QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Feb 13, 2012 -> 12:15 PM) I'm a couple episodes behind on Shameless, but I think it's as good if not better than last season. Frank is such an incredible low-life, but then he shows the occasional (very occasional) flash of being human. William H. Macy plays that role so well. It's actually feeling a little slow to me. It's lacking some bite, I actually wish Frank would die. I know that he is technically the protagonist, but still. Was Jeremy Allen White told that he would spend all season brooding, smoldering, drinking, smoking, raging and wearing the same clothes the whole time?

Nirvana Unplugged is phenomenal.

After their first three albums, I lost interest.

The worst thing for me is when they're sick. You feel completely helpless. The best thing for me is being called "Daddy." That owns.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 13, 2012 -> 10:33 AM) My wife and I are 4 months away from our first (a boy). Spent 4 hours at Buy Buy Baby (Bed, Bath and Beyond for babies/kids) registering for stuff yesterday. Except for laughing at the hilarious clothes (e.g., a blue onesie with a tie imprinted on the front), it was pretty f'n brutal. $500 bucks for a crib, $180 for the mattress, and another $120 for a whole set of sheets/bumper things? Are you s***ting me? Needless to say, i'm about to be way, way, way overwhelmed. Luckily my wife seems more and more ready every day. Buy lots of diapers and wipes. You can never have enough wipes.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Feb 12, 2012 -> 08:21 AM) Condoms and birth control. /Thread I had my son and had a vasectomy. This thread should be about parenting for people who currently have children.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 12, 2012 -> 08:22 PM) As someone who may be deciding to have kids soon, I feel like a thread like this will make me regret that decision. Especially with the internet, it feels like the complaing about the kids is way more prevalent than the enjoyment of having kids. That about sums it up. I love my son more than anything and he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It is a rewarding experience, it's just not easy and it is the hardest thing you'll ever do.

I think this could be helpful. We can share home remedies and all sorts of things to help each other out.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Feb 10, 2012 -> 08:06 AM) I just finished "Before I Go to Sleep" by S.J. Watson, an amnesia story that I got in part because one of my favorite authors, Dennis Lehane, reviewed it as "Memento on crystal meth." Never having tried crystal meth, I can't specifically comment as to that, but I thought it was interesitng and suspenseful, albeit a bit "chicky" given its female main character/narrator. I liked "11/22/63" better. Got it, haven't read it yet.

QUOTE (shipps @ Feb 11, 2012 -> 09:44 AM) Thanks guys! (Rob Lowe voice) I have LITrelly grew up through every stage of my life here on soxtalk. Welcome to the 30's. Who the f*** are you again?

Hope he likes the Pioneer League.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Feb 7, 2012 -> 12:28 PM) There is ONE show and its Glee, which is terrible. Just the worst. I hate it with a passion. It in no way represents the reality of "theatre people". Smash does - which is cool to watch. I will admit that those not in the theatre industry may not give a s*** one way or the other. One thing we can agree is fabulous...Katherine McPhee has an outstanding booty. And eyes you can go swimming in.

The big board is coming soon...

QUOTE (CWSpalehoseCWS @ Feb 4, 2012 -> 02:47 AM) Other than having a cool last name, this move is not of any importance, but the Sox resigned RHP Matt Zaleski. Even as a Charlotte/Birmingham filler, this make little sense to me. I already figure both of those clubs have full rotations. He's an all purpose guy. He can start and throw 7 innings, or he can be a swing man, long reliever or whatever. He has value at AA and AAA.

I'm just not interested in musicals or anything in that vein.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Feb 6, 2012 -> 09:52 PM) Obligatory shout out for Smash, since it's, ya know, my industry. This is what I do on a day to day basis. lol That's fine for you, but, no. There's enough singing and dancing on TV as it is.

Cespedes' swing looks just like Viciedo's.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 11:15 PM) Hell, I hope to live to see age 68. The males in my family have a bad track record of that. Live, Gerry. Live, dammit.

Anybody else see Madonna almost fall down?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 11:09 PM) And I'm sure he'd trade all three to have his wife back. I would hope so.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 04:19 PM) Don't enjoy commercials the only time of the year that they're bearable, or else you're a corporate sheep. Seriously? Maybe 15 years ago, now they're just unbearably stupid.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 5, 2012 -> 05:50 PM) Totally un-Patriot like start here. This idea that they are perfect needs to die.

Sorry about his wife, but he still has three trophies.
