Oh god, what an up and down week. So, on monday, the check-up comes back that Baby-On-The Way is doing fine, has a strong heartbeat, and is due April 1st.

But my wife had to be admitted to the hospital for dehyrdration and very low blood pressure (70/40) and low electrolytes. Also, she had low five pounds since her visit two weeks prior.

So she spends the night in the hospital, but is released on tuesday night. Thankfully, my M-i-L comes up to help with the kids so I can go into work where things are very hectic. And my wife will be staying at her mom's on LI next week so I can go to work and not have to take care of the girls.

And then today, I had a good interview for an open position at my company.

I need a funny show today.

good to hear things with wife seems to be fine.

I had my younger daughter trip and fall in my house and while no x-rays revealed nothing, she is still limping around a bit.

Yesterday my eldest was driving and got into a fender bender.
Good news is she SEEMS fine, but she had headaches, and my wife was arguing with her about going to the hospital to check it out (daughter didn't want to go).

so, yeah, I need good easy day.

Have not read the book, might try it.

The Prestige is just about the only movie, when I did not see it coming.

Honestly, 99% of the time, I know what's going on, The Ususal Suspects for me, sucked, because I knew who Keyser Söze was by the second act, same with sixth sense.

ENOUGH. ABOUT. TARANTINO.

I shouldn't rail on RB too hard for his QT man-crush since, if I were hosting a show right now, I'd be talking endlessly about what a genius James Cameron is and how phenomenal Avatar looks. Yes, I'm horribly jealous that Gbaby was in the presence of immortal cinematic greatness.

oh you racist, you assumed that one didn't you?

[aceofspades7]

i grew up near where Dave did (Middletown) - def thought it was a great place to grow up. Esp the beach.

[Hottub]

Most people think where they grew up was the best.
It's a fact.

[KatPw]

i had to put mine on the roof of my house a few months ago. the signal has gotten weaker i thinkWell that really sucks. I don't think I want to have to put it on the roof. Bad enough we can only have it in one window. All our other windows either don't face the right way or are blocked by trees (neighbor's trees, so I can't even trip them). And if they weakened the signal I definitely should blame Karmazin.

You too huh? I have to deal with that shit when I'm driving under clear skies next to the water (throggs neck bridge). There is no excuse for that.

not me.. the bronx in the 80's was NOT the place to be... watching cartoons on the floor so i wouldnt get shot thru the windows was def not fun or comfortable. :down:
well,
I was Bronx in the 60s and 70s.

it was "interesting"

(although to be fair, the 70s was Co Op City which wasnt bad until later)

i live in co-op now.

i grew up in the fordham/tremont section of the bronx... lots of projects, crack heads, and burned out buildings...

[KatPw]

I like where I grew up. Hence why I never moved. It could be better but I still would not trade it for the world.

[TjM]

I hated my hometown. Bunch of fake ass douches

[Furtherman]

I grew up not too far from Ron, just a couple miles down river, and yea, it always cracks me up how similar his growing stories are to mine. But yea, I split too after high school. I couldn't imagine staying in Philly. I had to get out there.

[Charlie_Don't_Surf]

I grew up in the Caribbean. I lived right near the beach (about 2 minutes walking). I could go wherever I wanted whenever I wanted. We had weed and tobacco growing in the backyard. I could just hop on a dirtbike and just go ride anywhere. Yup, everything was cream.

[Hottub]

Try ESPN 2, Dave.

If it was so idyllic, why did you/your family leave?

It's great if you want to relax or vacation, but beyond that there is no real opportunity.

My dad still lives there (co-op)- we keep telling him to move.
Up until I was 7, I lived in South Bronx (near St Mary's Park).

I went to Bronx Science, so I'm familiar with Fordham area too.

tech is about 6 hours from virginia beach...

makes going home for school break way better.

My winters were spent back in the Bronx.

:(

Having said all of this, I now live in a well-to-do area (we are the poor ones there);
I don't know if my kids are better off or not.

[KatPw]

Is that still the case there? You would think nowadays with a global economy and the internet that you could make/find opportunity anywhere (except for now with the whole global recession thing of course).

Buddies, I've just gotten word from our pal ANC... he's the proud papa of a 7 lb. 3 oz. baby boy! Mrs. NC and new baby are doing great and Ant couldn't be happier!

My kids know we are poor, and can deal with it.


Correction. I am poor, they get whatever they need.

Just don't let them turn into the typical new money long island asshole. We are already at capacity.

[RhinoinMN]

Rochester, MN

85 miles of Rollerblading and bike paths.


Those paths are breeding grounds for rapists and gays.

If you are a woman you have a good chance of being raped and or seeing some man on man action in the woods. Same goes for a man I guess.

[Charlie_Don't_Surf]

I would never leave.


Except for being dirt poor.

The dirt poor thing really starts to get annoying after a while.

My dad still lives there (co-op)- we keep telling him to move.
Up until I was 7, I lived in South Bronx (near St Mary's Park).

I went to Bronx Science, so I'm familiar with Fordham area too.

co-op isn't all that bad, I used to hang out there more in high school now I prefer cross county. Thinking about it your dad was probably annoyed as hell about a month ago when we had a big biker/auto bash at the motorcycle shop down the road. I think it went till 3.


Is that still the case there? You would think nowadays with a global economy and the internet that you could make/find opportunity anywhere (except for now with the whole global recession thing of course).

Nah it's still pretty hard to get by. Anyone who wants to leave generally does by a certain age.

I used to play football against kids from St. Anthony's, Chaminade and Holy Trinity. Those asshole kids and their asshole parents were the WORST!!

[CHUCKWAGONCOOK]

Congratulations to ANC and his new Family Member and meaning of life.

You are loved.

[PD]

I am VERY conscious of that.

I make sure my kids say please, thank you, etc. but when my daughter would casually mention how her friends are vacationing in Paris, I do wonder what they think.

As Hottub alluded to with his kids, it is very tough walking that fine line between giving more to our kids and giving too much to our kids.

[Dell]

look like a dentist...

[PD]

Yay to ANC- for show mention.

[KatPw]

:laugh: i may know who you are referring to
:laugh: I wasn't even thinking of him actually. I have enough refrences closer to home in my family and Mike's (only one member of his family thankfully but that is bad enough). Living on the island is like living in one giant town at times so you come across all sorts.

I apologize on behalf of my Island. I hate those kinds too. I'm actually ignored by a local group on a knitting board because I don't fit in with those types :laugh:

[Hottub]

I grew up in a very diverse town. Many of the kids where still riding bikes or driving 74 Gremlins, while the kids up on the hill in "Little Israel" (not my name for it) got Camaros and BMWs for their 17th birthday.

Sickening.

I don't see a vacation in Paris as a bad thing if you can swing it. But it depends on the context. A trip to a foreign country is a perfect time to expose a child to cultural differences and expose them to different art, architecture, food and such. But the trip is only what the parents make it to be. It's the materialism, nastiness, and selfishness that needs to be done away with, not the teaching of culture and art. It really has more to do with the parenting itself, not the money. But sometimes the money ends up controlling the parenting, because what parent doesn't want their kid to have everything and also never have to hear them whine?
Teach them compassion and values, and that it's not about hording and they will be fine.

the people with real money are often not as bad (Charlie - I'm sure you met some of those at Cornell- I sure did)

no, sorry thats not what i meant. It's not bad, it's just things that we aren't doing.


oh and some of those families would have the parents vacation in Paris for 2-3 weeks and leave their HS aged kids to wreak havoc

Oh you mean the Freshman with a new BMW, that had a place off campus and a room on campus(mandatory). Yeah I know those.

Edit: To be fair, I also knew some rich kids and you wouldn't know it until you saw their cars and houses, but they never acted like "those" of which we speak.

Gotcha.
I've never gotten leaving your kids in a house alone for 3 weeks. I know the havoc I would have wreaked if my parents did that, and I was a fairly well behaved teen with a healthy fear of authority. I guess they think their kids are angels.

I agree. I go to a lot of events up on the Gold Coast. We end up talking to the people around us during intermissions and such and the old money'ed ones look like everyone else. They tend to be thriftier with their money which is smart.
