I just had a ridiculous conversation with my father

Him: Here, sign this
*tax form*
Me: You did my taxes?
Him: Yes, so now just sign.
Me: Okay, no, you're going to talk me through exactly how you did this
Him: Why?
Me: Why? Because someday I'll be 30, and by then, I refuse to have a business degree, six credit hours of accounting, six credit hours of finance, and two years of tutoring in accounting under my belt and have my daddy doing my taxes for me.
Him: But it's just easier if I do it for you.
Me: :rolleyes:

He never did talk me through it because he said Maryland is changing all of their forms, so he may as well show me next year. Also, why did they not teach us this stuff in school?

When my kids were young we were told to always have them on their stomachs. Being on their backs really is counter-intuitive considering babies are little vomit machines. To me spitting up while on their backs was very dangerous from choking to inhaling into their lungs. But, I guess going on their back has eliminated a number of SIDS victims. Don't know how, but, if it works that is great.

Yea, I remember propping them on their sides, as we were told about the choking on their backs, and the snarfing it back up and choking on it if they on their tummies. They all survived. Who really knows...?!

Haha sounds like you’re addicted now!

Hahaaa...!!!
I've loved cars all of my life...I know about compression ratios, degrees of crankshaft timing before TDS (top dead center), camshaft timing, etc.
I just never got into NASCAR. I was more into drag racing stuff. You know, hop it off the line and straight line it for a quarter mile. Instant fun...!!!
But, I'm finding I am getting attached to a little NASCAR as I get older...!!!!! :joyfull:

They now have a new, supposedly more effective, Shingles vaccine. It requires two injections instead of just one. I haven't had one yet, but, intend to do so on my next Doctors visit.

Is anyone else as old as me and remember going to public places and getting Polio Vaccine shots. I was young, but, it seems like that required more then one. I'm thinking three over a period of time, but, I really don't remember clearly. At the time, anyone coming at me with what seemed like a 6 foot long needle was one to many. Now needles are so small and sharp that you really don't even feel them, back then the technology was a lot more primitive and there were many dull ones (I think they reused them a lot too.) I even had one break off in my arm when I was about 10 years old. That wasn't pleasant.

I remember getting a polio vaccine with red meds in a sugar cube. :cyclops:
Never got polio.
