Caillou is like a gay version of baby Georges St Pierre. It wouldn't be so bad if there were more than like 4 episodes of the show.

Kurt Vonnegut novels are a mindscrew. I've read a couple, but I can't take them anymore.

The daddy thing rules. Nothing better than coming home and hearing "Daddy, Daddy!" as they come running up to give you a hug.

I also picked up a copy of One Second After and World War Z. I've already read WWZ, but wanted an actual copy of it.

I loved One Second After. It really got me thinking about preparedness and just how succeptible we are in our modern society. Been trying to stock up on my critical med's. We've also lost a lot of skills that we would need in a scenario like that. There's some real heart-breaking stuff in the book though and a few things that'll just piss you off 'cuz you know people would act just like that in a real situation of this nature.

Are you saying that the show doesn't drive you nutso? It wouldn't be bad if I hadn't already seen every episode 100 times.


Ginsue: If you haven't read Lights Out yet, pick up a copy or I'll email you my copy. I think Lights Out and One Second After go hand in hand.

Thanks to the person on here who sent me his copy of Lights Out. It was a good read and I appreciate it. You know who you are.

Before Alex came into my Life Barney was the brunt of any Joke conceivable.
Caillou wasn't even a blip on my radar.
Kids shows were a distant memory in my past I thought I would never revisit.


Now I Sit and watch all of them with him. we play cars and watch "tartoons" on "Spout" (Sprout channel).

Ive watched Sprout channel so much I think I am in love with Nina...

Bob the Builder is filing a lawsuit against the Obama administration. When Bob the Builder was asked if he thought he could win, he replied "Yes we Can!"

I find myself remembering "Kids Jokes" to tell my Nieces and my sons Play-dates Later...

I know all about it. I favor Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network though because those shows are written for adults. Sprout is like the Bloomberg News Channel for kids with all that crap on the screen and shows that are like 3 minutes long. I do like watching my kid do those dances and stretches though.

Atlas Shrugged. Looooooong book but definately a good read.

Stuart - I'll see if I can find my own copy of Lights Out to pick up but would like to reserve the offer to your as a raincheck if I can't find one.


As far as Atlas Shrugged, loved it and see it as more relevant today than it was when it was originally published. Ayn Rand sure knew what she was talking about. She finally got me to realize that Robin Hood was no more than a violent two-bit thief. Id so love to find a hidden valley somewhere here in CO that I could move into and set up my own community. Of course, they're coming out with an Atlas Shrugged movie here pretty soon and I'm afraid it'll be a Hollywood liberal smear of the heart and soul of what the story is really about.
