My wife, Megan is a 6th grade science teacher. Today her students were giving reports on the scientists that they were assigned 3 weeks ago. The assignment involved dressing up like their scientist. One parent stormed into the office to complain that if her son Jason got beat up today, it was Megan's fault for requiring him to wear a dress to school. Jason was given the option to change out of the dress and into some bluejeans. He decided to just wear the jeans underneath the dress, even though he wouldn't present his report until the last period of the day.

You know, a lot of my solutions to the worlds problems sound the same.

Do you remember when you were a kid, you would take things just because you didn't want your brother/sister to have them? Then a ig fight broke out until a parent came over and took the toy away. Your parents told you that if you can't act like adults and learn to share and get along, then no one could have it?

I work in a garden center. Our busy season is just around the corner. (duh). Gardening is also one of my favorite hobbies, it's a dying art.  Most of my generation thinks of the word "gardening" as a synonym for hard, monotonous, punishment.  They are really missing something. Let me paint a few mental images for you.

Picking apples in your backyard with your children during a crisp fall afternoon.

Letting your 3 year old niece eat raw sugar snap peas from the seeds she helped you plant.

Three managers are in the office, The secretary (who cleans the bathrooms) comes in and asks the indelicate question, " Did any of you take a crap in the employee bathroom in the last hour?"

One says Yes.

The secretary then leads him into the bathroom and asks him to clean up the smeared turd he left on the SEAT.

"What, that little thing?" the manager says.

I wanted to ask him what was the maximum allowable amount of shit considered acceptable to leave on a toilet seat.

I think it's about a pound and a half.

I wish there were stronger swear words than what we have now. Fuck, Shit, Goddamn, Asshole, Cocksucker, they have been used so often that the impact is diluted. No shock value, no meaningful addition of emphasis, They don't mean anything anymore.

 I think the new swear words should have physical side effects, mild ear bleeding, short episodes of gran mal seizures and perhaps a little loss of bowel control. Nothing big, just a little squirt of pee perhaps, not a full on dumper.
