Pineapple on pizza? My 3 year old son loves it. His Uncle Joe got him hooked. And now anytime he comes over we have at least one pizza ordered with pineapple and bacon. My son takes the pineapple off and it's it first, then...

DaddyOfTheRose I first had pineapple pizza when I was doing my internship in nuclear medicine technology in Chicago. One of my roommates had ordered pizza and felt like sharing. Unusual at the time, but I rather liked the sweet paired with ham.

Up for part 6?

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 18 Jul 12

I know I may be alone on this one,but..6 Fast and Furious movies? I think at this point they may just be rehashing an old theme. That is not to say I won't go see it. It is after all Vin Diesel. So will you or won't you go see 6?...

DaddyOfTheRose Movies follow the never-die meme of, "if the last one made money, let's make another." I don't think I've watched all of the movies, but they have a good formula. Cars, pretty women, and bad boy defiance of authority. Pretty easy populist sell, really.

Who else loves Elmo?

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 18 Jul 12

Last night my hubby brought home a comfy pair of sleep pants. They are red and have Elmo all over them. I have to say I think they are cute. My 16 year old niece,15 year old nephew, and of course my 3 yr old son all love Elmo. And...

DaddyOfTheRose Your husband is a very silly man. But, as the proverb goes, "A little nonsense now and then is cherished by the wisest men." Enjoy!

would you blog about your divorce?

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 18 Jul 12

A friend sent me a link on FB this morning. It said house for sale. Since she and I share an interest in looking at homes..what I found was surprising. For sale sign read: Husband left us for 22 year old. House for sale by...

DaddyOfTheRose I believe that, for some people, this behavior is a spiteful attack on the one who wronged them. For others, however, it might be cathartic. Sometimes, when we are upset, we look for someone to share that feeling with even if they may not be able to do...

The recycle cans and plastic bins were everywhere.

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 17 Jul 12

We just returned from a mini vacation. Everywhere you looked the blue recycle bins were there. There was even one in the ladies restroom of the main lodge. I don't really want to think what may have been in that one. The bins...

DaddyOfTheRose Personally, I think recycling should be taken very seriously at campgrounds. The whole reason for being of a campground or public park is to give respect to nature and the natural world. Recycling (or reducing waste to begin with) is one mechanism for doing...

Ok my husband thinks this is strange..I think it is perfectly acceptable.

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 17 Jul 12

We went on a 3 day family vacation. I did most of the packing. Now it has been my experience that when places, restaurants, hotels, and the like serve creamer, it is the plain non flavored variety. I don't care for regular...

DaddyOfTheRose Of course it's perfectly acceptable, whatever gets your engine running at the beginning of the day. For my own part, I often need that caffeine most of all and the various flavorings are less important. I have simple tastes, I guess.

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 2 Dec 10

for lunch? I want a big thick cheeseburger with a side of onion rings. BUT I won't have it. Because I am on a diet. My son wants pizza. But he had a ham and crackers, because mommy didn't order a pizza, or pick up a frozen one at...

DaddyOfTheRose I'd love to head on home for lunch with my family. Probably pick up some Chinese food from the rice house along the way. However, I'll probably sit here at work like an incarcerated inmate until time to go home for the day.

Can people with poor backgrounds shine in the future

hafiz008 @hafiz008 (450) • India 26 Aug 11

Do you think people with poor background will shine in the future. According to me there are the case but it should not go above 30%.most of the poor people think that they are not blessed by God or they do not wish to study. They...

DaddyOfTheRose I think you've probably made too many generalizations without sufficient cause. The rich tend to believe they are rich owing to their own efforts, their family, or sometimes even God's blessing. The poor, so much as I know, don't really imagine that God made...

SIL is telling anyone who'll listen that we're freeloaders!

DaddyOfTheRose The old adage suggests that you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. At other times, we find a suggestion that people will only learn things when they discover the truth on their own. It can be frustrating. Think about it from this...

DaddyOfTheRose A difficult question to answer, probably becoming philosophical quickly. By and large, however, I maintain that life is chance more than choice. I have a specific train of thought behind my answer. People can develop a sense of pride concerning their...

DaddyOfTheRose Talking about your feelings is a good thing even when you must deal with the consequence of hearing your wife's response. You've spoken up for yourself and that's an assertive masculine sort of can-do thing. Guys need that attitude in order to take on the...

Cancer patients don't get chemo?

Is there no end? Charlie Sheen is

ersmommy1 @ersmommy1 (12588) • United States 5 Jul 11

set to do the Comedy Central roast. Why?? At this point I think it is just a need to be in the spotlight. He has said it is going to be "EPIC" My opinion, it's going to be tragic. I think it's sad really! Anyone going to watch?

DaddyOfTheRose I recently lost my taste for him on some level. However, the show "Two and a half men" does make me laugh. I don't know.. I tend to have the expectation that Charlie Sheen is a train wreck in progress and I don't like to watch such things.

DaddyOfTheRose Yes I do. That commercial was quite popular at the time. I found a stuffed Noid in the basement of my grandfather-in law. He keeps everything. This stuffed thing was worn out and ready for the garbage. I am not too fond of Dominos Pizza.

DaddyOfTheRose 50 really isn't that old. I don't watch the show myself. But I wouldn't be surprised that she won. Jennifer Grey was in Dirty Dancing after all.

DaddyOfTheRose I believe that long hair in a young woman signifies health. Long flowing hair can also catch a man's eye. Hair is often styled and implies a woman who takes pride in her appearance. All these signs seems to be indicators for attracting and securing a...
