    People coming to watch football tomorrow. What should I make? I'm thinking about pulled pork, or maybe ribs. That, with home made rolls, slow-cooked beans, and other finger foods. Oh, and a fruit salad for the healthy. Thoughts?

    In the city in which I live there is a clinic downtown where anyone can take their kids for vaccinations. The cost is 8$ per visit, and they know exactly what vaccinations need to happen and at what age and so forth. Most cities larger than about 50,000 people will probably have a clinic of...

    Most screwed up thing your parent/bro/sis/gf/bf has told you?

    Now she's going to want to hook up with you. A clever plan. You just need to actually shit yourself to pull it off.

    Any one want a set of 12 year old twin girls? Mine are developing somewhat of an attitude. It's like they're nearly teenagers.

    Man, I'm glad I'm not the only one. Someone showed me the picture I posted above, thinking it looked like the greatest meal ever. I thought It looked like crap. And beer can make some pretty good bread.

    Most screwed up thing your parent/bro/sis/gf/bf has told you?

    Here's the bad/good story for you. My dad used to beat the hell out of us. He was a complete fucking bastard. Worst father ever. He told me I'm too stupid to go to college. I was the fourth child, he told me he wished they had 3 kids. It culminated in an exchange when I was 14, big...

    Not to be contrary, but this is exactly wrong. Disposable diapers wick the fluid away from skin much more quickly, and lock it away. We used cloth, and if our children developed a rash, we'd use disposable diapers for a couple of days, and it went away. Also, I've never been peed or pooped...

    Buying a Hot Tub?

    Check out Softub. They're bloody amazing. They need no special wiring, can be plugged into a standard outlet, and add very little to your electricity bill monthly. They're the best thing out there. You can relocate it simply, only takes a day to fully heat up, and blah blah blah. Just check...

    Try white pepper? And cook rice dishes. I was once cooking for someone who had an ulcer, and every time it was a rice dish, almost regardless what else was served, it went down right. Not sure if that's a thing, but it worked for us.

    I find Velveeta just gross. Sorry if that offends you. It has a terrible texture, a terrible colour, and I simply don't like the taste. I don't understand why anyone would substitute that for a real cheese in any instance.

    We used cloth diapers, and they had a bag that was smell proof for the loaded diapers. Some folk get these bags for disposable diapers, too. The bags are cheap, and easy to wash. I have friends that put a garbage bag inside an empty cat litter bucket that closes tight as tupperware. No...

    Something we've certainly thought about, but the issue is that he's so small. He's the smallest in his class by a lot. Putting him ahead a year would make him the smallest by a stinking pantload. That's certainly not the end of the world, but I think we're going to see how things go through...

    Girlfriend wants to move in, how much should she pay?

    Pretty sure that's a spam thing. Certainly reads similarly to a few emails I've had. Neg internets for that crap, I'd say.

    Sigh. My son's school has a behaviour chart - it's a pretty good system, I think. Everyone starts the day on green, if they misbehave, they move down, but if they make good decisions they can move up again. He hasn't remained on green or higher for more than a week. He's not being a bad boy...
