I'm glad the guilt is gone, but how did the procedure go?

For entertainment: Get fake Tiger Woods sexts! [link] (Note: some of them are really dirty.)

Cashmere - glad it got there.

Chikat - well the cards were bought afterschool, but he yet again fooled a babysitter (a different one) by making a trip to his bedroom and dumping out his piggy bank and saying that is where he got the $. The crappy music thing is really just a radio with a few other features, he got that at the school bookfair thingy going on this week, he says someone bought it for him, which may be true, who knows anymore with him. Since I've now looked at it, I don't really care, it will break or run out of batteries soon.

The day is still so lovely here, I am really ready for this weather.

I do have some sympathy for the fooled babysitters, since I was totally snowed by a kid I was babysitting for one time, and ended up getting yelled at by his friend's mother when they took off on their bikes to go to a store the were Not Allowed to go to.

On the plus side, that kid is now an elected official!

Our weather is lovely again today. I would like to be hanging out there, but despite my intention to take the laptop out on the deck, all my work today seems to involve actual paper. Like hundreds of receipts. Which is probably not a good idea outside, what with the wind and all.

So, database people. How do you handle post-titles? Like Junior, or III? Especially if you have a first name field that stupidly has to contain two people's names. Like Sam & Jennifer. Except that Sam is a II and obviously, Jennifer is not.

Also do only guys have stuff like that? Do we just never name girls entirely after their mothers?

I get annoyed at my superbly heteronormative database on a regular basis. But it doesn't even do particularly well with married relationships. Let alone women with their own last name. Let alone gay couples.

Yeah, I wasn't mad at the babysitter over that, I just warned her that he is lying a lot right now, so not to worry about calling me to check on things. Also, he is not to buy anything for a while.

Reminds me, I need to change my ATM PIN because he knows that and that could be momumentally bad.

How do you handle post-titles?

title, given name, initials, surname, generation.

On the plus side, that kid is now an elected official!

Plus side, in that you're proud to have provided an early chance for him to practice his rhetorical skills? Or more like you weren't the only one to get suckered?

I know I've seen women referred to as "Jr." but am not sure if it's a formal part of their name. Carolina Hererra comes to mind, for some random reason.

Heh. Plus side in that he's now a respected member of society, and lying to me wasn't the start of a life of crime.

That is AWESOME Jessica. I just reviewed children's science books for Cocktail Party Physics. No one cared. Boo.
