More stats behind my "Why would anyone CHOOSE to live in California?" thoughts...

4 of the top ten places hit the hardest with underwater mortgages are in Cali.

I suppose this mainly means people are agreeing with me and choosing NOT to go there.

I think I'm going to have to retire my Neo costume for Halloween.  It's depressing to wear such an iconic outfit and have people say "Oh, you're The Matrix!"

Yes.  I am The Matrix.  The Matrix itself.  The whole thing!  You fucking moron.

People who dress up as Yoda aren't dressed up as Star Wars.  People who dress up as Batman aren't dressed up as DC Comics.  

For fuck's sake.

You've embraced the cold hard facts of life.  And a happy wife means a happy life.

Personally.. I'm still stuck with .. *

**  Note not my actual car because I don't have a damn picture of my car so I had to use the interwebs to find the same make and model.  I suck for not having pictures.

@ Dag - Volvo v50 d2 - with an R bodywork it seems - nice and brand new.

@ Ash - I recall you saying the same thing when Dag was looking a few years back -it rather stuck in my mind at the time.

Aye - wife is safe; I still have fun for me;) http://www.scenicreflections.com/files/Mini_Cabrio_134_1024x768.jpg

Random surfing on youtube brought this to my attention. Good lord I couldn't agree more. But I would rather whip the terrible ass parents personally.

I used to think I was perfect. However, thinking ones self perfect is conceit and conceit is a character flaw... I have no character flaws.

Not sure yet. If I convince a friend or two to go I think we'll rent a car one-way, otherwise I'll fly.

It's looking like either way I'll be picking it up on the 12th. But, then it's a 10-12 hour drive back and it'd be awesome if I made it home before it was too late so I could go out for my birthday which is the 13th, lol.

You're such a cranky old man, but so am I :-)

Not having children I feel I am the least qualified person to comment, but here is my take as an outside observer.
0-4 part of growing up, but this is a crucial time for parents to establish boundaries
when they're 5-12 and misbehaving, it's mostly just annoying and I blame the parents failure in the first part, still there is room for change/tweaking
when they're 13-adult, I blame the kids, at this point they're practically a lost cause for the parents, hopefully the kid will grow up on their own.
If all the world's problems were solved today, what would you have left to do tomorrow?

Didn't watch the video, but spanking is an important part of discipline at younger ages. Young children don't have a sense of ownership of anything, pride, or sympathy that can be used in punishment - but they all understand "If I do this, my butt hurts".
