8. When my kids are whiny it annoys me, but when my kids cry from hurt feelings, it hurts my heart.

9. I started smoking cigarettes when I was 19, and quit when I was 25. I tried quitting 5 different times unsuccessfully, but the 6th time was a charm.

13. I have no patience for people who try to tell me how to live my life. My wife gets a pass on this one. ;)

14. I'll get choked up during movies, but I refuse to let myself cry.

17. I'm a self-employed Business Intelligence consultant, and have been for the last 3+ years. Self employment has been the key to happiness in my career. If/when the day comes that I have to get a "real" job again, it will be a sad day indeed.

18. I love geography. I think Google Earth is by far the coolest app ever developed.

19. I feel that religion can be part of the solution, but more often than not it's part of the problem.

20. I was born and raised Catholic, but I'm not raising my kids in any particular religion. When the subject comes up, I try to explain to them the belief systems of the different religions. I really just want them to find and follow their own path.

21. The last time I spanked one of my kids, she hurled her sippy cup back at me and hit me square in the forehead. I was torn between being angry and proud. Mainly proud. :)

22. I flunked out of college my freshman year. I was too young, too immature, and didn't know myself well enough to know what I wanted. I went back to school a couple of times but never finished. I always found work much more gratifying than school.

23. I played piano when I was younger and was pretty good at it. I quit b/c I was young and stupid. I recently purchased a piano and hope to re-learn it.

24. My dad worked for a large brewery for multiple decades, but I never saw him drink much. I always assumed it was b/c his dad was an abusive alcoholic, but now that I have kids I find myself avoiding alcohol as well. Especially when it means I'll be around my kids while under the influence. It's not that I'm a bad drunk, I'm just not a good enough parent when I've been drinking.

25. My vote for Obama was the first time I've ever been proud of my vote. After Obama was elected, this finally felt like my country.

"What's amazing to me is that the administration seems a little surprised that Congress and the American people are not marching in lockstep with them on this and not fully appreciating the urgency. Well here's why, in one word: accountability."

the country and most of the govt' (including most republicans) have already moved on from the failure-ridden actions of the heinous bush administration either because they're just tired of the crap or they're looking to distance their associations for future survival. the administration doesn't seem to be aware of that

Just got one of these. Got a huge discount b/c it's last year's model and was a floor model (no way I could stomach the retail price). We've had it two days and it is a blast. My girls (6 and 4) absolutely love it. The follow the lights teaching feature really draws them in.
