Parents can't win. If your kid is inside you're a terrible parent because they're not getting exercise and fresh air, and you're contributing to the obesity epidemic blah blah blah.
If your kid is outside running and playing, laughing and having fun, you're disruptive and possibly neglectful. Unless they're only out for ten minutes while you hover like a helicopter every second to make sure no noise escapes their lips, and they don't get a molecule of dirt on them...
Yeah, as you've probably guessed my kids run around outside laughing, climbing trees, and -gasp- getting DIRTY every time the weather is nice.
I sometimes watch TV shows online that are from other countries, and if I am able to watch it before the general US population I am pretty cautious about what I say, or who I say it to.
The worst case of spoiler-entitlement whining I ever witnessed was someone who hadn't watched the second season of a show that was currently airing the FOURTH season. You don't go on a site for discussing a show you haven't caught up on and then blast people for "spoiling" something that aired two years ago. Really.
The two weeks/two days rule seems like a common sense rule for general internet. For sites dedicated to discussing the show, there's usually a dedicated discussion thread with "SPOILER ALERT" as the subject heading, and you don't go there until you've watched, simple as that.
This wildlife sanctuary is not far from me. They have all kinds of animals, from reptiles and primates, to apex predators like the three above. My kids love going there, it's cheaper and less crowded than the major zoo tourist trap in downtown.
I'm in favor of accuracy in labeling. In the US, we have similar regulations. For example, there are certain restrictions on onions that can be called "Vidalia" (only certain varieties, grown in a select geographical area).
So why is it now a big deal for European foods to also have restrictions about foods from a certain geographical region?

Twerking = stupid.
Twerking set to Classical Music = Still stupid.

This "girl" went to the first Transformers feature length film. No, not the recent special-effects bonanza with no plot, the animated one.
My husband loves Transformers, my kids love transformers.
Oh and the reason I saw this page? My GIRLfriends linked it on facebook because they thought it was awesome.
Hmmm... today is my 15th anniversary. Gift idea! ;)
