'War Stories'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Figure if you can't experiment on your own kids, who can you?
That was B.F. Skinner's opinion. His wife accepted it up to a point, but set set limits... Hence the kid got taken out of the skinner box more often and for longer periods of time than Skinner intended.
3.5 years not enough.
Worked just fine for me.
PSA: do NOT watch the first 6 minutes of Bones while eating. In fact, you might just avert your eyes altogether.
I've found avoiding that show around dinnertime in general is a good idea. Invariably either the manner in which the victim-of-the-week died or the results thereof are in some way reminiscent of the particular meal I'm eating.

Wallybee and I have been watching some of Season 2 over dinner. (It was available at the library, and has subtitles.) The show's nowhere near as dark as Criminal Minds (for instance) - though we've had some pretty disturbing cases over the last couple of nights - but it does like to go for the gruesome. (Doesn't bother me, but I wasn't sure how Wallybee would take it.)
CM has creepier people, but Bones has creepy visuals. Though I have to say that the cowrie faces from last night's CM definitely rank with the nastiest shit they've shown me.
billytea, you've been a topic of discussion around our home. Grace gets sign language homework. Sometimes the signs are useful (ice, mama, more, stop, no, yes, help, happy etc.) sometimes not so much. Last week we had to learn penguin and this week we had to learn frog. If nothing else, my daughter could have a broken sign language convo on topics of interest with you!
ILU MATT BOMER!
I instantly looked around for the "Like" button when I read this, Dana.

Hee. Just in time for Penguin Awareness Day!
Huh. Guess I'm going to be in San Francisco from June 21-23, and probably in Mountain View the rest of that week.
My husband is laughing at something he's reading on the internet. So's I innocently ask him, "What are you reading?" Answer? "I have no idea."
