tonythetard yeah, there are lots of materials involved.. and most of the stuff is fairly expensive if you want to initate the system at home but as long as you have some of the ideals or some of the concepts in place, your daughter will pick up some of the benefeits......

tonythetard are you kidding me? my daughter's counting down the days until she GETS to go back to this school... she absolutely adores her teacher and the school environment itself (from what we've seen from tours during school hours and whatnot) is just great... I'm sure...

tonythetard I have to agree totally! we (almost) never used "baby talk" around our daughter (she's 4 now) and she has a great vocabulary, and pretty much always has, but I don't think that a 50 word vocabulary is too terribly alarming for a 3 year old, especially if...

tonythetard I dont think people are dying for the beef of others, they died because of religion and their insistance that theirs is the only true way. I have to agree with wolfechu... that's all

I met my wife on a blind date, believe it or not... our friend was supposed to show up and watch a movie with us, but she never showed, and left the two of us alone, which was a good thing, because the attraction was immediate......

I've lost count of how many movies I've seen (heck, I've lost track of how many I own) and there are a few that left lasting impressions on me. I just wonder how many other people have had their life affected (for better or worse)...

tonythetard lol, that's a good image. but it's true. sometimes it seems like the odds are impossible when you have some papers due and you have to finish that last draft, but theres no way you can see to fit in the prof's suggestions, etc... they are great movies too.

tonythetard yeah, it's definately a great movie. I know lots of people made fun of it, but it was easy to do, since lots and lots of people saw it... I hear that the movie (as long as it was) just couldn't fit in everything that was in the book and that the book is really...

tonythetard I think it depends on where you live... I hear that in some cities they are a really big thing, but here where I live most people have never heard of them... The last time they came to play here they played in a little tiny club (but I guess that's pretty much...
