I actually prefered Fraiser. The differences between Him and his brother and their father cracked me up all the time. Daphne just got funnier. I got a ittle fed up towards the end of Frasier and his relationship anxiety.I liked Cheers better. Frasier was a bit more heavy-handed and milked situations to the point of exasperation. IMO.
Me too. We are being told Arctic air has left Ireland. At this stage I'm afraid to believe it.Half way through the month of February and it seems spring will be one day closer. I am so weary of winter.
Just don’t send it over my way to Canada please as it’s cold enough here already!Me too. We are being told Arctic air has left Ireland. At this stage I'm afraid to believe it.
Yikes! Glad he and y'all were ok! Sorry his drawers were not!Parents, please talk to your teenagers about not driving while distracted, and driving at a safe speed.
This morning while driving my daughter to school, I heard the squeal of brakes, and looked into my rear view mirror just in time to see the teenager driving directly behind me struggling to regain control of the very large Suburban he was driving. At one point, the rear end of his vehicle skidded into the other lane. Thankfully, he did regain control and avoided an accident, but speeding in traffic is not cool and someone could have been hurt.
Judging from the expression on the kid's face, he was in need of some clean underwear.
I'm starting to point those kinds of things out to my 13 year old son as we're driving around since he'll be going for his driving learner's permit here in a year or so. I'm trying to make him start paying attention to all the distracted drivers at an intersection and even while you're doing 70mph on the freeway. My overall strategy is to get him looking at the flow of traffic and increase his situational awareness way before he starts actually driving in order to make him better understand how damn dangerous driving is. Not looking forward to adding him to my auto insurance policy eventually...lolParents, please talk to your teenagers about not driving while distracted, and driving at a safe speed.

My biggest thing with freeway driving that I told my kid -- look way ahead. Don't just look at the car directly in front of you. If you see way ahead that cars are braking, be ready.I'm starting to point those kinds of things out to my 13 year old son as we're driving around since he'll be going for his driving learner's permit here in a year or so.

EXACTLY. I've told him to constantly try to stay 3 or 4 mental moves ahead of traffic. Ask yourself what you would do if "X" car did "Y". What would you do? You have to have such a pro-active mentality on the road and I have no idea how to impart that to a young driver. It would be so nice to have a driving simulator you could program with different scenarios at home you could practice with your child and have realistic outcomes to make them think.My biggest thing with freeway driving that I told my kid -- look way ahead.

And, we are not the Blue Angels out there on the road. We have not practiced tight formations with total strangers. When idiots want to pack up, let them. I tell him to back off those groupings of Nascar wannabes.
There are many apps to help with driving.EXACTLY. I've told him to constantly try to stay 3 or 4 mental moves ahead of traffic. Ask yourself what you would do if "X" car did "Y". What would you do?

May she be guided to a good decision.Had my bosses come in today and have a difficult discussion with one of my employees. She's been given two options. She can either accept a reassignment (that's not ideal for her) or she's gonna be laid off. This decision has been made over my head and above my pay grade, but it's still rough. She's not too happy with any of us right now, but my regional gave her until Monday to make a decision. I can only hope she makes the decision that's right for her.
May she be guided to a good decision.
