My kids are forever messed up...

So, I'm commenting on Of Muskies and Metal and we start talking about Dokken and
George Lynch. This brings back memory's of younger days with hair, so I bring out the Dokken CD and start playing it in the trusty steed. My two little rodents in the back start singing to the songs at which point my DW turns around and asks my oldest DD " Do you even know what band this is"? To which my DD replies " It's Dokken" with that Duh look on her face. My DW then turns to the younger child and asks "what is the name of the song"? And she replies "
Alone Again" also with the Duh look on her face.

I love my kids. They rock, no, I really mean they rock.

If you like Dokken, try Lynch Mob. Lynch Mob is the band that George Lynch formed after the break up of Dokken.

I'm a little old school and feel that if you are going to get just one album, go for Wicked Sensation from 1990. Much darker than what he did with Dokken, very raw in form. I like this album a lot.Best bet: "Hell Child" and "Bed of Roses".

The album "Lynch Mob" from 1992 is more produced and most likely a better album. I still like Wicked Sensation better. "No Good" is the best on the album.I've not heard "REvolution", which is the last album that I know of.

yeah, I had to ask them to review the "Double Take" exhibit and do a venn diagram today just to balance this influence -

I think I may have to go as far as a compare/contrats essay . . .

a little NPR and Pink Martini in the Subaru today to "balance" your influence . . .

Yep, when my 11 year old pulled out his Iron Maiden CD I almost cried I was so proud. Some how Momma Musky didn't see it the same way...but hell she likes C&W.

Ahhhh you rockin' little Woodchuck. You KNOW I knew who you were talking about! Not that I was huge fans of them, but I was a fan by default of the 'boyfriend' at the time (who became my husband!)

I'm just glad he didn't want to name our first born son George!

(Although he was almost named Zakk Sebastian... for Zakk Wylde and Sebastian Bach!)

Meritt - ah, but Maraya is named after the band Saraya and Elleah after the Donny Iris song "Ah, Leah"

Man, at least their middle names are quasi normal - from Star Trek!

So, what car would you buy your kid???

There seems to be a general discussion running rampant around here about what type of car you should by a kid. And when said car should appear around the house. As I only have 4 years to pull this off, better start now. Things to consider before buying the car: 1. DD must complete 12 hours of flight time before taking test for permit. 2. Complete at least one driving school, Skip Barber , Bondurant Racing School , and so on. 3. DD must be able to change a tire, change the oil, do basic maintance on the car. I would like them to be able to strip down an engine and do a rebuild , however that may be just to much at this point. 4.DD must understand that I will not under any circumstance have or allow a pink car to park in front of my house. Cars come in four colors only, Red, Blue, Black, and British Racing Green. 5. Just what is the perfect Horse power to weight ratio? 6. Only one passenger in the car at a time. This is a good argument for a older British sports car that only has two s...

When do you take a Vacation?

I don't really take vacations, instead I take a lot of small trips with my family. I put the two little rodents in the back and we drive and enjoy time with each other. Although no one in the family is a road warrior like me, they do enjoy the destinations. I have not taken any days off this year and will take my "Vacation time" in December and have fun with the rodents. I guess I will never understand someone who needs to leave the kids with the Grandparents and go away for two weeks to some place expensive for a break. I mean, shouldn't you home life and family be where you want to go when you need a break. However, I do understand that this does not apply to my MIL....not going there.....not going there........We teach our kids to live and breathe in this world, don't do that, don't do this. But, do we ever teach our kids to have fun. Does anyone ever say do this, do that, or run wild and have fun? Next time you are driving down the road and you pass one of...

Starbucks everywhere

SEMA.... There was a Starbucks not to far from the booth, but what is up with the price of everything almost double what it is at a normal Starbucks? And when I tried to order a Venti Americano in a Tall cup, the guy just gave me that " I'm soooo confused " look. So I tried to order it in more simple terms, "four shots with just a little water for color". This just made matters worse. In the end I just received a Venti. I as a rule don't like the Venti as it's as tall as I am and makes it hard to drink. And in support of the glorious Hamster, please go vote for him and his new World Order at the Ellen Degeneres web site. vote: Hamster Write in: Wicked Hamster As the TKW says "Vote now and Vote often"
