Euless makes list of “best, most affordable towns to raise kids” by BusinessWeek magazine

Pavel Lishin, says:

When I have kids, I'm going to choose their high school based on their football standing.

Seriously, though, I hope my hypothetical children love chess. I'm going to cry if I have to sit through four years of football.

Scott Doyle, says:

Pavel, I simply hope your hypothetical children live long enough to attend high school...much less remain healthy enough to play a contact sport.

Pavel Lishin, says:

Scott, you're a genius. I'll ensure my kids don't force me to sit through boring sports by malnourishing them! Looks like calcium deficiency's gonna become a family tradition.

Travis Bush, says:

"But our criteria helped us find ethnically and culturally diverse places with the kind of amenities that are more often found in population centers."

Euless?

Scott Doyle, says:

Well Mr. Lishin, I figure there's a reasonable chance you'll knock up an asian...meaning lactose intolerance is more likely than otherwise and calcium from dairy is out of the question. Steady ramen diet won't help matters, leaving beets as their sole source. With your history of not bothering to obtain health insurance - they're in for a grind.

Travis Bush, says:

Doyle..one also assumes that Pavel will use at least a couple of the children for unethical medical experiments. They will either turn out like LOTR golems or Mary Shelley's monster, so they have a 50/50 chance of excelling at sports.

Scott Doyle, says:

Depends on your interpretation of "ethical", T-Bush.

Pavel Lishin, says:

Please, I'll use the neighbor's children for any unsavory medical experiments.

I wonder how many rats you can hook up to a person's circulatory system before their additional livers allow someone to drink with no fear of cirrhosis...

Scott Doyle, says:

We all know you'll revert to your own when you run out of neighborhood children, sir.

Travis Bush, says:

That or he will move to Euless where the kids are cheaper...

Jason Rice, says:

Can we please request a moratorium on the idea of Pavel reproducing.

Pavel Lishin, says:

If you guys want, you can have a fundraiser to pay for my vasectomy, but I'll just take the money and go on a week-long bender in Canada.

Scott Doyle, says:

I vote we have a fundraiser for straps strong enough to hold you down while med students perform a complimentary vasectomy during training.

I'll be sure to throw in extra for a device to keep your eyes open through the duration.

alexander troup, says:

I vote for a fundraiser too, while it may be for prostrate removal....could someone please bend over...A.T, Fundraiser.
