So, do any of the rest of you find it amusing that the first two topics (at this posting--they change a lot) were titled 'grr' and 'ug'?  At first glance, we seem to have some sort of caveman theme going on under this heading.

It's all Saints fault, so i'm guessing that he is starting to degenerate into a savage (due to 3 children? Being around just one tends to drive me around the bend almost instantly so he must be going crackers over there).
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

*laugh*

I think it's all the unleashed, unrepentant feminity he's suffering from. Retreating to his caveman roots is a defense mechanism.

"feminity," lol.
we first took that to mean inside me. My wife points out that:

There's not much feminity inside you.

If, however, you meant surrounding me, with three daughters and a wife in the house, yes, that's why i've been trying to get the kids to look at D&D and Star Wars books, and get really excited about dragons. I'm working up to Bruce Lee flicks and hockey games.

Okay, I realize that we can't all be great spellers, but it's actually femininity, just for the record. Every now and then I just have to speak up. It would have been the apostrophes in all the plural words yesterday, had I had enough energy to bother to post, but this gets it instead. I've had borderline bronchitis for about 2 weeks now and it's driving me crazy. Can't sleep, but need to, and coughing all the time, these deep hacking icky coughs. Can't exercise, because I'm sick, so of course I feel even less healthy... Ug... (to use a recently-referred-to term).  :'( :P

Man!! I spelled it that way first, but it looked wrong.

I'm sorry your feeling sick Stacer. Consider this me sending you some good health (as sending good health is more useful than sending wishes for good health)
