    *rob*

    ROB!! Hey I was Xena defending you last week! Come on, man!

  2. I hope you all know that I’m kidding with my child rearing tactics.

    Speaking of Parenting.
    If you want to see a movie and cry your eyes out within the first 10 minutes and continue to cry through out the movie. Watch ‘Precious’.
    Great performances by Monique and the lead actress (don’t know her name).
    It was a great movie.

  3. “i dont know a single person, and have never known a single person, to have to work 12 hour days (at ONE job). that’s just absurd and should be illegal anyway.”

    There are many postitions which are 12 hour days..nursing is one. Of course the benefit is only working three days a week. In dire emergency situations, I have seen ICU nurses work 24hours with only 2 hour break. But it would be really tiring to work 12 hour shifts five days a week in any job for sure.
    Years ago I routinely worked 16 hour shifts, but only 2 per week.
    Ask any intern or resident how many hours they work….likely far more than 12 hour shifts.
