Not given the choice of "maybe", I will firmly stand behind my vote of "yes".

I should point out that you may choose both and that this is a public poll. So everyone will know.

The license plate my 3 year old removed from my car.

A California plate should be a nice novelty in TX. Just put it on anything you'd like to have shot full of holes.

Hmmmm - auto deduct - don't peek, think, read books, touch any buttons or poke any moving machinery.

'Hurry up and and just stand there.'

Is that a yes or no?

Oh and one more thing - if in New Orleans - never never never let work inferre with a party.

heh heh heh - ER wise - doing absolutely nothing for a long period was the secret to my success.

Wait a minute - we better not be talking about sex or pancakes! Or bacon!

Nope. Not yet anyhow. Trying to decide between the box, the red hook ESB or some champagne my wife has been trying to hide in the back of the garage fridge. But I gotta take Gabe out to get a school backpack when he wakes up from his nap, so not for a while yet...

CAN YOU BELIEVE MY FREAKIN KID IS GOING TO SCHOOL NEXT WEEK? HE WAS JUST BORN FER CHRISSAKES!!!

Anyhow, figured everyone could use a little whimsy on a day like today...

OMG, little Gabe? Already? Whew. Where does the time go.

Well congratulations on getting him through his baby years and off to school!
