Good morning crew,

Yet another weekend gone and I haven't accomplished anything. I have an entire list of projects that have to get done this summer and I haven't even come close to starting them. I'm starting to feel that old anxiety creeping in around the edges of my subconscious again.

On the plus side, I did let the wife completely humiliate me in front of about 500 people on Sunday at her dance recital.

I'll tell you about that later.

Laugh it up,

Joe

My ten-month-old was sitting in her high chair, twisting and moving all over the place. My wife who was trying to feed her said to me, "Straighten her up."

I looked at my daughter and said, "What are you doing with your life? Do you want to be this way forever? It's time to grow up and take some responsibility."

My wife hasn't asked me to help with her since.

I was in a couple's home trying to fix their Internet connection. The husband called out to his wife in the other room for the computer password. "Start with a capital S, then 123," she shouted back.

We tried S123 several times, but it didn't work. So we called the wife in. As she input the password, she muttered, "I really don't know what's so difficult about typing 'Start123.'"
