 dad used to say, hey, whatever you're thinking of doing, I either did it or thought about doing it too. That's the good thing about parenting. Whatever you can get into, for the most part, your parents have thought about it too. One part of your house doesn't get the attention it needs until it's too late, the rain gutters. They get the attention only when there's a problem, when they're clogged from leaves or whatever else fell into them. In my case, wiffle balls.
