I love that kid!! Thank God he's not another scarcastic, snotty, overly witty TV kid who knows all the answers. He acts like a real kid and I think he's great. And Charlie Sheen isn't too bad to look at either. Mindless fun for a half hour with a pretty face. I'm still tuning in!
And Mr Jet fuel below.. have you lost your mind?

Someone already used "The fat little bastard" and I have to agree he is annoying more than funny. More like the show was forced to take him. There are many kid actors that are really funny and good characters. A Wuss and child Wuss leaving Charlie Sheen to carry the show.
Ok, why would somebody post such a long comment about boring science stuff that nobody cares about? We are discussing a TV show here not the mental agony that people will have after trying to read what you posted.
Just say when you think the show jumped the shark (I say it never did) and get on with your life, instead of posting a bunch of BORING junk that nobody, and I mean NOBODY, on this webpage could possibly want to see!

The kids is funnier than Charlie
i agree however charlie sheen is right
about 9/11 and here facts that will prove it to everybody doesn't believe
him
they would'nt put bombs in the building while they were there,they call them off work many time before 9/11
for what they call security reasons
giving them time to put bombs in secret places in the building think everybody
these fact will make more sense than mine will about jet fuel and thermate 1st jet fuel
Jet fuel is clear to straw colored. The most common fuel is an unleaded/paraffin (kerosene) oil-based fuel classified as Jet A-1 (otherwise known as AVTUR), which is produced to an internationally standardized set of specifications. (see below).
The only other jet fuel that is commonly used in civilian turbine engine-powered aviation is called Jet B, a fuel in the naphtha-kerosene region that is used for its enhanced cold-weather performance. However, Jet B's lighter composition makes it more dangerous to handle, and it is thus restricted only to areas where its cold-weather characteristics are absolutely necessary.
Jet fuel is a mixture of a large number of different hydrocarbons, possibly as many as a thousand or more. The range of their sizes (molecular weights or carbon numbers) is restricted by the requirements for the product, for example, freezing point or smoke point. Kerosene-type jet fuel (including Jet A and Jet A-1) has a carbon number distribution between about 8 and 16 carbon numbers; wide-cut or naphtha-type jet fuel (including Jet B), between about 5 and 15 carbon numbers. [1]
Both standard jet fuels (Jet A and Jet B) may contain a number of additives:
Antioxidants to prevent gumming, usually based on alkylated phenols, eg. AO-30, AO-31, or AO-37;
Antistatic agents, to dissipate static electricity and prevent sparking; Stadis 450, with dinonylnaphthylsulfonic acid (DINNSA) as the active ingredient, is an example
Corrosion inhibitors, e.g. DCI-4A used for civilian and military fuels, and DCI-6A used for military fuels;
Fuel System Icing Inhibitor (FSII) agents, e.g. Di-EGME; FSII is often mixed at the point-of-sale so that users with heated fuel lines do not have to pay the extra expense.
Biocide can be added if evidence of bacterial colonies inside the fuel system exists.
Militaries around the world use a different classification system of JP numbers. Some are almost identical to their civilian counterparts and differ only by the amounts of a few additives; Jet A-1 is similar to JP-8, Jet B is similar to JP-4. Other military fuels are highly specialized products and are developed for very specific applications. JP-5 fuel is fairly common, and was introduced to reduce the risk of fire on aircraft carriers (has a higher flash point - a minimum of 60 °C). Other fuels were specific to one type of aircraft. JP-6 was developed specifically for the XB-70 Valkyrie and JP-7 for the SR-71 Blackbird. Both these fuels were engineered to have a high flash point to better cope with the heat and stresses of high speed supersonic flight. One aircraft-specific jet fuel still in use by the United States Air Force is JPTS, which was developed in 1956 for the Lockheed U-2 spy plane.
Jet fuels are sometimes classified as kerosene or naphtha-type. Kerosene-type fuels include Jet A, Jet A1, JP-5 and JP-8. Naphtha-type jet fuels, sometimes referred to as "wide-cut" jet fuel, include Jet B and JP-4.
Jet A
Shell Jet A-1 refueller truck on the ramp at Vancouver International Airport (notice the 1863 Hazardous Material placard and "JET A-1" stickers)Jet A is the standard jet fuel type in the U.S. since the 1950s and is only available there. Jet A is similar to Jet-A1, except for its higher freezing point of −40 °C (vs −47 ° Jet A-1). Like Jet A-1, Jet A has a fairly high flash point of 38 °C, with an autoignition temperature of 410 °F (210 °C). Jet A can be identified in trucks and storage facilities by the UN number 1863 Hazardous Material placards. Jet A trucks, storage tanks, and pipes that carry Jet A will be marked with a black sticker with a white "Jet A" written over it, next to another black stripe. Jet A will have a clear to straw color if it is clean and free of contamination. Water is denser than Jet A, and will collect on the bottom of a tank. Jet A storage tanks must be sumped on a regular basis to check for water contamination. It is possible for water particles to become suspended in Jet A, which can be found by performing a "Clear and Bright" test. A hazy appearance can indicate water contamination beyond the acceptable limit of 30ppm (parts per million).
The U.S. commercial fuels are not required by law to contain antistatic additives, and generally do not[citation needed].
The annual U.S. usage of jet fuel was 21 billion gallons (80 billion liters) in 2006. [2]
A consortium consisting of Boeing, NASA Glenn Research Center, MTU Aero Engines (Germany), and the US Air Force Research Laboratory is investigating development of jet fuel blends containing a substantial percentage of bio-fuel. [1]
now facts about thermate
Thermate is a variation of thermite and is an incendiary pyrotechnic composition that can generate short bursts of exceedingly high temperatures focused on a small area for a short period of time. It is used primarily in incendiary grenades.
The main chemical reaction in thermate is the same as in thermite: an aluminothermic reaction between powdered aluminum and a metal oxide. In addition to thermite, thermate also contains sulfur and sometimes barium nitrate, both of which increase its thermal effect, create flame in burning, and significantly reduce the ignition temperature[citation needed]. Various mixtures of these compounds can be called thermate, but, to avoid confusion with Thermate-TH3, one can refer to them as thermite variants or analogs. The composition by weight of Thermate-TH3 (in military use) is 68.7% thermite, 29.0% barium nitrate, 2.0% sulfur and 0.3% binder (such as PBAN). As both thermite and thermate are notoriously difficult to ignite, initiating the reaction normally requires trained human supervision and sometimes persistent effort.
Because thermate burns at higher temperatures than ordinary thermite[citation needed], it has useful military applications in cutting through tank armor or other hardened military vehicles or bunkers. As with thermite, thermate's ability to burn for short periods of time without an external supply of oxygen renders it useful for underwater demolition.
Because they are not intended to be thrown, thermate incendiary grenades generally have a shorter delay fuze than other grenades e.g. two seconds.

does make sense everybody
This show is sooo funny! And it really is all about them together being funny. If it lacked one of the characters it would not be that good. But you gotta admit Charlie Sheen is not that funny but the kid makes up for what he lacks. The kid might be stupid but he is funny as hell
It's bad enough that Charlie Sheen was already a little creepy and not funny, then over the course of this year he announced his belief in wacky 911 conspiracy theories and was caught on tape using the n-word. The show long since jumped the shark, lets hope this nepotism baby's career is gone too.
Holy crap, how was Charlie Sheen ever cast in a comedy? The show is his character being fed straight lines about his sex life, and him supplying the obvious punchline (that any viewer over 12 can say before he does) in that monotone, disinterested tone. (And the brother? Yeah, sure, he's not gay.) The only redeeming quality is the maid, but don't get any ideas, CBS -- "Berta" wouldn't last three episodes.
I gave this show a chance by sitting down to watch an episode, but had to turn it off after 10 minutes because it was painfully obvious that Charlie Sheen has no comedic timing whatsoever. This guy gets 350 grand per episode for his horrible, flat, uninspired delivery??? He should be embarrassed to cash a paycheck that big for his limited ability in a comedy setting. The guy might be able to do drama, but as a comic actor, he's a joke. And if you put forth the argument that I may have just caught his worst 10 minutes, keep in mind I may have caught his best.
Ever since the Simpsons JTS, 2 n a Half Men is the only sitcom on t.v that is worth my time, but it is starting to get old.
I agree with Rich a couple of posts below me. I'm all for formula, but it has to be one I like. And I love some good sex jokes! But the ones on this show are stale and you can seem them coming (< teeheehee?) a mile away.
I'm not a fan of the show or its premise. It just doesn't work for me. We need some good, *quality* sitcoms.

Yet another show that is driving me away from the television set. Am shocked that with all the other tv offerings - some okay- and the Internet and so many other things to do, that this show has lasted so long. Who are these Nielsen families who keep this show in the Top 10? I'd like this show better if they'd just scrap Charlie and Allen's characters. With that, you'd have the kid and the maid -who are the only things worth watching about this show.
This show started out pretty funny. The arrogant bachelor, the uptight newly divorced younger brother, the smarty-pants kid. After a while it got stale and boring. Now it's just a load of crap! And how much more stupid can they make that kid?
