I think I'll choose to be a global warming agnostic then.

I forgot. While everyone believes in the creature from the Black Lagoon and the Loch Ness monster, I am mindful of the fact that many do not believe that Bigfoot exists. I am an Empiricist. I have seen Bigfoot. DS2 and I hiked in the Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest in the Blue Ridge mountains of North Carolina. BTW, if any hikers read this, this is one great hike. The Forest has the largest number of tree species of any area in the US, or perhaps the world, will have to ask DS2. Anyway, we stopped to view a huge poplar tree and less than 50 feet away, standing next to a Eastern Hemlock, was the Foot. He smiled, waved and walked, not ran, away. It still gives me chills to think about it.

And just when I was about to completely give up on you, you redeem yourself.

Look larousse, I just ate & the thought of Tom Cruise & Katie Cruise makes me want to heave.

I'd much prefer the topic of your plumber's interest in you than the new Mr. & Mrs. C.

Really now, do tell.

Other than Casper and the ghosts in "Ghostbusters", I do not believe in them. I believe I had previously established that I am an Empiricist. Okay, ignore list has now grown to 6,554.

No, I think he's trying to impress you by not showing his crack.

Todd is that ignore list huge because of so many ghosts or is me?

Well, the latest 1,000 or so were added because they believe in ghosts other than Casper and the "Ghost Busters" ghosts.

Todd,

How come your ignore list is bigger than the number of MB forum members?

Todd,

Simple math. Some members were ignored twice for multiple infractions. For example, if a member believes in ghosts, Global Warming and does not believe in Superman, they are placed on my ignore list three times. Let me veryify my arithmetic: let's see, 1+1 = 2, carry the nine, add the square root of the perfect prime number, divide by zero - no, wait, that cannot be right... Maybe I won't apply for the mathematician job.

I agree with Pio about your boys being happy to have a sister.

Yes, the circumstances s..k & your H is a nightmare, so is the OW but the child will need all the love she can get.
While I understand this sentiment and no disprespect intended, you have NO IDEA until you have experienced it personally the depth of feeling of betrayal when an OC is involved. Please do not preach to Beth about her COM and OC relationship. It is too soon for that. She needs to grieve and be angry and anything else while she assimilates this new depth of the betrayal.

Thanks. I think...

Talk about a left-handed compliment. Are you really Pio?

FF,

I know that is a serious blow to 2regret and cannot imagine how that must feel. I do have 2 DDs who are very happy they have a half-brother and he is very happy too. Her question was about whether to tell her children. My response was only about them and how I expect they would feel. I don't think it was preaching.

Pio, the thing is a half sibling in this situation is different. This child was born of betrayal to them and their mother. She should not tell her children until that child is proven through DNA that her H is the father. Depending on the age of the children, they should be told age appropriate information about the affair. Children inherently know right from wrong and they KNOW daddy should not have a "girlfriend" (I hate that term). On top of that the pain that Beth is now experiencing is beyond the depths of just the affair. What you "expect" the children to feel in this situation is far different ok? My DD was devastated. I mean absolutely devastated. Why would she feel any other way?
