paperduck First, I think its terrific that you're so involved with your children. I also sympathize that its hard to have two in diapers at the same time. You mention that your son is 22 months old- it could be that he's just not ready yet. I drove myself and my son...

Are Indians mad?!?!?

eicher @eicher (509) • France 12 Jan 07

paperduck if not mad then very impractical, if this info is true. If you kill off all of the girls there will be a lot of lonely men in 20 or so years.
