Seconded!

This sounds like a good read. Did you get her reaction posted on YouTube like the "junk" guy?

Not familiar with the junk guy but I already had my shoes on when she came over quite irritated.

Back when the scanners first appeared, it was one of those that went viral because the guy refused the scanners and told them not to touch his junk. My MIL's 60 year old friend, who is as tall as she is round, went on a flight a year ago and had to have a special screening. When she asked why, she was told her ticket had been randomly selected to do so. They made my 78 year old dad take his shoes off to get on plane.

I don't have a problem with screening, but common sense needs to prevail at some point.

The other team's players and their parents were groaning about having to play against "that kid". I finally realized they were talking about my dd.

Big congrats to both DDs...very impressive.

When I played BB in high school, parents and kids from the other team were all excited when I played, "Wooo-Hoo! We get to play against that kid!"

Hope I don;t have those issues when we are driving down...

But then again, my 14month old had to take her shoes off...
I'd be more worried about the "load" concealed in her diaper.

I want to set a positive example, but me having a heart attack with all of them here may not be that good an example. So, I've already started drinking. Feel free to ship me some more Crown as the fifth I have won't last much longer.

That's great, Norm. I'm glad they're doing so well and have their own individual strengths.

All sound good. Never had the Glenrothes scotch. I like the Maker's 46.

Thanks. I was really proud of them today. First time I didn't coach them, so I enjoyed watching them figure it out. Well, I still coached from the stands, just not from the bench.

The Pirate Princess enjoyed all of the birthday wishes. She wanted me to say thank you.

DW's had lots of practice thanks...got it down pat.

That sucks. I keep going from feeling better to sick again. Hope she kicks it soon.

Put in Wii Dance Party 4. So, they are all dancing off all the pizza, drinks, and cupcakes. At least the stopped giggling and they some good songs on here for me to listen to. When they get worn out, I'll kick their butts in Monopoly or the Disney trivia game if they'll play it with me.
