Stick it where the sun dont shine is a common phrase. Perhaps hcross meant under the porch? Under the trees? Anywhere the sun dont shine.

Helen,
A politician could say a lot of things, clean living, healthy eating, exercise, hard work, good parenting, brains, strong morals, discipline, lots of sleep, etc. and the audience would all nod their head in approval. When he'd get to the point where he'd say, "Good genes" you'd probably see the audience flinch and you'd see reporters scribble in their note pads.
How do you grade 'good genes'? What do you do if the genes don't measure up to your specifications of 'good'? Just scratch them off as genetically inferior?
See what I'm gettin at?

I used to have really rotten looking jeans. The more gross, the better. Then I grew up and put on a business suit.
Then I stuck them where the sun didnt shine (in the trash can under the porch).

hepburn,
Now, we all know where the sun don't shine and it's not under the porch.
About your jeans...are you on the wrong thread or something?
uaru,
I know what you mean before you 'splain it.

Sweat pants are more my style. Low in the fashion scheme, but high on the comfort level.

Hepburn,
You edited your post. Now, I understand the relevance of your remark. But it still doesn't float. Under the porch is not where the sun don't shine. You know that!!!

I agree with uaru. I knew a couple that were complete dumb-bells. I even cringed when they were talking about having children. Well, they have 2, and they're both as smart as can be. Go figure.

Codassaurus summed up parenting in the thread, Killing Time, last page.
He stated, "There is no Parenting 101 textbook. What there is, is simply what you are. You are not merely passing your physical genes on to the next generation. You are also passing on your moral and mental upbringing as it was formed from early on and as your life's experience unqiuely sculptured it."
One of my children wrote such a textbook while she was working at Yale;
A Child Psychology textbook.
And here I am...unable to spell.
But, if codasaurus is right, I must have contributed a little something.

I edited to add the second paragraph, Helen. I say "stick it where the sun dont shine" all the time, and I know it doesnt mean under the porch MOST of the time. It was just alittle support for hcross, is all. Sometimes it gets a ridiculous one-sidedness in here.
edited to fix spelling.

I was just teasing...Stick it where the sun

Now we have the ultimate clarification
of the genetic feature which produces superior children such as Chelsea. It must
be a Democratic gene. LoL

I wouldn't worry about that cliche. It has lost it's punch along with the one about
panties in a bunch. Try to think of something more original. That might help.

hcross,
There you go again with that old cliche.
Why are you not listening to me when I give you such good advice.
I noticed that you did add a smiley face so
I'll give you credit for some improvement.

Because this time, believe it or not, I was actually just joking with you. I will never be friendly, but every now and then, I do have moment, it too shall pass.

Who said I was a Republican? I considered my vote the lesser of two evils. I would have preferred Ross Perot, he is a crazy little sh*t and would be in there kicking a$$ and taking names. I love that little sucker, he made Clinton look like a fool at the debates and if he hadn't lost his mind before the end he would have made it to the White House.

I liked Ross Perot too hcross, but always wondered when he found time to impliment anything because he was so busy talking about HOW he would impliment things. But I guess when you're in the White House, you don't have to actually DO anything yourself.

If Ross (little man) Perot made Clinton look like a fool in the debates, why, pray tell was Slick Willie elected to not one, but two terms of office?
And where is pointey ear Perot today?? Somewhere off jabbering to himself. Oh yes, I forgot, Perot's "movement" gave the people of Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura *snicker*
