    Carousel of Progress

    COP and a big Sinclair dinosaur are all I remember from the 1964 World's Fair. At least I remember the dinosaur being big I was small though. I always dragged my kids on COP now that they are adults I don't think they've been on it in years.

    Wedding gift - gift receipt

    I think you are overreacting. According to what you posted all she did was ask if you had a gift receipt since they got 2 of the same item. Did she continue to bug you asking for a receipt? If she did I could see that would be annoying but if not I don't see a reason for you to be upset. And...

    Jr. High Football

    If you prefer basketball due to the worry of injuries don't count on less injuries. My son played football from the age of 8 through college. Other than soreness the only injury he got was a broken thumb. He got that in practice he was on the line and fell over getting into his stance...

    Kids running through my yard

    From the other responses I guess it depends on your neighborhood. When my kids were young there were kids of all ages and they all would cut through the back yards. I wouldn't have thought anything of it.

    Speaking other languages in public in the U.S.

    The only person I know that is bothered to hear a foreign language is my wacko MIL. She claims it's because her parents were Italian immigrants that would not allow their children to speak Italian outside the home. The reason they said it showed disrespect for America and when you came to this...

    I'm a Worry Wart!

    Maybe she's like my Mom and shuts her phone off after using it. We keep telling her to leave it on but can't get it to sink in. She says I'm not using it why waste the battery!

    Anyone have a backyard pond?

    We have a couple ponds sort of like your picture. The only thing DH does is clean the filter, we don't have to add water unless we're having a drought. We let it freeze over in the winter no heater. I know DH does sometimes poke holes in the ice, I don't know why. Our ponds have goldfish...

    I know it's not listed as one of your choices but I think SSR would be the best choice based on your description. It's close to downtown you can even walk and has the spa.

    NASS to JFK- JetBlue advice

    I'm going to disagree with the pp. I usually wait until 2-3 months out before purchasing tickets. Now I do start checking as soon as I know my dates and if a good fare is there will purchase but if the fares are high I wait.
