Oh dear, your daughter is a little monster!! I don't think your wife was very happy when she saw her night cream on the bathroom surface.

Yeah, I was also like that. When I was 2, I shoveled the entire fireplace out into the living room sofa, then created "smoke" signals by pounding my hands onto it. They had to replace all the furniture, and paint the walls to fix it

Well...now we know where she got her misfitness from!!! What about your eldest son?

He is the neat one. Doesn't like to get messy or dirty. Super smart, sometimes too smart for his own good
My youngest is the bruiser, he's rough and tumble (I LOVE IT) and the only one who comes to greet me at the door every day when I get home from work. It's about time I got one that favored me, my other two are Momma's all the way.

3 guys walk into a motel. The manager says it will be $30 for one room. So they split it 3 ways...$10 each. They walk away and head for the elevator and go to their room. The manager then realizes that he overcharged them by $5. He hands the bell hop $5 and says to take this back up to the 3 men. On his way up the bell hop can't see how to split it $5 three ways. So he keeps $2 and tells the men they were overcharged by $3 and he gives each one $1.
Before their refund they each paid $10 equaling $30.
Getting $1 back they have now each paid $9 equaling $27.
The bell hop kept $2.
What happened to the last $1?

I like this one, but it can be maddening when you are focused on the $30 they originally paid as being relevant once they got the refund

I always look at it from the standpoint of the original $30.
Each man has $1 ($1 x 3 = $3).
The bellhop has $2.
The hotel clerk has $25.
$2+$25+$3 = $30

Anyone try the HTC challenge where you guess which photo was taken with a digital professional SLR and which ones were taken with the One X? Check it out.
You guys have been rather chatty today!
On my way home, and catching up. So there was a candy discussion eh? I don't eat much but when I do it's generally a Snickers. I always want some salty, savory quality with my candy.

Dreadnatty,
I am still not able to see the picture... I am really interested in how your setup looks with the wallpaper and clock. Mind re-posting?

I haven't use the app since sometime early last year. It was horrible. I check when I'm bored or post if I need to let people know something important.

Wow...and they still kept you? I was a little rabscallion myself. I once got into my mother's nail polish and painted my toenails...all the way up to my hips. Then, less than a week later, I slipped through the railings on our third floor balcony and climbed down to the balcony on the 2nd floor below us. My mother had to start dying her hair at a very young age...she was completely gray by the time she was my age. I cannot imagine why.

Haha, nice! Sometimes I wonder how kids survive to adulthood with all the dumb stuff they do without knowing better.
Good Morning all. So bumped my runs to 3.5 miles last night. I have decided my goal is 6 miles/night by the end of July, if I can do that, I will sign up for the half marathon that is in November. The heat is going to make it tough though.
Morning everyone!
Congrats on your run Anti. Gah, I haven't run in forever. At the gym I was getting close to 8 mile runs. It put a huge strain on my body though, I was definitely going to far for my ability. Keep it up, you'll get to 6 in no time!
Ouch, $9000 gonna have to pass on that. Although I love the dual view technology, let the kids watch one thing while my wife and I watch what we want. And I'm sure the OLED screen looks awesome.
Two days in a row now that I've traded in my sausage and biscuit for a bowl of oatmeal at breakfast. I'm still hanging on to my real, non-diet, Dr. Pepper like grim death though.

Facebook Appstore...not an App store for Android app right? Caused I can see them having a Facebook Appstore. Instead of having those extensions for free on FB, you have to pay for it.

Are we telling our childhood mistfit stories? I was 4/5 and I hated taking naps. So when my babysitter left me for asleep, I'd sneak out of the house, crawl through the lower part of the fence. Then I'll hale some friends to play with me. I'd play until I got hungry and then come home. I was gone for an hour and I wasn't noticed. The adults finally caught on to what I was doing when they saw the red line of welts down my back from crawling under the (metal) fence.

How long does it take you to run 3.5 miles? I'm starting my running now and it's 3 miles in 35 minutes. My objective is to get it to 30 minutes
Anti, you should do a couple of quarter marathons this summer It's good training for your half marathon I signed up for a quarter marathon in July

I thought this comment in the article was funny:

For $9,000 I expect the TV to come with those two hot girls too.
Those models are so pretty and elegant

Thanks! It's not all good though...I do put a little slice of butter and some brown sugar in it...but it's better for me than a fatty sausage biscuit. I have a separate fruit bowl that I bring for an afternoon snack that contains fresh cut (not pre-packaged) strawberries, pineapple, mango, blueberries, and kiwi.

Mine has just as little bezel (0.2"). It's a kick-a$$ TV and it does everything: 3D, internet, DLNA, just... everything. Sure, the OLED has a picture that "pops" a little more: but having come from a 13-year old 36" CRT, this rig pops quite enough, thank you.
If you're looking for an HDTV, look no further than the UN55D8000. Samsung does have a 9000 series, but the differences are so small - and the price difference so big - that it just didn't seem to be the better choice.
Besides, if I had 9 grand to spare, I have other things to spend it on than a TV

I'm still rolling this bad boy Sony KDF-E42A10 42-Inch LCD Rear Projection. Then I have a cheap 32" Vizio in the bedroom. I spent more on my new 24" computer monitor than the Vizio and almost as much as I spent on the Sony 5 years ago.

I usually end up with egg whites and cheese on a roll or a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast. I actually had a Dr. Pepper yesterday morning and it was so delicious - sometimes I miss drinking soda.
The only soda I drink normally is Ginger Ale - otherwise its water or iced tea/lemonade.
Pup, that place looks awesome! We don't really have any diners in DC, sadly. I grew up on diners in SE MA. Shawmut in New Bedford was one of our favorites:
