Gus, now you're reminding me of my father, who thinks he looks he looks like LL Cool J in his new hat.

I had somehow misplaced the info that Dominic was born right here on the board. Hell, I was here. I probably said something inappropriate during the delivery.

Anyway. Take that cell-phone away from the baby! It will rot his brain.

Do the Tellytubbie's use cell phones?

No! ... and look at how damaged they are! Add cell-phone damage, and they could be all be running for office in 30 years.

Cruel. Jesse is just being cruel.

If you live in an apartment building, at what point in the evening is it no longer OK to crank your stereo?

I usually turn mine down at 9:00, and down a lot more at 10:00....

Hee. 2 years ago, yup. The early first grandchild. I found it very amusing to listen to my SIL shop for 3rd Xmas ornaments for her 2 year old "Yeah, he was born Christmas eve..."

And no, you didn't say anything inappropriate (I'm sure that vexes you-heh) because I don't think I posted till after the fact. I should go look.

And he's rotting his brain already, and my brother can probably tell you how (he's in neuroscience grad school.) Go look up the wiggles. Be earwormed. It's almost worse than Barney or Teletubbies.

I tease because I love!

Check in the bathroom to see if there's a GFI breaker built into one of the outlets. It's an additional safety measure in the circuit besides the normal breaker, and it may have tripped.

That's definitely a good idea, Sophia. We have one of those that used to confuse the hell out of us, especially since it's in a downstairs bathroom but affected upstairs rooms.

Go look up the Wiggles...

Not going to to do it. I watched an epsiode of Tellytubbies once. It nearly gave me cataracts. No way are my ears getting exposed to anything marketed to tottlers.

tommyrot: Turn your copy of "It's A Wonderful World" up to eleven, and blow them out of the building.

Turn your copy of "It's A Wonderful World" up to eleven,

Don't have that one. Maybe I'll create a playlist of "It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)," "Masochism World," "The World's A Mess, It's In My Kiss" and "The Man Who Sold the World."

That would work.

Go, tommyrot, with the audio vengence.

On the better hand, the lovely lass who shows up knocking at your door, because she dug the music, and wants to join your party...

Gravy.
