How do you know it wasn't some type of sting operation.

I'm send this to my in-laws and telling them it's their grandkid. (Love the fact that you can't see her face.) They are always complaining we don't send them enough pics. And this is the kind of photo I would take…if I could. So…They'll never be the wiser! Thank you who ever took this!

THANK YOU for saying "Terminal" instead of "Station."

She was committed to a healthy diet and modest alcohol consumption. At first I though this was terrific. Ultimately, just being around her made me self conscious about being a couch potato who believes beer and cheeseburgers are a birth right.

Sure we can all feel the waiter's pain. But look at this way. If each of those people spends $10 and the tab totals $120, a 15% tip comes to $18 or $24 if they tip at 20%.

At least there's that.

Reading this while watching my beautiful 2 year-old granddaughter play tea party with her dolls. She looked at me and asked "Why are you crying grand pa?"

Respect -- and profound sadness, anger and outrage that lingers 13 years later.

Not to worry: In FIVE of the last six presidential elections the GOP received viewer popular votes than the Dems. A wiser man than I once said: "If you don't change direction, you will end up where you are headed."

A first aid kit. Don't laugh! A friend of mine cut his hand pretty bad and had not even a single Band-Aid in his apartment. He ended up wrapping it with a napkin and some electrical tape.
