@WhyFi is there much Middle-Eastern food in your area, and if so, do you ever eat any?

LMAO. So, Colin is going to a friend's bday party later today. The bday boy's mom just contacted my wife about a little extra playtime for her son and Colin - either before or after the party and bday boy's mom would be happy to do the picking up/dropping off. To my wife, who's in the midst of taking apart of the kids' room (getting rid of the girl's crib, putting in a small bed for her), getting Colin out of the way for an extra hour sounds like a great idea, so she says "sure!"
"Great! What time should we drop him off at your place?" is the reply from bday boy's mom.
Ah yup. Bday boy's mom was a bit vague and loose with the pronouns - dropping off/picking up "him" was in reference to her son, not ours. She was asking my wife to babysit her kid for an extra hour, not offering to take our kid off our hands for an extra hour. And yeah, my wife accidentally agreed to it. Oops.
Oh, and I laughed at her gaff, so now she's mad at me.

No, Sharia Law forbids serving infidels. Or so I hear.

Is this flooding keeping you away from work? That could be a plus. More time with the trumpet. And why a trumpet rather than a cornet? They tried to talk me into a cornet in the fifth grade. I should have listened.

Boy you people are so lucky, they obviously hadn't invented musical instruments yet back when I was in grade school, otherwise why would they have not offered lessons to us? On the other hand, we DID learn the hell out of some 3Rs!

I've had little if any Middle Eastern food in my life. Missing out on a pretty big chunk of the culinary map.
Pass.
No, the roads weren't a problem until yesterday, and now much of that has subsided.
I can't say why the cornet drifted out of favor. I don't think I've ever played one.
