    Our daughter keeps telling us we should watch that. We just finished watching Vikings.

    Whoa, that's been on almost 10 years and I never heard of it. Is the TV-MA rating for sex scenes or violence, or just bad language?

    Definitely violence, a lot of violence, it was a form of population control back then. There's sex scenes, although not too explicit, some unwanted, and surprisingly not much bad language.

    Winter is certainly broken. Yes, we still can get hit by a massive storm. The reality is it will not stick around. Once the ice is out of the driveway, that will be it for ice accumulations. I should be able to put some iron chairs out without too much concern. Nice to have a place to sit outside and take in the sun. Dog like to have me play ball with him. I toss it up and out, he goes after it and brings it back to me. This goes on and on. Mindless entertainment, but still enjoyable. I am going to try Frisbee with him. I have seen some that are dog friendly so they can pick them up from a hard surface. You have a good week!

    We just bought the Nerf frisbee for our pooch. They were $5 at a local store my wife frequents (not a pet store). So far 2 thumbs up. :thumbs:

    I've been buying the Ruff Dawg flyers for mine for years. They hold up fairly well however after a while, the inside portion always ends up getting torn out. They're sturdy enough that when playing tug of war I can lift a 110-pound Shepherd off the ground. And they fly far!

    I didn't know you could watch them. Are they pay to view series?

    Not pay per view per se, it's "free" on the Prime channel, included my yearly Amazon Prime membership for ordering and I do pay for that membership.

    I've had very good luck with their products. I still have a hard rubber ball from them that is over 11 years old and has been chewed on by Shepherds and has been bounced off every boulder and tree in the area. It's still in excellent condition. Even after the center of the flyer is eventually torn out by the dogs, the ring makes a great tug of war toy.

    This is the current flyer (had to buy a new one since the last one is buried somewhere in a snowbank).

    I'm sorry, I feel it too, it's already started. The song below brings me to tears. It's so hard for a kiddo, between the Covid mess, different views on lockdowns/vacc's/masks, OMG the sexualization of little kids is everywhere. Everywhere. Little girls going through puberty in elementary school. She hears xyz at home and zyx at school, a couple little kids at school are questioning their sexuality and genders (one is a 3rd grader), they accuse each other of being racist. How confusing that must be since none of them even know what sex or racism is?- They just learned to tie their shoelaces a couple years ago! I quit watching the 5 o'clock news several years ago, even that was getting too graphic. All we can do like you've mentioned many times is to guide and teach to raise a strong little person.




    Thank you for those that will suggest I home school, long story short is that is not an option in our situation.

    We're Prime members, but from what I've seen you have to subscribe to Paramount+ for $9.99/month to watch it. Do you subscribe to Paramount+, or is there another way to watch it?

    You're right! I just logged into Amazon and we're paying $5.99/month for it. Oh boy, another reminder for me to get a grip on all the subscription channels we've accumulated since March 2020. yooperdave
