Yeah, I always make mine stay at the table till they're finished. The big boys are no trouble, and never have been, but Max is still crappy at eating food. Anyway, maybe one day he'll be better. He's definitely better than he was.

Plthijinx, I've looked at that; would be around $3,500 to get a second hand engine fitted. It's a subaru.

About 15 years ago a had a Toyota Hiace and the timing gear when Ka-fluey and probably did other damage inside the cylinder head, so I had the whole engine replaced. They installed a 2nd hand engine with reconditioned timing gear for $900. That was last millennium, though, so officially the olden days.

He managed to eat it in about 5 minutes in the end. After looking at it for an hour.

Fully converted campervan, baby, mags, superdark windows ... 20 years old, rust holes you could put your fist through, and the front part of the roof held on with sticky tape.

Did you have a mullet when you were driving it? Did you tie your surfboard to the top? Did you own a mesh singlet?

Parent of my middle school swim team punishing their kid for losing their swim bag by making them miss the meet and write me an email to tell me that. Late the night before the meet after the revised heat sheets are out when apparently the bag has been gone for over a week. They are punishing two whole relay teams. One thing we make clear at the start is if you will miss a meet, we need to know asap and the only excuse for last minute is sudden sickness.

Also, Hector appears to be headed for the last category He doesn't look good this morning

It pissed me off when the inch lost his brand new, worn once, climbing harness but it never occurred to me to keep him back from climbing practice. Indentured servitude, yes, of course, but not having him skip practice.

Plus, in his defense there is strong evidence indicating his mother was actually the one who lost it. and if the kids require a shepherd or chaperone or other watcher it seems that they are ultimately responsible for the comings and goings of their charges.

By high school a simple, nagging, "Did you remember your gear?" ought to suffice, though.

I hope Hector feels better.
