    'scuse me while I scamper down a bunny trail, but WHY did someone come up with a She-shed?! Personally, I think it's ridiculous...AND do you know how HOT it would be in one of those things during the middle of the Summer?! Just let the fellas have their man-cave...we get the rest of the house.


    carry on...

    It's nuts. I went to a concert in Marin Co a very exclusive neighborhood in San Francisco a few years back.

    It was held at a very liberal mainline church

    They had the pastor ( a woman) get up and do the opening prayer. She started out by saying "DEAR PARENT"

    I about gagged
