      Thank god I have girls.  My wife handles all that nonsense.  She told my oldest last year when she was 9.  I stayed far away.

        @Matt Girls too.  Mom is handling some, but I’m trying to help…I think??  Just being there, letting her know things are normal and to ask when she has questions.

        No doubt, one of the toughest things I have dealt with…

          Fortunately my oldest is super bitchy so she’s not really into talking to me about that stuff.  8).

          I’m pretty attentive and supportive as dads go but I run from that girl puberty stuff like it’s a wild fire.

            Doesn't bother me. Our son turns 7 soon and I've already explained sex, sexual attraction, conception, and why my wife and I had IVF to conceive him. Neither of us was freaked out, he asked some really interesting questions, and now when other kids in his class want to play mummies and daddies in class, he says no thanks  😃

                It’s on… sounds like a good thing if you all get it at once. Otherwise it drags out. Wishing you all a mild illness and speedy recovery.

                  sigh

                  Less a rant than defeated sorrow for the current and future state of affairs. When discussing the merits of a dry climate here, I present a pretty major downside. My wife is in Santa Fe and I plan on taking our daughter down there to join her for Mother's Day this weekend if there isn't too much PM2.5 in the atmosphere. Fire season has barely started by historical standards, but look at this:

                        Sonic Youth is not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.  That is all.

                            And Dolly Parton is. Not that I have anything against her,but she was 100% right when she declined the nomination.

                              Agreed and agreed.  The CM HOF is a hallowed enough institution and the appropriate place.  Elvis is in the CM HOF.  That’s dumb.

                                Also, why isn’t there a Hip Hop HOF?  I’m assuming there isn’t.  I’ve never actually checked.

                                  The best thing you can do with the R&R HoF is pretend it doesn't exist. It's like those ridiculous Rolling Stone "greatest ______ of all time" lists. We're better than they are so their opinions are moot.

                                  To not have Sonic Youth, Little Feat, and many others in there shows you they don't know their elbows from their assholes when it comes to the subject at hand.

                                  Think it, be it.

                                    @Matt having a Hip Hop hall of fame seems like a disaster waiting to happen. How many rock and rollers (and their fans) have "beef" that gets settled in the streets. Let's have NBA Youngboy or Lil' Yachty get snubbed for best mumble rap of the year.

                                    This is stereotyping at its finest, but I'll stick my neck out for this one.

                                    BTW, I love great hip hop and think a lot of the rhyme schemes, delivery, and beats are genius.
