Your dog looks like all his wishes have been granted.
Also, killing time before my meeting with the drug and alcohol adviser and I have a few whoopsies to own up to. Fortunately, they're lovely about these things.
I think as a positive action to take the place of my addictions I am going to fix dad's truck, although he says that I would be better off calling a priest than a mechanic

If things go the way they look like they might be going in the fall, and if my joints don't cause me issues, I could be doing a whole lot of training..... and if it works out, I will be a happy Xue.

I do NOT approve of this modern bleeding parenting. The only reason it got started was because middle class parents didn't like the idea of their children being told off by working class people at nursery. It isn't 'child centred', it's centered around adults who want to avoid their parental responsibilities, and children who never hear the word 'no' and have somebody mean it are going to have a rude bloody awakening when they get to school.

Fully agree. Spare the rod spoil the child. Spoil the child too much, screw up the entire world.

Particularly when one of those very spoiled children end up as the president.

I hope everything falls into place.

I'm not sure I'd go that far,but sometimes you need to be able to say "no, that's dangerous" and be listened to. They simply aren't old enough to be making some kind of decisions. And personally, being told to eat what I was given meant I didn't miss out on some important and meaningful culinary experiences.

I mean if I'd been allowed to be picky, I would never have eaten oysters, among other things

Interesting work development..... looks like the Corp has now taken virtually everything I do to their side of the house.... didn't tell me about it...but it is virtually all theirs now...... the state side of the house is assigning me a job to deal with the corp..... that does not exist as far as the corp is concerned..... so..... it could be...from now, until I retire... i have virtually nothing to do.....meetings next week, I'll know more then...maybe

Discipline is important. But corporal punishment is counterproductive.

An important point. One should, after all, be able to outwit a child

I assume you are referring to the Last 'President'.

It’s best we not post political opinions here. I retract my earlier statement in regards to any one individual in particular.
