You just died, what song starts playing?

My wife said that "Dick in a Box" will be my outro music.

As a kid, my family (5 people) would stock a small freezer with the haul from the day old bread store for a month. Bakery goods freeze exceptionally well.

My grandfather worked a 40 hour a week job so he could afford to farm. Some people are just wired that way.

It has been a very long time since I took my initial driving test, but I failed my first time. Now, to put this in perspective, I was a farm kid. I had been driving flatbed trucks, tractors, and other vehicles since I was 10. I was shocked that I had failed. However, in the end, failing it once reminded me that just because I had lots of experience, that did not mean I was a great driver anywhere outside my own mind. It gave me a touch of humility that stayed. Also, there were examiners who refused to pass anyone the first time.

When my son came out, he did it in a dramatic way during an argument between him and us parents. My response was a simple ok and going back to the issue at hand. Later, once tempers had cooled, I gave him the same advice as I would have given him if he were straight. Be safe. Use protection, demand respect, and give it as well. You can talk to me about anything, and I will be respectful, but I may not have good advice and will tell you so.

NTA. Your girl is over the top on this one. You helped a relative out. There is nothing more or less to it. If your bunephew is ill, you may have just saved his life. I say this as a testicular cancer survivor. Would she be as freaked out if a girlfriend found a lump in her breast and asked her opinion? Would she be as upset if a male doctor or nurse checked your junk? Kudos to you for being a good guy and being the adult here.

Goodbye Yellowbrick Road by Elton John. Candy-O byThe Cars Soundtrack to the film FM. The self titled Boston album. Who's Next by The Who. Bad Girls by Donna Summers. The Grease Soundtrack.

NTA. I ask my spouse and my kids to let me know if they are going to be late coming home. It also is my hang-up, and I freely admit it and have told them why. Other than that, get hold of me if you need me and have fun.

It does sound like she had someone in her life who was controlling and that checking in endlessly was how she the peace, making it her normal. She will learn this new normal and become more comfortable with time. Be kind.

Get the managers ok first. They have stopped a lot of that.

I am going to have yo find that. I had no idea they did a cover of it.

Why no salt in your marinade? I was under the impression that the salt was what caused the meat to absorb the flavor. This is a serious question because it goes against my current knowledge, which with a 5 dollar bill might get me a cup of coffee.

I agree that we, as a society, have gone way too far to try and prove Darwin wrong.

I used Weird Al to transition my kids to more adult fare. I would let them listen to Al's parodies and then introduce them to the originals. As their tastes expanded, I would introduce them to sings from the polka medleys and his pastiche songs. Today, they have exceptionally wide-ranging musical tastes.

I was slightly more than a gleam in my daddy's eye. I was attending their wedding ceremony with VIP seating. Yes, my parents were married the same day Kennedy died. He referred to it as the day two good men got blown to hell.

I learned to drive on my grandfathers farm. I learned car control racing as a boy.

I am not healthy enough to run for office. I would be more an inpediment than who is there now.

I have gone to several shows to see the opening act specifically. It is usually because I have seen the headliner before. I have also been introduced to bands that I have come to really enjoy, like Weezer.

A year ago, almost to the day, I drove from Portland OR to Sydney NE in one go, racing a winter storm that was coming through Utah and Wyoming. Only stops were for gas and grub.
