Devil, so he had a tougher time of it, naturally. I don't know what happened to him now, but he got me thinking about loading some silver bullets.

When they say to put your breastfeeding infant on a schedule - well, that's just not right.

What a stoopid idea! That's the beauty of breastfeeding; it's always available, and always the perfect temp whenever the baby is hungry! I enjoyed it because I could just sit down and relax! Trying to put the baby on a schedule only tires everyone out and could seriesly screw up your milk production!

properly assembled kid units

Actually, one of them appears to be falling apart.

I understand that some sort of self-initiating upgrade protocol is operating.

Good Morning!

"Burnett" pronounced "Burn-it" (durnit!) and "Buda" pronounced "Byooda"

:)

Memories...

Man Shack...

Usta listen to an Austin morning radio show that did fun April Fool's Day stunts...like "the space shuttle is in trouble and will land at Austin airport" or "the station's format has been changed to 'all disco, all the time'" and then spent the rest of the show playing disco, commercials, news'n'weather, and more disco.

That's me.

In fact I've ripped the soundtrack and cleaned it up, and as soon as some other priorities get cleared up (like when my cousin, who owns the equipment, finishes recording the entire TCM library) I plan to put the video with improved sound onto DVD. THat's way off in the future, tho...I have some 12-year-old home video camera tapes and the original original Star Wars Trilogy ahead in the queue.

I can make you a VHS copy with original sound right away. Don't bother sending/paying for tape...I have surplus. Just freepmail your postal, and I'll get it done when I get it done :)

Just vaguely! We should, though!

Likely we'd be through in time for breakfast on the sixth...if my calculations are correct. And if we push it a bit on the fifth, we might even be staying not too far away.

What do you think?
