HEY! I got a new one! I made my kid autistic by only having one child, and we lavish too much attention on him. Bwahaha! Isn’t that awesome? I told the person who said this to me that she should alert the media. I also asked if I could borrow a few of her kids to see if that will fix my kid. She said no.
Oh wow. Wow. People seriously blow my mind. If you only neglected him a little more, or had octuplets, he would be just fine. Did you yell “Circle gets a square!!” (My Hollywood Squares reference…not really Bingo, I guess, but it’s close enough to crack me up.)
I updated it again today. You (and I) should be happy that I added single moms to the board.
I’m not seeing it
Oh, no! I don’t know why!
Damnit, I tried it in Internet Explorer, and it doesn’t seem to be working. It works using Firefox.

maddening at times (esp. at the beginning) that people can be so insensitive, isn’t it!

Love the bingo card, although I haven’t come across any of them YET. But regarding the image showing, are you posting a JPG image (thumbnail or full size) and linking it to a PDF file? That should work. I know PDFs aren’t actually a displayable image online.
Yes, the pic is a jpg and the clickable link below leads to a pdf. I don’t know why the jpg shows up in firefox but not in internet explorer. I think the pdf shows up in both.
