What You Did Today
We actually attend a couple different family parties. The "immediate family party" is only around 16 people, its the "cousins party" where things get cray cray. In other news, I have been advised that today is the day that I will be schlepping the Christmas tree and boxes of associated accoutrements down from the overhead garage storage and setting it up. "C'mon babe, kid is grown now, do we relly need to do this?"....her reply with with steely eye reserve..."Yes, but you dont have to do the outside lights." A deal was struck that day. I am thinking of buying one of those laser things that shoots colorful moving dots all over the eterior of your house though.

Thank baby jebus but I have my wife conditioned to provide me a xmas list of stuff she wants. I'm really terrible about coming up with spontaneous gifts. Running counter to my usual MO of waiting until the last second, I've actually already procured two of her gifts.

Sorry to hear about Mrs. #2, Guard Dog. Go with your gut.

Hehe, think of it like this. Children are a shiny new SSD just waiting to be imprinted with the data their master provides them. Monkey see, monkey do. They are a direct result of their input. The creation of "participation trophies" isn't helping anything either.

Barring mental issues, evil kids are the direct result of parenting. Imo.

The Flash. S3E7 was awesome and last nights E8 was a nice lead in to the 4-part crossover with Supergirl, Arrow and LoT. Ive never watched Supergirl but the fight scenes alone in Flash are making me reconsider that.- What are you playing right now

Different reasons for different people. Some political, some economical. Most of our immigrants fall into one of those two categories.- Fidel Castro Dead at 90
I mean, we tend to view others through the lens of our existences and we apply our arbitrary standards. Maybe the general Cuban population is happy with their lives? I never hear of any rabble rousing down there. No "cracking down" by the government or stuff like that. They are never going to be a world player, or a powerhouse economy. Maybe things are fine as far as they are concerned?- Fidel Castro Dead at 90
What economy do they have? The population is smaller than that of the state 90 miles North. Maybe their society was good for Cubans?- Fidel Castro Dead at 90
Hasnt Raul been running the show for a few years now anyway? Now all thats left to do is build a statue of Fidel, pointing out to the sea or something, and call it a day.- What you having for dinner tonight?
I stuffed myself like a pig. Turkey, mashed potatos and gravy, stuffing, green bean casserole....but I had to save room for the sweet sweet apple and pumpkin pies with cool wHip.- The US Election, Part XI

Glad youre ok Grom. Road rash is a mofo. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!- The drinking thread
Ive never heard of a feijoa but the interwebs tell me; "The thick, white, granular, watery flesh and the translucent central pulp enclosing the seeds are sweet or subacid, suggesting a combination of pineapple and guava or pineapple and strawberry, often with overtones of winter green or spearmint." Sounds delicious! Can pretty much any fruit be fermented?- What You Did Today
Ive got a nice four day stretch off work. Were going to my mother-in-law's house for turkey day some Im looking forward to some delicious eats. This woman, somehow, someway, has managed to create the only sweet potato pie on the planet that I like but then my wife informed me that its no longer on the menu because "mom" has diabetes. Probably slip in a day or two of garage drinking with my neighbor too.- The US Election, Part XI

No way yo! I keep my trigger level low. You getting my flow?- Chris Avellone hates Obsidian!
Words like "tantrum" and "stupid" belong in other more serious conversation. Because. - What's on the idiot box?
