They know... at least he does. Dbl A had my wife in tears yesterday and was screaming at her in front of my kids. Unfortunately I wasn't there, otherwise I would've kicked him out of our car. Everyone in the family has had him blow up on them. My wife just handles it better than I do, mostly for her mom's sake.

We're kind of trapped because her mom won't leave him, eventhough she's admitted that she's not in a happy marriage. My wife (and I) try to deflect/redirect his anger so her mom doesn't take too much heat. Long story short, he's made it very clear that he'd screw her if she tried to divorce him. He's gone through it 4 or 5 times already (a fact he hid from her, not to mention a kid he had when he was 15), so he's pretty well versed in the "art of divorce."

Anyway, if we ever want our kids to have grandma time, we're stuck dealing w/ him. Good or bad, we put up w/ a lot more BS than we normally would for her sake and the kids.

Back on topic - RWebb, anything you need? If there is, it's probably burried in my garage somewhere. I've got everything from an Edo period Ashigaru set of armor to an ESAB 250 welder in there (somewhere...)
