Chances are you will have to find a costume to disguise yourself as a swimming pool to catch his attention first. Then you can work on the courting :)

...yes estarla said "gonna be down on him"

5 points!

#10 applies to oddball movies in my house.

I don't watch sporting events (unless Drum Corps is considered a sport in your world).

My wife watches Baseball but could care less if I watch it with her. "watching" baseball with my wife usually consists of my ass on the couch, and my iPod Touch in hand.

Yeah, I pay like $4 for a haircut... and even if it looks like crap it's an easy fix (shave it).

I've seen women pay $200 for a haircut, hate it... then pay $200 to fix it. It's just hair. :D

My neighbors don't fight but they have like 57 kids and apparently my lawn is their playground. I have to chase them off with a stick!

Mike, alcohol and liquor can be 2 different things.

You've never marinated with beer before? Beer makes an EXCELLENT marinade and it's GREAT with Brats.

is it just me or is talking about beer and marinating while looking at a pink website a little disturbing?

Kids are pretty sharp, they can usually tell you're not going to work out without even really needing to get to know you.

My brother had his fair share of piss poor teachers, but I'd say I lucked out. Most of my worthless teachers didn't show up until college where it seemed more like a power trip than anything else.

I never really had a BAD teacher in Elementary school... now a Principal, THAT's a better story.

In third grade my principal was a LARGE (tall) woman who wore combat boots and EVERYTHING was olive green. Her last name was Sitler (ironically close to someone else of dictatorial stature).

I got in detention for accidentally puncturing my Capri Sun drink too far and she would publicly scold you in the cafeteria if your tray was not organized as she would have liked it. Crazy woman!

I too wonder if people just drink it to make their self esteem hurt less (when they couple it with loads of calories) or if they're ACTUALLY stupid enough to think that it will counter the fat bomb.

leliathomas... I saw that on TV the other day but it was called the Thousand-Year Old egg and he was eating it alongside Stinky Tofu...

He almost threw up.

I wear a green ball cap pretty much everywhere. I feel like I lost something if it's not on my head.

I even wear it here :)

My wife does that ALL the time... "it's the 18th I KNOW there's something IMPORTANT today... what was it."

Birthdays and anniversaries she doesn't seem to forget though.

I didn't either but my dad knew I was good with patterns and things and said "remember that plate number" so I took him literally. ;)

As for the date thing, if you wanted a good buffer zone on your "special" date you could always tell them the date but make it 6 days earlier so you're reminded a week in advance.

Oddly enough, I find numbers REALLY easy to remember, but I SUCK at math. ;)

I remember the license plate number of a silver Suburban that had its lights on in our church parking lot when I was 6. (that was 22 years ago)

I love fried rice, but prefer Japanese food over Chinese food (at least the Chinese we get in most places in the US... BLECH)

Auburn email me and I'll shoot you some stuff on the subject.

An additional thing wrong with America: in a democracy where you can (should) vote

1... America is a Representational Republic (a FORM of Democracy but NOT a true Democracy

2... American Citizens are not guaranteed the right to vote by the constitution. More often than not, you vote is nothing more than a litmus test for a more select group to base their actual votes.

My dad was not good with LITTLE kids... once we got old enough that we knew to point the shotgun at the ANIMALS and not HIM we were good to go.

He was clueless with rug rats. I'm kind of the same way, I find I have very little patience for 3 years old... and I'm much better with them once they hit like 13+.

Anything is worth going to therapy for if you feel it will help you.

It's a per Father issue... some have issues with ANY of their kids growing up, some only have issues with their girls growing up and some don't seem to be bothered by it.

My daughter is six... so I don't have too much first hand experience with mine being all grown up, but my 11 year old sister-in-law let it slip that my little girl had a crush on a little boy in her class. It didn't bother me too much but it did alert me to the fact that "THOSE" days are approaching... time to start cleaning my guns ;)

My wife got the DrPepper ones... the kids LOVE em.

I don't do Soda so I can't say if they're good or not but hey, the kids love em.

The bears I know of come in a gold colored plastic baggy, the cola bottles are AWESOME.

Clarkey... we've got them in Oklahoma. Has some a week ago. YUM

Hard candies are good, I can't eat anything like Bit-O-Honey as I don't want to replace crowns and fillings...

I'd have to say regular Hershey's Kisses disappear rather quickly around me.

If I were to die tragically, I would prefer to not feel a thing... I can leave a mess I just don't want to feel it.

:)

Well, given your examples (build a house) how long before I die is a key factor in my decision. Obviously if I'm taking a celestial dirt nap in 30 min, I'm not going to build a house. :)

If it's a matter of hours/minutes, I would have to say I would call everyone I know and tell them how I felt about them.

If it was a month or two, and this isn't like cancer so you know you're GOING to die 100% I would quit my job, and take my family on a drive all over the country and witness my children exploring the unknown.

Yeah I'm with Scrivs, a world without men would be a world without women too.

I have to add, one thing I simply WILL NOT EAT as it almost made me vomit when I tried it was Uni (Sea Urchin)... which is basically the gonads from a Sea Urchin.

Basically imagine something that looks like it was extracted from a diaper, glistening on your plate. YEAH, it's THAT delicious.

My favorites...

Nigiri - Salmon, Fatty Tuna, Eel, Octopus and Squid.

I'm not a big "roll" fan as they've become too trendy around here where I live and contain ZERO meat. Apparently Sushi is interchangeable with "veggie roll" here in Oklahoma.

I've had good rolled sushi but I just roll my eyes when someone hands me a rolled up avacado/carrot thing and says "try this sushi!"

Yeah I would have to say, seeing my kids play nicely together always seems to do the trick. Mainly because 90% of play time is normally "MOM(DAD)! He/she's hitting me!"

For those of you who aren't directly near a fish market (like us in Oklahoma or North Texas etc.), find a large scale supermarket with a good seafood department. If they have a full time staff to manage the fish you should be good.

The fish monger at my Whole Foods was able to overnight Sushi grade tuna from Japan for a fairly decent price.

i LOVE having a great day... today was not there though.

Since this is a happy thread I won't drag it down. Glad you're having a great day and I hope the rest of your week goes the same!

I live in a suburb of Tulsa Oklahoma... the weather sucks a lot. ;) It can be raining one minute, then you sneeze and it's a white out... scratch your head and it's 100 degrees and sunny.

I was born and raised in San Antonio, TX though... so I know all about hot and dry. :)

An almost empty cold coffee, I just tossed it in favor of a cold bottle of Ozarka. (tastes like Texas tap water- home)
