So I was showing my stepdaughter some old pics from Iraq and in one of the pics I'm cheesing because I had just gotten some mail that had a bunch of porn in it I ordered and I was holding up 2 of the DVD cases in the pic. You can't really see anything really bad on the pics but I tried to click past it really fast, and she started laughing because she totally knew what I just did. Epic parenting fail.

Speaking of male reproductive organs I just got back from the doctor. I know doctors are professionals but I still feel really awkward when I pull out my penis for someone to look at.

RU a never nude?

I think having a vagina generally sucks more all-around than having a penis. Maintenance on those things is a b****.

 

I think this conversation is teaching me that hermaphrodites have it worst.

Ames got f***ed. Worse than 93

I was in Ames that summer. Spent some time sandbagging on the Skunk River. That was fun. Not.

 

Is it really worse than that? The national news was in Iowa for like a week in '93 (I mean like, the 6pm NBC news was live from Des Moines), entire towns were wiped off the map, it was the worst flooding they had ever seen, etc.

Water crested higher on the skunk yesterday. Just dropped faster.

CNBC just flashed the stat that a child born to middle class parents is expected to have an average of $286,050 spent on it by age 17. That does NOT include college. A family with two kids is expected to cost $600,000 during the same time period.

So, the 2nd kid not only costs more than the first, it also very conveniently decides to cost the exact amount required to bring the total to exactly $600k? Man, those 2nd kids must be really good at math.

I don't trust those figues. Those costs have to include stuff like baby furniture, bottles, strollers, clothes, diaper bags, etc... All stuff that can be used/passed on to the second child.

I'm curious what that factors in. That seems a bit high to me. That's roughly $16,826.47 per year (1402.37 per month). Is it assuming private schooling? If so, that MAYBE i can see where that might be right since the school my daughters will be attending when they start school is roughly $3200 a year.

Jeez, I'd be ecstatic if I was paying only that much for school/daycare. I can't wait until kindergarten starts and we can start using some of that property tax money we've been paying.

Well, childcare is crazy expensive. We decided to go the "friends and family" route. It only costs us about $600 ($75 a day) a month for two kids (my mom has them twice a week, free. I am off one day during the week. We pay sitters for Monday and Friday). Once my oldest is eligible for full day 3 year old preschool next year, I am enrolling her at $351 per month.

Here is the original article that I found

A Child Born in 2009 Will Cost $222,360 to Raise According to USDA Report

 

 

WASHINGTON, June 9, 2010 -- Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack today released USDA's new annual report, Expenditures on Children by Families, which finds that a middle-income family with a child born in 2009 can expect to spend about $222,360 ($286,050 if inflation is factored in) for food, shelter, and other necessities to raise that child over the next 17 years. This represents less than a 1 percent increase from 2008, the smallest increase this decade, which likely reflects the state of the economy. Expenses for child care, education, and health care saw the largest percentage increases related to child rearing from 2008, whereas expenses on transportation actually declined. This decline in transportation expenses on a child mitigated the increases in the other expenses.

 

This report, issued annually since 1960, is a valuable resource to courts and state governments in determining child support guidelines and foster care payments. For 2009, per child annual child-rearing expenses for a middle-income, two-parent family ranges from $11,650 to $13,530, depending on the age of the child.

 

The report by USDA's Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion notes that family income affects child rearing costs. A family earning less than $56,670 per year can expect to spend a total of $160,410 (in 2009 dollars) on a child from birth through high school. Parents with an income between $56,670 and $98,120 can expect to spend $222,360 and a family earning more than $98,120 can expect to spend $369,360. In 1960, a middle-income family could have expected to spend $25,230 ($182,860 in 2009 dollars) to raise a child through age 17.

 

Housing costs are the single largest expenditure on a child, averaging $70,020 or 31 percent of the total cost over 17 years. Child care and education (for those with the expense) and food were the next two largest expenses, accounting for 17 and 16 percent of the total expenditure. The estimates do not include the costs associated with pregnancy or the cost of a college education. In addition, some current-day costs, such as child care, were negligible in 1960.

 

The report notes geographic variations in the cost of raising a child, with expenses the highest for families living in the urban Northeast, followed by the urban West and urban Midwest. Families living in the urban South and rural areas have the lowest child-rearing expenses.

 

One bright spot is that expenses per child decrease as a family has more children. Families with three or more children spend 22 percent less per child than families with two children. As families have more children, the children can share a bedroom, clothing and toys can be handed down to younger children, food can be purchased in larger and more economical packages, and private schools or child care centers may offer sibling discounts.

 

The full report, Expenditures on Children by Families (2009), is available on the web at www.cnpp.usda.gov.

You guys are too funny.

 

It does have its advantages though.

 

The ability to control men's minds and rule the world? I saw that documentary on sperm on NatGeo.

I'm finally back on the internet.

 

Squaw Creek, the one next to campus, crested less than a half foot off the 1993 high, while the Skunk crested a foot over the 1993 high.

 

We are without drinking water for a week.

Courtesy of Cracked.com... Animaniacs was a kids' show kind of but not really. This is about the most blatant dirty joke I've ever seen in a cartoon that wasn't intentionally (ostensibly anyway) intended for grown-ups.

That was a brilliant show, I remember it fondly from my childhood. Closest thing to classic Looney Toons that you can find.

So over the weekend, went with my family, including our daughter, to one of these suburban town festival things. Rides, games, parade, music, food, etc., the usual stuff. Anyway, there's one ride that is playing particularly loud music, and as I'm standing there watching my kid go around on some other ride, I notice the loud one starts playing the Bloodhound Gang. Specifically, that song where the chorus is "you and me baby ain't nothing but mammals...", and well, you probably all know the rest. And I mean, this wasn't an edited version - this had all the lyrics, blasting out over about eight bazillion kids. I'm looking around, and I swear, I think my wife and I were the only ones who noticed that this was a little odd. How did no one else notice this?
