Weekend Messin’ With Baby Open Comments

Babies are awesome. They can also be a lot of work and cause great worry when they get sick or hurt. In return, they give you lots of love. They can be a source of great amusement.
You can play dress-up:

Teach them how to play with food:

Eventually they’ll get tired, so you’ll have to give them their pacifier:

After baby wakes up from his nap, it’s off to the store with mommy.  Sometimes mommy will need to take care of some business, but what to do with baby when there’s no duck tape handy?

Just because baby is still small, doesn’t mean he can’t learn.  One of life’s most important lessons is that we all have to pull our own weight.  But what can baby do?  He can’t walk or carry things.  He just skootches along the floor.  Well, put him to work using his special gifts.

One day, he will thank you for how well-adjusted he is.

Maybe the Brotherhood of United Hamster Moderators Society (BUHMS) are on strike.

Well Bob, I guess all the Hamster(mod)erators are on strike or are pulling their hair out trying to make the deadline.

No Cheating! See if you can guess the name of this song with out clicking the linkie. It was released as a single by the Doobie Brothers in 1974, as the B-Side of Another Park Another Lonely Sunday. The A-side didn’t get as much air play as it might have because some program directors had a problem with the phrase,… Read more »

#94 FA, Now that is good news. I bet many of the mainstream Hollywood types are in full dyspepsia at the reports. Let’s send ’em some Pepto and keep on recommending the movie to friends and neighbors. 🙂

I’ve seen many a great movie noted above…………….I’m betting ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” must have slipped past yall somehow
It was a GREAT one and (IMHO) quite a remarkable rendition of the book…………

The U.S. government under Barack Obama is deeply committed to battling any belittlement, criticism, or questioning of Islam. (“I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States,” he said, “to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.”) At the same time, however, it is OK, in the Obama regime [SEE BELOW FOR AN UPDATE],… Read more »

For those who are interested, Atlas Shrugged opened this weekend with a box office of $1.7 million. This was for a limited release of only 300 screens. It was the top grossing limited release (released only in selected areas) of the weekend. Depending on who you listen to the results range from “disappointing” to “encouraging” probably depending on the political… Read more »

Mount Gay produces several fine varieties of rum. I did not know they have been around for so long, though. Other favorites; Lemon Hart Demerara 151 (Guyana), Barbancourt (Hatit), Coruba (Jamica). Not sure if the Lemon Hart is again available in Texas yet. Something about change of owner ship and U.S. import laws.

bob #79; It would be a tall order to match the books I don’t think that would be possible. Especially due to the length of the books and the story line. Frodo, for example, spent many years in the Shire before leaving for his journey, correct? Talk about making a boring movie by adhiring to the books. One advantage I… Read more »

From Drudge’s link to TSA SINGLES OUT PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN http://www.cnn.com/2011/TRAVEL/04/15/tsa.screeners.complain/ The 9/11 commission’s report says that “none of the checkpoint supervisors (on September 11th) recalled the (successful) hijackers or reported anything suspicious regarding their screening.” Some years back I saw an interview with a ticket agent who let Mohammed Atta in, even though he got chills just looking at… Read more »

I find myself in full agreement with Hamous.

I think scotch gets a bad rap because people usually start with the blended crap. A nice single malt is very tasty.

I blame the full moon.

Having read The Hobbit & the LOTR trilogy several times, I wasn’t expecting much from the movies. It would be a tall order to match the books, so I’m not going too hard on the director. There were parts I thought were well done, but overall they were boring. Chances are I’ll read the books again in a few years.… Read more »

further to my #77 above, if one has to “develop a taste” for sumptin it is probably better left unconsumed. Scotch never tasted good to me while bourbon always did. I also really like a well made rum, like Mount Gay, or some of the other darker rums; baccardi really does not fall in that category.

#75 Pyro: You are correct, Sir, that form of fire-water simply is not pleasant on my tongue. Wild Turkey 101 on the other hand is pretty nice. Crown Royal on the rocks is pretty nice as well.

We rented and watched The Fighter last night, I don’t know if the soundtrack was especially good or if it just fit my system extremely well, but the songs sounded awesome. The movie was pretty good too.

I read the LTR trilogy and saw the movies. The big screen simply ain’t no match for my vivid imagination. I still enjoy movies based on books but the books are usually better for the above reason.

Fat Albert #49; There are those who would disagree, but I believe that the film adaptations of The Lord of The Rings trilogy, while taking necessary liberties to adapt the books to the screen, were nevertheless faithful and successful, and did full justice to JRR Tolkien’s vision.

I’m not much on movies, ’bout one a year, maybe………but I do try to go with Dee to some of the society type shindigs occasionally.
We went to see tenor Plácido Domingo performing the world most famous arias.
He doesn’t like it when you join in.
