  Maybe they want to be the competent one, but I can also see the appeal in someone who is comfortable with who they are and happy to try things they aren't good at.

  We have crab cakes, some snacks you heat in the oven (jalapeno poppers and bean empanadas), tinned fish like sardines and similar, and cheese and crackers.

I knew, in my heart, that if I sold out and worked someplace evil I could have the big money, and what's more, even without doing evil I could have the small money by following the steps - go to school, get a job. I don't feel like younger people have that. It always took some degree of...

  I wouldn't give mine away, and enjoyed parenting more than any other job, but swear to God with every one of them I said that a parent should be provided with about 5 tranquilizer darts for each child when they are born, for the handful of situations that put you in danger of doing something you will regret. With each one, for me there were about 5 times I wished I could just toss a dart and pow! Kid falls down asleep.
