In the end they all get the job done Greg.
Honestly, it's not as bad as it comes off here. The kid pretty much stays out of my way and Cheryl understands the dynamic. She's getting much better at catching her default setting of defending him no matter what. It's a process. we've only been working on it for 9 years. In another nine we should be good.

Well 3 out of 5 ain't bad. My concern is that my life insurance is worth more than I am. And there seems to be a recent stockpile of Visine on hand.

Clue me in about Visine. I've seen this referenced several times recently.

It can kill you. There was a recent case where a woman slipped it into her husband's coffee over a few days. In the end he died. She got 20 years I believe. I don't know how much it takes, but it seemed like a relatively minor amount.
