What song do you have stuck in your head?

I have Eddie Van Halen's rendition of an old Kinks classic running through my mind a lot too. Senior in high school when this one came out, funny how gay Dave looks now. I don't remember him looking that way 40 years ago but he did. Nobody will ever hit as many notes on a guitar as Ed did, he changed the way people looked at guitars.

You know Chrissie Hynde had Ray Davies daughter. Ray Davies and his brother Dave Davies are the Kinks. I was 5 years old when this was recorded and it was very clear the world was changing fast. The 50's and Elvis were old school. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4DV-5d6a5g

How do the British people here feel about Prince Harry marrying a divorced half black American?

And she's a yankee too. Everyone I know that has spent much time abroad says there is a tremendous amount of hate or racism against Americans almost worldwide... can't imagine why. lol

Post closed, thank you for your help

I went to two schools, one was k-6 and the second was 7-12.. the 7th and 8th graders were upstairs away from the older kids at the second school and ate lunch at a separate time and everything. They did a good job of keeping 18 year old boys away from 12 year old girls. But yeah it was a junior and senior high school and the junior high school was the upstairs part for 7th and 8th grade. I always considered that there were 4 years of high school. Freshman, sophomore, junior, senior... your husband's wrong but you already knew that. ha ha ha

He does have a valid point though. In the nearest real city to where I grew up they had "middle schools" that were 7th 8th and 9th, and the two high schools only had sophomores, juniors, and seniors... so it was kind of like that in my city too.

And her dad wasn't invited, it's just not the picture perfect wedding I envision for the royals who spent like $35,000,000 on the whole ordeal. http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity-...

It's more the divorce thing that I was thinking about, the half black is just an anomaly that isn't a big deal these days. I'm old enough that there were white only restaurants and bathrooms when I was a kid so racism was a very big part of my life. Glad to see that's changed. I really liked the American preacher he was the hit of the show I thought! But yeah she wore a white dress down the aisle her second time, that's just not even normal for average people, I would think British royalty would really stick their noses up at something like that.

Most of you know Iโ€™m not much a drinker.

I've met people who where allergic to alcohol, it's not that uncommon. Being a professional drinker I can attest to the fact that water is your savior. I used to get off work at 2 in the afternoon and go straight to a bar to play pool and drink for 5 or 6 hours and get up at 5 the next day and do it all over again. But before I went to bed I would drink at least three full glasses of water, four or five is better. Drink water until you think you are going to puke and you will wake up in the morning feeling fine... works for me anyways.

There was another shooting at a high-school this morning.WTF?!!

And another one yesterday in Santa Fe, Texas. Wow. It's just almost the norm now. And he only killed 10 people. I'm sure I could have walked into my high school 40 years ago and taken out twice that many without even trying. This guy just shot people he didn't like.... ouch.

Anyone here have experience with non-verbal autism?

And I raised 5 kids and the one that spoke the least as a baby is the one who talks the most now. My mom was trying to get me to take her to a doctor to see what was wrong with her the first time she went to stay with grandma for a week. Then the next year when we dropped them off at grandma and grandpa's she called the next day and wanted to know how to shut the little girl up. ha Good luck!

So have you had him tested for autism as well? I guess you know there's a website they advertise all the time here called autism speaks that really goes into a lot of detail about how to help people with autism communicate better. I was just there and the Center for Disease Control says 1 in 59 children is born with some form of autism... that's amazing. On a brighter note they are really trying to focus on more and better ways to deal with it. https://www.autismspeaks.org/
