[patton]

Might say, "blowjobs $3" for all she knows.

"what the heck is the cabbage patch and how can i use it to torture mine?"

Only the best goofy dance move on the planet...besides my "lawn mower" or "hedge clipper" or "weed eater." You have your arms straight out in front of you and you rotate your hands parrallelly around in a circle, but there's a body attitude in there that I can't describe. And I do mine REAL nerdly and weird. Then I have my hands go off-sinc of one another in sort of a DOUBLE Cabbage Patch...and faster. I made that "double" one up myself. Heh heh.

[Argh]

Good woman, Dutch!

[xsmommy]

it is amazing how rock songs, albeit about suggestive topics NEVER sound as bad as rap which lays it all right out there. i have never changed the channel on a rock song for my kids.

[bannie]

Robitussin and Gatoraid

[Dutchgirl]

Oh, I am only one part of the parental unit. Dilbert is even more socially conservative than I am. You say you cringe talking to the teen in the garden shop? Imagine if your paternal unit begins to laugh aloud- nervously- like Pee-Wee Herman!

If Mom is only going to humiliate, but Dad is going to slit his wrists-who do you turn to? Your sister? I return to my previous post of this evening. It is a wonderful thing to be wise in your children's eyes...

[xsmommy]

no, i didn't cringe. i remember being amazed we were talking about all of that stuff but at the same time so thrilled that she felt comfortable enough to ask me about it. they would NEVER ask their father. he would do a dilbert~! i have never reacted in such a way so as to discourage them asking anything. that is why i studiously remain matter of fact and casual, through the blowjob discussion, the masturbation discussion etc. I get xsboy alone in the car on the way to hockey practice and that is my soapbox. He says MOMMY WE HAVE BEEN OVER THIS ALREADY. i said, listen, obviously i am still concerned about it, so we will discuss it til i feel that you have gotten the point!

Eat at Moe's?

(Or "Eat here")?

I understand that Britteny's tattoo (or one of those ex-teen-idol's-of-similar-ilk) has a "Chinese" Peace symbol that spells the wrong message.

[Dutchgirl]

cabbage patch See also: Stirrage--like you are stirringa big pot of something, soap, laundry, nutria stew...

[xsmommy]

i can assure you that st james will not be discussing Saran wrap in their sex talk to 7th grade!!!

[xsmommy]

oh i feel so WITH IT< so HIP!!!

[Dan from Michigan]

Saran wrap Sounds like something out of the Naked Gun/Police Squad movies.

[Miss Behave]

"...(She was rummaging through the fridge at the time and made an irrisistable target.)..."eat at moe's...."

LOL. OMG.

[xsmommy]

OMG that was an hysterical scene with the full body condoms! LOL!

[xsmommy]

[Miss Behave]

"I get xsboy alone in the car on the way to hockey practice and that is my soapbox."

Yep, xs. I did the same to my son on the way to hockey practice...and for a while there, practice was an hour away. Heh heh.

Kids in car = captive audience.

[Dutchgirl]

I don't know which makes more of an impact Naked Gun or Dr. Strangelove (precious bodily fluids and all...)

[xsmommy]

hockey practice is ALWAYS far away! LOL!

[Miss Behave]

LOL, Dutchgirl. Did you see Cabbage Patch #4? Go back and take a peek.

[Miss Behave]

My dad practically wets himself with laughter when I watch Dr. Strangelove with him, and the "precious bodily fluids" talk starts.
