"THAT was your son?..."
"Yeah."
"OMG, I could be the same age."

"...almost."

Wendy I can totally relate. One day my daughter and I were having lunch and she says to me "so dads on the viagra stuff" I said "yeah, how did you know?" She said " he left it on the counter" I said "yeah, and it works really well". She said "eeeewwww, I was hoping you were going to say someone gave it to him as a joke". Kids, gotta love em.

I find that well , embarrassing for both your son and yourself. Regardless if he only dated her for a few weeks, your son still dated her. Some lines parents should never cross and sharing significant others is one of them

You know, despite the *eww* factor, studies show that children who grow up believing their parents have healthy sex lives, tend to have healthier relationships & sex lives themselves

Yeah, but you know how boring society would be if it had a healthy attitude towards sex?

Sex is hereditary. If your parents didn't have it, you won't have it.

Sorry, this just bothers me. Heinlein was from the mid-20th century. I read way too much of his stuff (almost all of it, most of it multiple times) to let this pass. He died in 1988, and was writing into the 1980's. First stories in the late 30's or early 40's.

No, I didn't cheat... what I've read of his works were mostly pre-1950.
Since I've been accused of cheating even though there are no stated rules (or proof that I did) I withdraw my response and will refrain from answering in the future....

Okay, so now what? Two prizes?

Okay, what's a suitable prize for each? Suggestions? Anyone?

One prize, since I retracted my answer

You can't retract your answer. The rules (I have them right here, wanna see?) prohibit retraction of answers to pop quizzes. Therefore, you will take the prize, dammit, if I have to drive four hours and deliver it...whatever "it" turns out to be.

Ok, let's see the rules so there won't be any doubt. If you drive 4+ hours to deliver "it" then I'd would have to drive "it" for a couple hours to make the trip worthwhile...
