The G:TB Parenting Chronicles
We don't often get serious in this space, but on occasion we find it important to change the tone, to put down our noisemakers and silly toys and provide sober commentary on the issues of the day. Many in the G:TB are parents, or will soon be. As ostensibly upstanding members of our various communities, the lessons we impart upon our children are vital, both to their wellbeing and to the ways in which they engage the world.

Richard Milhous "Boner" Stabone
technically, i told her a 'boner' was a mistake, but i wasn't going to argue semantics midway through my third beer at the nats game.
So what did you tell her the other definition was?
didn't.

This one is out of left field, as usual from me.
I'm a Soul Coughin fan but a bigger fan of Mikes' solo stuff. After seeing this interview I think he'd be a great fill for the Zman on the TJ & Zman show. And he could be the hipper music twin of TJ.

Hipper than the Teej? Pshaw.
And how do you get a screenshot of a text exchange?
And how can I block that from ever happening on my phone?
Is it un-American for me to dislike Phelps?
I dislike Phelps as well.
Jessica hates potheads.
Shlara - he's got that Lance/Tiger "best on the planet" complex. It's troubling.
Clarence, google is your friend.
Blur has an app?
Lance and Tiger are d-bags for how they treat women. But I respect their athletic skills and their mental toughness.
Phelps is a dork and just annoying and clearly is over the whole Olympics thing. That bothers me.
waiting for the president to speak at a rally in my town. anybody got anything they'd like me to convey to him?
tell him to ditch the whole economy thing and focus his campaign on saving the oahu tree snail. those things are nearly extinct! people need something to rally behind. save the tree snail!
50 meter underwater cam....more please.
Anybody else just wrap up two consecutive 15.5 hour days? Just me?
