Yes or no to giving kids(like age 3-7) Gatorade? After all, it is basically just sugar and water. Got people coming over and they got kids, and wanna get them stuff to drink, but I clearly know nothing about what kids drink and my house isn't stocked with stuff for kids lol.

Not your decision to make.

If you're concerned about having stuff for the kids just make sure you have choices.

As my Blu-ray library is listed alphabetically, I have Logan and Lucky Number Slevin placed right next to each other. If somebody were to read off the movie titles quickly, "Logan Lucky" would be said out loud.

Kind of a bizarre thing I just noticed, given that Steven Sodebergh's upcoming film has that exact title.

Agreed. If you want to be a good host it's about choices. To cover all bases, you can have milk, some sort of juice (apple and orange are near universally accepted), soda with/without caffeine in it, and bottled water if your tap water is just meh. And maybe some beer/wine for the adults. Maybe also some "purple stuff" and Sunny D so that old commercial could play out for real in your house.

That list pretty much covers you for anything a guest would reasonably ask. Gatorade would be pretty far down my list of beverages to serve a guest, lol, unless we had just had a tennis match or came back from the gym or something.

Do people still buy Hawaiian Punch or Tang? That's all I had in my house growing up since you can buy the big cans at Costco. Get some of that and mix it with sprite. I know kids love that.

Also root beer floats. I don't know any kid that declined a root beer float.

I still buy Hawaiian Punch for myself.

This is a very broad question - but if someone was wanting to earn a degree in the computer field, what route would you suggest?

The world needs programmers today more than any other time (which would be computer science), but god knows you can learn all of that online for free and through loads of practice.

I would say engineering would be the better field if you want to double up on both of them regardless.

Good call. If you really want something fun for the kiddos, a 2 L bottle of root beer and a quart of vanilla ice cream will do a good job of it. Make it in a frosted mug to add some pizazz. This has been your daily dose of Martha Stewart living.

Just came out of Walmart. Playing over the speaker system: Aerosmiths Mama Kin .
Either someone didnt realise what they were doing or someone knew EXACTLY what they were doing.

The way I see it, you gotta say sheeit.
Dont forget to drop me a line.

Yep, use to buy Hawaiian Punch and Juicy Juice when they came in those cheap, big cans. That and Sunny D.

Re: Off Topic 2017: Fallen Kingdom

Funny question that just came up for me that I couldn't answer:

Who do you think is the most successful "Chris" in Hollywood right now? Pratt, Hemsworth, Pine, or Evans?

And I understand that success can be defined so many different ways. You could go the financial route or popular route, who is liked most, carries their films best, etc.

I think I'll go the "household name" route, in which case I'd go: Evans, Hemsworth, Pratt, Pine. Other versions of that list though, of course, I'd probably be finding Pratt on top given the film franchises he's running plus his early success on Parks & Rec.
