    Stay at home dad advice

    Hopefully this update is timely. My youngest grandson is 26 months, his parents live with us and have since he was born. There's too much explaining but basically as they are getting on their feet and working full time I'm the primary caregiver for significant portions of time. My usual...

    Time Travel: What would you do?

    Now I'm going from memory and not bothering to look it up but if memory serves... We almost sided with Germany in WW1, there was a big push for it led by Lindberg's father and the rather large German communities here. At first he just wanted us to stay out of it, he was a senator at the time...

    Time Travel: What would you do?

    Depending on the rules. With long life, equipment and regeneration I'd go back 2 millon years and just have fun. Usual rules, convince our leaders to back Germany in WW1 avoiding the mess with the other timeline. Boring rules, age regression and keep knowledge go back to when I was 5 and...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I've got the opposite problem here. I have a 4 way stop down the street from me and everyone is go damn passive it drives me nuts. The usual scenario is me driving up with 3 others cars already stopped and everyone is trying to wave the others through ahead of them. I usually just decide to...

    You're lucky. My wife would have insisted we stop and help since we've got skills and fucked up shit doesn't bother us. She's got a knack for being in the wrong place when medical emergencies go down.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    First, if we find out that there are beings higher on the food chain than us it'll go over with a big sigh, as it should because it's boring. About the only thing that we will have learned of importance is that we need to work much harder.

    Such an underrated movie, maybe not underrated but underwatched.

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    It's pretty simple really. Most adults simply don't have the time to skill/level up a character like they did when they are younger. It's just like sports. I can work hard enough to compete with younger athletes, not anyone actually really good, but I know the time investment required and it...

    Damn, that's insane to me. Where do you even start with this shit. What would that kid be doing outside unsupervised? I happen to have a small phobia, not of snakes mind you, but when something happened that made me choose between protecting my kids and my phobia the kid wins without...

    I'm having trouble finding a particular book and since it's for my 2yo grandson who is showing interest in reading I thought maybe someone here might have a clue how to find it. I've checked the usual sources. It's a basic reading book that me and all of my siblings used to learn to read and...

    I'm not going to lie, when I saw those movies in a theater with my buddies as a kid I thought it was the funniest stuff ever. I still get a kick out of it. Too bad they have never been remastered.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    That sounds like a fantastic idea except we know how it'll go. Lazar will make a claim about something, Weinstein will rebut and Lazar will just say he's not an expert on all aspects so he doesn't know those details. I'd rather have him get another well known physicist on with Weinstein to...
