    Lore - if you've read any of that thread, you know that it's morphed way beyond questions and into a combo status report, wish list, boast and brag and the occasional actual question. Feel free to post there.

    You were partially right T2, though I found it on a menu here, the Roughy was pretty pathetic. I must give up on trying to order any type of Seafood here in Illinois, it definitely is not prepared well. Man, I miss the east coast. :( Luckily, I will be traveling back to visit family at the end of the month. Can't wait for the Cheesesteaks, Scrapple and Porkroll. Mmmmm, yummy!:)

    dmc: Heh, ok, thanks.
    I did try to read some of it, but wasn't sure what half the posts were about so I gave up and decided not to burst in mid-debate.
    Will post it there. :)

    The only seafood place that's a real cut above in the area (according to all my friends -- I'm not a huge seafood fan) is Bob Chinn's. But's a haul for you -- about an hour and a half (at least).

    That's definitely in driving distance T2. Thanks. I have a Bro just outside of Joliet, he 's a little farther away. I don't mind the drive if the reward at the end is worth it. He was up visiting last week, he brought of some White Fence Farm(?) fried chicken, that stuff is excellent!

    Speaking of beards...I'm currently sporting a full beard because I've just been too lazy to shave for the past 3 weeks. :D

    That's what parents are for Sil, to irritate the heck out of us. It's jsut payback for our childhoods. Don't worry, you get to do it to Ashley too!:D I bet it's a real blast.

    We have a wrist strap for him to stop him running away when he's walking. Today he picked the one person who didn't like kids and ran round his legs until the guy was tied up!

    Is a "wrist strap" a fancy term for a leash?

    I didn't know things like that "wrist strap" are actually allowed to be used on kids... wow. (While the driving force behind the idea is fairly obvious it's still a bit... well, extreme, I guess.)

    [​IMG] Depends if the kid keeps running off or into the road. Sometimes it's better to ensure they stayt close and safe than run off.

    I don't think i could ever use one on my kids. It just feels wrong to me. Of course, I wouldn't put them into a situation where they can run off onto the road until they can understand and handle being there. But, I'm not judging, to each their own. All of us have different ideas on how to raise our wee ones.

    Might be a country/cultural thing. They're very common in the UK but I've never seen them on this side of the Atlantic. Maybe it's a different way of looking at things: parents over there want to get their children out and about, walking around town, while making sure they're safe, whereas over here people would rather not take them out walking at all until they're sure they won't run to the middle of the road.
