First I have. But if it's King then I would probably hate it.

Hay Taig........... How goes it?
Pretty well.
Got home, ticked off my son's friend's mother, dropped my son off at band for the away game, ate dinner with my wife and daughter, warted 3 episodes of Castle, picked up my son, then caught up on the 714 posts here.
How are you doing?

King is like flipping a coin. Some of his stuff is awe inspiring. Other is thoughtless hack writing that I wonder if I practiced more if I could not but do better.
I feel much the same about Mellencamp save that I couldn't sing my way out of a wet paper bag.
A single coked out orangutan with dyslexia could do better that some of his stuff.

King seems to get a pass from editing. Unfortunately, that means a lot of his flaws show up in his more recent books. He can't end a story at all (I'm looking at you, Dark Tower series!)

Parental controls on the PS3 are your friend.
Edit - So is removing the power cord before you head to bed.
Edit II - OTOH, I do not know if parental controls actually prevent playing a game.

Yesterday my kids went to the local corner store. A little Hispanic shop with ice cream. The first time they left it took all of 5 minutes. The second, when I needed to leave, they were gone 30 minutes. I went down and stuck my head into the door and did not see them. The wife came by in her school bus saw me panicking and drove around for a few minutes she had, saw them and sent them home.
When My oldest was about 4 and we were gaming, he and my friends daughter, who we all just checked on, walked out the back door and down the road to go to "quicktrip because that is where soda pop is at, and we is thirsty." Since then I panic easily.
Today they left while I was at work to go to Alabaster Caverns with the boy scouts. All but had a anxiety attack about it when I knew they were about to go. They have been twice already and I should not freak but yeah. I took a minute and called then I was alright.
Wife and I went out to dinner and are catching up with TV showings.

I only experienced the panic of "Where is my child?!?!!?!?" once when we were visiting friends, and me and the other dad were left with the children. We played on the Playstation and my 4 year old daughter got bored, so she visited the neighbors. To do this, she had to unlatch 2 gates.
My wife was not pleased.

I might just do it though. Almost dying makes you a little nuts.
It was more the seizure after the fact, mixed with the epi and whatever they put me on to get the swelling down and me conscious.
Yay.
I hate to hear you had that trouble, Mac.
When I read your post earlier at work, I had no idea that "epi" was short for epinephrine until I got home and saw Treppa's post.
If Jenny KOs your boss, I want to see pics.

I was going through a divorce at the time and the neighborhood had a lake at the other end. I was 1/2 worried about him dieing when he crossed the busy major street in the dark and/or in the lake. and 1/2 worried that this would cause me to loose my kids to my psycho ex. A nice family saw them playing in a ditch on the way to the store and called 911 and stayed with them. The police had our phone call and could add so they brought them to us.

Watching Chasing Mummies and I will now have to make Aurochs mummies and minotaur mummies in a game.
Somehow, the Terror Birds got me onto Aurochs today. Megafauna that existed until as recently as 1647, it's legacy only exists today in cattle. Heck's Cattle are pretty close though.

That reminds me that I want to work on my Abadon-styled update to the stench kow.
Also, is anyone else getting a weird thing where the url gets corrupted in a response?

I thought that was a polite way of saying Hell's Cattle.
EDIT: url problem is apparently a badgers-only bug.

The closest I've ever come to that panicked moment was when my girlfriend (at the time) came to visit with her two boys. We went to the mall and her youngest (who was 10) wandered down a side aisle away from us and she started REALLY freaking out (now, she was always worried about her ex taking the kids, but he was over 1000 miles away). To find him, I told the older boy (who was 12) to go down the one aisle and head to the exit, looking for his brother. It was a department store, so I was able to keep an eye on him (since he was tall for his age) while we took the other aisle. Easily enough, we found his brother in about two minutes, who got a bit of tongue-lashing for wandering off.
Of course, when she dumped me for another guy she'd been cheating with a few weeks later, she made sure to bring that up that I put her oldest son "in danger" and that was one of the reasons that she was dumping me.
