From GTO's apocalypse movie thread. Tell me this doesn't sound like our boy Pants once his doggie get to the island.

A boy and his dog is probably the dumbest/ most awesome movie that I have ever watched. Don Johnson talking to his psychic dog and hunting for women to have sex with.... doesn't get much more awesome then that....
 
Third: Wxman: If you decide to go the graduation route, just don't PM birdy to see if she wants to meet up, you'll get the 'umm, jeez, sorry....superbusy kthxbye' brushoff right quick.

:rolleyes::pwink:

It would be like high school all over again...
 
Those who hate country music, ignore this post.

I'm really enjoying Terri Clark's new song. Still has that strong, confident alto voice. Wonder where she's been the past 10-15 years?
 
We are interviewing an Iowa grad today.

First thing when he comes into the interview.

Write down the scores of the football game and the basketball game on a piece of paper.

20-17
90-75

Tell him it is a test of his cognitive abilities.

Ask him, "What do these numbers represent to you?"

If/when he gets it wrong say, "Well, that's all we needed from you today. We'll let you know."
 
I thought about just saying, "Nice to meet you little brother"


Also do you visit Hawkeye Nation? If yes just scream GET OUT WITH YOUR DISEASES
 
Honestly, if I ever got to the point where I wanted a serious relationship, is probably try online dating. I've got no problem getting hookups and casual stuff, but at this age, I'm somewhat clueless as to where one goes for a serious girl.

You have to really be ready to commit to someone. It will probably take a good amount of effort for you not to just hit it and quit it.

I've always been a commitment guy. I had a couple friends with benefits in college, but I usually preferred having a girlfriend. I got married right after college.

It has to be something you really want. If not, it wont work.
 
Tailgate tour makes me sad every year.

When it started we had a Twin Cities stop. The first year it was at Canterbury and we planned to go, but when the storms rolled in and the meteorologists were on the radio and TV telling everyone not to travel unless absolutely necessary we decided not to take the wee ones out in it. The next year it was at Nicollet Island and it was about 40 degrees overcast and damp. We went but there wasn't a great turnout.

I can't imagine why they had crappy attendance annually for that stop and decided to drop it from the tour.

We went to the Mason City stop one year, but it is always a weekday and it is a bit much to drive the kids down and back on a school night for it.

00--you can use your Internet sleuthing skills (or employ CG) and find my address. There will probably be plenty of birthday cake on Sat if you "happen" to be driving by around 1 or so on Sat.


random internet guy crashes a teen or younger birthday party...yeah, I'm not THAT creepy.

:eek::no:

Speaking of which, so you have a daughter with a birthday like a week from yours? That's pretty cool. Ours are all pretty spread out. Closest is my oldest is 3 weeks from mine.

I have a friend who had her oldest on her own birthday - heck of a birthday present.
 
And the thought of crashing a teen girl's birthday party and the trauma that would cause reminded me.

So, I'm 38, and my kids are 2 and 4, I don't know anything about teen girls anymore, but our friend has a 8th grader. She's gonna have some daddy issues (already does), but that's another story. Well, on halloween, everyone went trick or treating in our neighborhood, and the plan was to meet up at another friend's house for pizza. So I'm walking in front of their house, and I see the 8th grader. Wasn't going to say anything, since I didn't know if she would recognize me, usually it's just the mom that we see. Well after look, doubletake, tripletake, I realize yeah, she does recognize me, so I just say "Hi". OMG, the trauma I caused...she like whipped her head around the other way, and put her hand up to her face. At first, I was like "what?!??!?!!", then "hahahahaaa, teen girl drama...." Told the mom the story and she busted a gut.
 
My ex was 3 years & 2 days older than me. We always celebrated our birthdays together, on the 20th. After the divorce, I found out that neither of our sons knew what our birthdays were...they knew they were the 19th & 21st, but didn't know which was which. :)
 
I just saw a story that American Idol was cancelling. I didn't realize it was still on. I've never watched an episode.

My wife and daughter got into a rough argument last night that trailed into this morning. I tried to interject and mediate, but got hit with a **** storm instead. I'm learning that my daughter has a weird blend of my wife's feisty-ness and my calm disconnectedness. Trying to figure out which one is gonna show up during a confrontation is turning out to be a treat.

When she hits puberty, I'm probably moving out of the country until she graduates.
 
My grandma had my mom on her birthday.

In a related note we get to deal with the whole "You can't use christmas paper for my birthday" stuff.

MAKE SURE you don't give combo gifts, and if grandparents, aunts/uncles, etc are gift givers at both Christmas and birthdays, impress them on that as well. Voice of experience here...my older son was born on the 27th of December.
