    Babies laughing is one of the best sounds in the world.

    Mom and dad gotta hang onto that recording. It'll give them something to remember when those babies are 15, and all they get from the little darlins are scowls and disgusted looks.

    Well, Joe, at least you're not a part of one; a commentor on that linked site also felt the same way.

    Don't need to. Anything more would be a waste. I don't drive a fancy car either. We eat well, travel allot. Have a descent house and no credit card debt. If you want to have kids go ahead. I have found no use for them. Funny how all the relatives and friends with kids call us and say "we need a break can we come over?"

    I guess it wouldnt be up to you to much now would it? ;)

    How can you find no use for kids... that is about as dumb as saying Grill Socks for speakers are a gimmick...

    I thought Id go ahead and state the obvious... "Kids replinish the population."

    Dosnt get much more useful than THAT buddy.

    Yes but if you ask them if they could go back and have a choice to have kids or not, 90% of the time(yes, there are some people that just can't keep it in their pants:p ), the would still have kids. Some parents are very proud to see their child grow up to be successful and know that they worked hard to get their child that far. You are seeing it the wrong way, having children is far, far more than changing diapers. you are just too much of a ****(demi's favorite word;) ) to take up the challenge.

    I don't have kids yet, I'm only 21. But I'm not planning to not have kids because I'm too afraid of changing diapers, disipline, etc.

    Kids are not in my near future. I have too much fun to experience and too many career goals to accomplish. No effing way I would bring a child into this world without being absolutely financially and emotionally ready. With that said, no effing way I would want any girl i've dated thus far to bear my children!!!

    I see uptoyoujoe's point, but his method of stating his opinion was a bit harsh. Just say...kids are not for me and my girl and leave it at that.

    I could truly have a field day here, classic fixation, an awful lot of unfinished business that never quite got cleaned up, now its too late to get the hands dirty.

    Imagine living a life where you have to go someplace new to enjoy yourself.

    Imagine living a life never being able to experience an ordinary wonder through a child's eye.

    Imagine those people who desperately would love to have a child and cannot.

    Can you imagine a world without children? If so then I suspect the end is near.

    P. Diddy Designs Studpidly Fancy Car
    Thursday June 12, 2003 @ 04:30 PM

    Rapper/boastful millionaire P. Diddy is once again venturing into the world of design. This time, rather than showcasing on the runways, P.Diddy’s merchandise is better suited for the highways. Diddy has begun a partnership with Lincoln to design his own Limited Edition Sean John Lincoln Navigator SUV. The vehicle will cost a hefty $85,000 and only 100 of them are being produced. The fancy car will be available for sale on July 1.
    This isn’t your regular run of the mill truck, either. This special edition SUV will have a whopping six TV monitors inside to complement the three DVD players and a Playstation 2, along with a Pioneer Premier Audio System with satellite radio to boot. Along with all of the entertainment goodies there are also special features employed in the design of the car, like logo-embossed leather seats, custom tinted windows, black chrome detailing and a platinum coated logo emblem.


    Yep, people see me driving one of those big "fancy" cars and they might just think I'm ..... well ...... one of "them" and not like me and you. You know ..... like "us".

    Up2youJoe wrote:
    We eat well, travel allot.

    Good idea. That way you're always one step ahead of the process survers.

    BTW, I assume you meant "travel a lot".

    "allot" means something entirely different.

    Allot/
    [uh-lot]

    –verb (used with object), -lot‧ted, -lot‧ting.
    1. to divide or distribute by share or portion; distribute or parcel out;
    apportion: to allot the available farmland among the settlers.
    2. to appropriate for a special purpose: to allot money for a park.
    3. to assign as a portion; set apart; dedicate.

    [Origin: 1425–75; earlier alot, late ME alotten < MF aloter, equiv. to a- a-5 + lot lot (< Gmc) + -er inf. suffix]


    See what I mean ? I can't really see you traveling a lot and distributing money, or alloting money for a park or something.
    Because, as you and I both know, they use parks a lot.

    Listing a mine shaft as your residence must make it pretty difficult to get a credit card, I imagine.
    You might try "Radio Shack" or "Sears". I don't think they're that particular.

    Not trying to be judgemental or anything, but if all those relatives and friends have kids and need to come to YOUR house for a break, well ....... uhm ....
    ....they must be some pretty self-centered socksuckers.

    Hey, here's a thought ! Maybe if you let those folks know that they have this thing out now called "Organized Sports". It's where kids get together along with .....and this is the cool part ..... their PARENTS and have a good time. Pretty neat stuff.

    If they're not into organized stuff, well ...... how about fishing ? Hunting ?
    Hiking ? Biking ? Boating ? Crafts ? Spelunking ? Ham radio ? Model rocketry ? Treasure hunting ? Photography ? AUDIO ? Gardening ?
    Woodworking ? Dumpster diving ? Swimming/scuba diving ? Bird watchiing ?
    Railroading ? Comic books ? Stamp/coin collecting ? Painting ? Music ?

    ....I dunno. Maybe you're right. Why would any parent want to do any of those things with their kids when they they can "take a break" over at your house.

    Wait a second, I've got it !!!

    Those friends and relatives with kids ARE doing those things with their kids and, of course, having fun. Maybe so much fun that they need to rest up a bit, so to speak, so where's the best place in town to get away from fun and excitement ?

    You got it, Toyota: Your house !!!


    Whew ! Glad we cleared that up !!


    .....say, about that thing about having kids with your wife and all ..... uh ...
    ...you don't have ..... like ..... any pictures of your wife do you ?
    NOT that I'm considering your generous offer, mind you, but .... just curious.
