When I was a kid about 30 years ago my parents bought for me the World
Book set of encyclopedias. It was fairly common for the families we

My next-door neighbor railed into me this
morning.  My 5-year-old Pillbug is autistic
and screeches a lot.  I honestly had no idea
it was this bad, though - I've learned to

Can anyone help me figure out this mystery?  My 16-month old wakes up
between midnight and 2 am every single night and cries very loudly. He
just wakes up every night without fail, sits up and cries, with his
eyes closed.  He says "No, no!" and pushes us away if we try to pick

Do your Men's height set YOU apart from the rest of the pack? Well,
that depends on you being on HEIGHT INCREASING SHOES.
Accomplishing that task though, is nowhere near easy! If that were the
case everyone would be styling hard, and well wear gentlemen in men's

Reading the car thread made me think on the issue of grandparents doing
things their own way. I am in accord with Ericka that if the kids are
hanging out with the grandparents, the grandparents should have the liberty
to use their judgement as they see fit. I would tend to see ...

I just received my July 21 issue of U.S. News & World Report. Their
cover article that took up about 3/4 of the issue was America's Best
Hospitals. Well, I want to tell you folks that I don't want to be in
the very best, top, champion hospital. And because I don't want

When my older two were 4 and 5, they were jumping on my mom's
trampoline one evening after supper.  My mom and I were having coffee
and watching them.  Suddenly....'AHHH!' ... they both stopped.  The
older boy held his hand to the top of his head, and the younger

The Bushies know they can't afford to lose the one "administration"
program that some consider at least a PARTIAL SUCCESS.  So they are
obsessively protective of the program and quick to dismiss and
belittle any criticism of the "tests" -- which many educators say

KEEP YOUR PANTS ON! (ON ALL DAY, ON ALL NIGHT)

There are times when, as a man, I just have to hang my head between my knees
  and weep with joy when I contemplate my reproductive rights. We have no

OK, is it me or did we all just get whisked off to the Twilight Zone?  In
jail this guy isn't going to have anyway to earn him cash to pay for
anything, so just how did the judge come up with the idea he should continue
paying for something that the court knows full well he can't ...

Here I am at the community wading pool.  It is shallow enough for
toddlers to walk in.  We brought a few toys for the kids, like a ring
and a raft.  A rather large family comes to share the pool.  They didn't
bring toys for their kids.  Their kids played with our kids' toys and
