'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Oh, that's exciting, Gud. How's your wife doing?
She has mixed feelings about it. Our son starts homeschooling now as well, so I think she is relieved to only deal with one at a time. The plan is that he will go to public school next year and I think my wife is looking forward to having gardening time.
I imagine pork from flying pigs would have less white meat....
Wings are dark meat? I've never thought about it.
I've deliberately made myself late by taking two naps this morning. I guess I should get my ass moving.
I hope your daughter has a great first day, Gud.

Well, that all sounds exciting!

Dark meat is dark because it has a lot of extra blood vessels. Birds that fly need the extra blood vessels because of the high oxygen usage of muscles involved in flight.
Chickens can typically fly a short distance, but then their flying muscles can't maintain the exertion due to inadequate amount of oxygen supplied by their "white meat."
Good luck to Gud's little angel!
Of course, Illinois also has treats like Cairo (KAY-ro) and DeZ Plainz to trip up the unwary. Or edumacated.
Don't forget Marseilles (not mar-SAY, but mar-SAILS).
Cairo is always the best way to spot a non-local.
Good luck, Gud! I know how scary and exciting that is. Owen's supposed to start preschool next week.
I can't decide whether to be deliriously happy or to start making book on how long before we have to pull him out.
My lunch is a steak sandwich, should be tasty.
Oh, so much tastier than PB&J.
I'm having a bowl of Kashi GoLean for breakfast. It tastes a bit like cardboard. I think I'll stick to the crunch next time.
I hope Owen has a great time at preschool. Is he excited about it?
I sometimes refuse to pronounce things the way the locals do, which is why you probably will never hear me refer to a creek as a 'crick' even in backwoods Michigan.
Way to stick it to the man with the linguistic disobedience.
