He did it to himself & we had things to do, so he had to stay awake & deal with it. (all the while complaining & making our lives hell cause we wouldn't let him sleep until about 1pm)We went to a BBQ at our neighbors around 4:30 & I left hubby & the kids there & walked home (2 blocks) at 8 & went to bed around 9pm. They came home shortly after 9. We didn't even watch the fireworks!
Happy 4th Donna. Hang TOUGH, sounds like you are on the right path!

Which is why I cited my sources. That way no blame could fall upon me

So what you're sayin' is that if you echo a mistake, and can attribute it elsewhere, you have no culpability?

Hmmmm, thinking of going into politics?

If you have a bad teacher, you cant be blamed for what you think, even if its wrong. You assume that the people professing to be the experts know what they are talking about. So until you are told otherwise, you assume that what you taught was right.

Apple thanks you.

I remember my dad telling me a few times that I was hard on equipment...went through a lot of shovels using them as pry bars. Having to pay for them finally broke me of the habit.
