And I get flak for taking the boy into work with me. Better to look up to a Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine than one of these Hollyweird elites. Heck even a Coastie is a better role model.
Sorry, I could care less. If she can't stand up and be a parent to her kids, give them to the ex and be done with it.

I can clearly see the influence of jim in your statement about the schoolgirl outfit, but what does Coke have to do with it....?

ERM I never ever even tried Coke, schoolgirl outfit? NAH, being an engineer I admit to being a sucker for a pretty girl in Denim overalls.

Very good rant, Skunky. I detest what is often passed off as "news" these days, so I get my news from the newspaper and a periodical that I subscribe to. Our newspaper, thank goodness, doesn't scream the going ons of celebreties as news too often, and I can easily skip over it when it does.

As for you, MoMo, this forum is located right here in the good ol' neighborly US of A, so get over it!

Hey I remember them.

I should have added to my post that when I first caught a glimpse of Lorraine parking her plough in the barn wearing a denim overall and wiping the mud from her face It was love at first sight.

I was smitten as we say around these parts.
Then when she removed her Balaclava and I saw those golden locks stuck flat to her head I just new that a girl that could sweat like that was the one for me.

Irrespective of any flak you may get Shawn, you're definitely setting the right example by being prepared to take your kid to work with you on occasion . Not only does it set an example and help him understand what it is that you do, but those are memories that will never be forgotten . (BTW don't Coasties help fish Paras out of the water ... ? .)

One of my favorite actors, Robert Duvall, stated the following regarding Hollywood starlets and their drama:

"I live in Virginia."

Well said my smelly striped friend. Not to mention I think the press needs to lay off the doom and gloom side of the world and maybe talk about the positive things in our world for once!
