We had supper last night with my nephew and his wife. They have a couple young children, one of whom is a two-year-old boy who adores his mother. My nephew has taken to calling him Buster (as in Arrested Development). Whether shoulder rubs are in the cards remains to be seen.
Is he a monster?
Nephew's son still has both hands, so, for the time being, no.
Well, be vigilant around loose seals.

I agree that anyone under 45 who goes of his own free will to a Metallica concert should by all rights be labelled as "doofy" for the whole country to mock.

What's this about a lost car? :shifty:

So, Black Mirror, "Arkangel" …

Unsubtle, but the plausibility factor (accepting the technology's existence) made it quite unsettling. And glad I don't have kids and, hence, the temptation.

Maybe she was trying to lay an egg and that kid was just crawling by thinking "hey free eggs".

Look...everybody knows gators hatch as virile men when the clutch of eggs is incubated at greater than 86 degrees, and as Barbie-eating women at less than 86 degrees. If she wanted a black girl instead she'd be doing handstands for 9 months. :naughty:
