I think I may have sprained, or broken a rib while playing outside with my nephew earlier.  I lost my footing while on a snowbank and landed hard on my side.  He thought it was part of the act and started chucking snow at me while i flailed away on the ground trying to catch my breath.  :P. I sneezed a few minutes ago and it hurt llke a broken rib for sure!

 :-\  Not good.  Hope you're feeling better today.

That car has a classic look.  What's that 4.0 v8 from?  Was that JDM?  Maybe from a Jaguar  :P

Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Is it wrong to call him an idiot, just because he is?

No. In fact, it would be very right to call an idiot an idiot.

Apparently my comments made him sad.   I've been asked to limit my comments to facts and avoid "ad hominem" attacks.

He posted this:


I posted a comment about how 47% of the deaths from measles are in India, then added that I guess Gandhi was wrong.   Also that Gandhi didn't believe in any medicines so if you believe him you should probably stop seeing all doctors for anything.

He sounds like a treat....is he a close relative?? Like can you meet up with him and smack him across his mouth??


Never met him, just a distant relative who has the same relatively rare family name.    I just can't help calling BS for what it is.

As well you should....ignorance shouldn't be allowed to flourish.

He posted another anti-vaxxer report of a vaccine causing autism:  http://www.naturalnews.com/048888_vaccine_adverse_events_autism_INFANRIX_Hexa.html

A quick google search debunked that one: http://www.repubblica.it/salute/medicina/2015/03/01/news/autismo_i_giudici_assolvono_il_vaccino-108441541/

I wonder how he'll respond to that comment?

Hey! Congrats!

It can be rough.  Just know that it gets easier with time.  Until they hit their teens, so I've been told  ;D

Congrats, I am sure many of us her sympathize.  At times, there are nights you think things couldn't get worse.  Then I think of my buddy who has twins (2 girls), an older sister by 2 years, and another older sister by 4 years.  Poor guy had to sell the Subaru for a van! 

And it does getter.  I am constantly looking forward to the next stage.  One of the best is when they are in there own room and can sleep the whole night.  First child this was at 6 months, second child was 8 months.  And eating baby food is good one too, gives you a chance to help out more, and less diaper changing... ;D  Enjoy!

Ha! Wait 'till you have two. You'll realize one was a piece of cake!

Congrats

Exactly!  I blame my wife for wanting two!  ;D   I just pulled out the gates out a couple of weeks ago from the garage.  10 month old really likes the stairs!  Planning on a new bike for my 3 1/2 year this spring (when we get a spring)...
