Yeah, I know that, because when all the rich kids were out fucking off in high school - I was taking care of elderly people at the Nursing Home.

Wade......something i would check on if i were you.
Your Mom said she had your "Dad" with her a couple of times. Is it possible that someone working at the nursing home may be molesting her?
If they know she's "out of it", they may be using that to their advantage.
I'm not trying to worry you even more, but there are animals like that who prey on those who can't defend themselves.

Is she in a home? The part about someone coming to her bed might be true.

I would call the facility and see if they have security video available.

I'm very much listening to Wade in here, btw.

Peace, my brother.

...your 91-year-old mother called you up, and asked you to make an appointment with the doctor for a pregnancy test, because your dad (who died in 1977) came into her bed two nights in a row, and she wants to know in time in case so she can get an abortion?

(This is a serious question, since it just happened to me.)

I can't imagine those gifts that lady gave you throughout your life. Even my father says I'm too hard a man, and would not be like that if his bride was alive, so I habla.

I see your mom in your soul. You know I have commented in the past about your kind-spirit, that I lack. That's what a mom gives.

Two highly educated individuals. One has a mother, one does not. One goes on to educate and mentor, the other goes on to destroy.

Instead I became, well, something between the loser without skills I think I am and the important educator you think I am. A wuss afraid of heights and crowds who has worried too much about what others think and made far too many bad decisions for all my smarts and caring heart.

And you grew up to serve something higher than yourself, putting your life on the line many, many times in that service, doing what had to be done so the pissants/educators/4Fers like me could do what we do and bellyache about it.

Perhaps we need to take half of you and half of me and get a whole person.

Nah, then we'd have Dakota and where would we be? Addicted to blondes and overly idealistic but idiotic public policy. 🙂

Dakota - you can STFU.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
