Sorry for the crappy link. But this article makes it sound like the subsidies lower the overall price of corn, and in turn HFCS and grain-fed animals' meat. Too bad insulin isn't also made from corn.

Not a question, but just wanted to say that Perfect Strangers was one of the first shows I watched when I moved to the U.S. when I was seven (that and Bosom Buddies). Thanks for helping me learn English, and for giving me the impression that all single men lived with a male pal a la Bert and Ernie.

What was life like before the conflict started? And what was it like when the trouble began? Did it happen suddenly or slowly?

You are so fuckig hilarious. I don't think I've ever audibly laughed during an AMA.

Also you sound (type) just like your MBFGW character spoke. In the movie you seem so genuine and not like you're "acting" at all. Did you really have to "act" during the movie or were you able to method act your way through as essentially yourself?

I've come to learn about non-violent strategies and conflict resolution in a round about way through parenting, specifically gentle discipline. I find a lot of the principles for parenting can apply to all humans in general.

My question is wether you are a parent or otherwise around kids and have you had the opportunity to use any of your skills with kids. And do you have any tips for parents?
