Did everyone have a nice July 4th/5th?

Yes. I'd had a moving experience that I'd like to share. For the holiday weekend I had custody of my two young sons. In order to strip away the glitzy commercialism of the holiday (they have their mother to provide mindnumbing b.s.) we spent some time learning about what the day really means. We read the Declaration of Independence and parts of the Federalist Papers and then on the afternoon of the 4th we took part in a Support the Troops and the President rally at a local park. To make the civics lesson complete a particularly ungroomed anti-homeland defense ranter confronted my 9 year old son by shouting obscenities and calling him a murderous imperialist dog in the making. Apparently, having absorbed some of the lessons of the day and others from watching the news, my son, without prompting from me, cooly responded, "President Thomas Jefferson once said that timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty. We are here to celebrate liberty and you're type is not wanted, why don't you go to France!" Out of the mouths of babes! He got three scoops at Friendlys for that one. With jimmies.

I learned yesterday that Alexander Hamilton's mother was French, and that he spoke French fluently -- in fact, his French grammar was better that that of the Marquis de Lafayette, with whom he regularly corresponded. And yet Hamilton was a backer of a strong executive branch.

Otherwise, I had a fun weekend. Here in SF, we continued the tradition of lobbing explosives into the clouds to make the clouds glow.

Mom is handling spelling and grammar, right?

I'm not sure I get your point, but certainly given that Hamilton grew up on backwater colonial islands and was wholly orphaned at the age of 13, his story is illustrative of the great American spirit whereby the downtrodden and disadvantaged average people like any of us who believe in ideals and principles ferverently can overcome any challenges and hurdles, like a french mother, to succeed.

Assuming you mean that she leaves them with the nanny, whom her current husband pays for, who sticks them in front of the 50" plasma tv, which her current husband paid for, and puts the cable dial to Nickolodeon while "mom" goes to the country club her current husband is a member of and gets licquored up with the ladies who like to lunch, then yes, you are correct she is handling those items. Thanks for the insite jagoff!

Honeymooning Virginian finds Cleveland Steamer in his Nevada hotel room.

Client: "It's not funny at all. My lawyers know it's not funny."

Lawyer: "These psychological damages, which naturally flow from such a 'fecetious' mishap, are increasing 'excrementally.' "

The Center Of The Universe. Gotham City. The Big Apple. Metropolis. Enn Why Cee. New York, New York.

More specifically, dtb was referring to the apparently Wal-Mart free Island of Manhattan, purchased from The Indigenous Peoples by Peter Somebody for $24 worth of beads. Mahattan is one of the five (there's a Latin phrase that I should put in here, something about first among equals or something, but I'm too lazy to google for it) boroughs that make up the City of New York.

You're welcome, cupcake.

I'm not sure I get your point, but certainly given that your kids are growing up in a crap environment, your story is illustrative of the great American spirit whereby the downtrodden and disadvantaged average people like your spawn, who believe in ideals and principles, ferverently can overcome any challenges and hurdles, like your poor taste in women, to succeed.

The only thing that post outed is that Penske forgot that he had logged out of his mongoose767 sock and logged into his Spartan sock, and posted a mongoose767 response to TM as the Spartan.
