Ironic, because all those ugly chicks were afraid of getting pregnant by you!

the worst part was when I received an "All Hands" email about this at work...

depends on how crude you want be... kitty cats and fish are easy targets when put together.

Burying my children... although those flying monkeys are a close second.

Not a problem...

that popped up on your Outlook calendar too?

the good news I just got from the other clinic helper: so he is open to change. I assume I'll be co-running it in about two weeks.

I'm in total agreement. I guess I just need to figure out if this guy is open to change. I'm sure he is an excellent coach for kids at a different level - he just isn't experienced enough with these kids at this age.

apparently you have never had a child before or you would know that wrestling around is one of their favorite things to do.

As opposed to airing my concerns I just thought about inviting the President of the wrestling club to attend as you suggested. Of course, the coach running it is the VP. It is a Howard County rec league deal. There is one other session at a farther location that I am looking into. It would be worth the drive if they do it right there. Here is what we signed up for: “Clinic - 5 to 8 year olds very basic instruction, fun and games and one match at the end of the year.” So, minus the very basic instruction, the fun, and the games - this guy has nailed it.

I'd rather him learn nothing and have a blast, than have him know a perfect double-leg takedown and never put on his wrestling shoes ever again. The water break last night came about 30 minutes in, maybe less. Another 30 minutes passed and Andrew said he was thirsty. I told him to go ask the coach for a water break as a "hint". He actually said "you just had one" and then continued... That is border line moronic. Yeah, 5 year old kids who love to wrestle around want to be hot, thirsty, uncomfortable, quiet, and drilled for 90 minutes. Way to go coach.

I started Andrew in a wrestling clinic and it is clear that the coach has never been around 5 year olds. 90 minutes of high school like practice, no fun, no laughing, no smiling, one water break, standing at attention against walls for 10-15 minutes at a time, doing physically challenging moves that are painful if performed too long (bridging on your head is not pleasant), etc... This guy is going to kill any enthusiasm these kids had going into this. He CLEARLY has never taught this level before as what he is doing is highly inappropriate for this age and skill level. Another parent that helps out with me feels the same way. Kids are already complaining about being bored, etc... I help out on the mat simply because I show up in my wrestling shoes and shorts and just start "helping" the other kids. I see their faces and hear their comments. Do I say anything to him? Do I just pull Andrew out before he learns to hate the sport? Do I stage a coup with the other gentleman that helps out?

better than "herpes"...

your absolutely correct! The spelling around here is rediculous.

Well, at about 11 minutes of actual action per game - it would take a couple of seasons to actually watch 3 hours of football... Now, commercials on the other hand -

I liked it when he 1st came out with it... back in 1995.

"Jacked up" on national television? C'mon TJ - you MUST feel like an ass with that childish bit.

You also said php was a mickey mouse language that had no future. Now it is the standard language for dynamic database driven websites. But, Heh, what do I know. It appears our issue was comment spam in the cookbook. Everything has been running great since I closed it.

were you thinking of me?

FWIW, so far so good.

are they really considered servers if you are just storing your porn on them?

Our cookbook received 629 spam messages yesterday alone. That might be the culprit of the weird spike loads. That is why I am watching the server right now.
