Guy in middle with sunglasses had the right idea. I'd really like to know how dark they were though, he didn't even flinch at that flash.

That's getting harder and harder to do with "the shift". Now players are specifically working to beat the shift.

I think you had a lot of bad luck (and know people with bad luck) with finding the right life-partner and sincerely hope it doesn't permanently jade you for the rest of your life with your view on men. There are plenty of capable, will

... Sorry I took that so personally. I understand where you're coming from; but before we started a family I decided to play a much more important role in my child's lives than just the check-writer.

Whoa, this escalated. You're assumptions are incredibly wrong. > Whether your wife has a job or not, the odds are good that she is doing more of the house work and child rearing than you are. That doesn't necessarily mean you n

Also, congrats on being in the right place at the right time with that boom. I sincerely hope that works out for you in the event you ever do need to move (way, way, way into the future). Growth here is significantly more tame.

Your last point hits home to me. We have two and a third due next month. Room is starting to get cramped, but I highly value a place where my kids can grow up entirely within its walls. Also, I've done a lot of renovations to the home

I've had this conversation with my wife many times. She's aware of my arguments, and I'm aware of hers. I don't necessarily think it needs any mediation, though. That, to me, would signal that it's much more of a l

I guess I just protect my inbox more (or I'm just not that important - much more likely) but I don't have an issue using "Inbox Zero" without an "Inbox Zero" method. Am I alone?

This thread reminds me that I need to donate those three small pairs of slacks at the back of my closet gathering dust. And maybe find some shirts that aren't the "T" variety.

For what it's worth, you can now deactivate your Facebook, but maintain Messenger. It's what I've done in the interim while I figure out how much of Facebook I actually want.

Agreed, I think humans planting "exotic" trees have a lot more to do with tree migration than just global warming alone. Also, last year before we turned my childhood home into a rental I cleared out a large Coniferous tree I plan

For those with private student loans, the options are much less; usually deferment or forbearance, usually short-term. Most people who have/had private loans did so because they didn't qualify for FAFSA to determine that their fed

This is only possible in certain situations for certain borrowers who borrowed a certain kind of loan. Too many people think there's forgiveness light at the end of the tunnel. I feel really bad when they realize there isn't. Exce
