I found out today that I'm going to be a grandfather...

for the 13th time. There's no chance I can handle 7 birthdays worth of kids and 13 birthdays worth of grandkids so I'm canceling all birthdays henceforth. It's done, I forbid it.

I was never envious or jealous of anyone who had more than me in terms of material things, but was always jealous of people who had grandchildren. Finally, three and a half years ago my son and his wife gave me a grandson and then two years later gave me a second one. I'll have to admit though, I am jealous of your 13, but am so grateful for the ones I do have ...... plus I don't have 13 Browning .22 automatic rifles from the 1960's still new in the box ...... but I have at least TWO!

I’m not envious, life is what it is but I would be lying if I said I haven’t wondered what the feeling would be like. Often heard having children and then grandchildren is the ultimate feeling on earth.
Anyway, congrats to all of you!!!

sun visors, console wood, roll top compartment in the console, oh chit handles, and seat belt anchors to install and then I start on the outside. Basically I'll clean it then fill rock chips in the paint with factory color mixed with clear coat. It's done with a the tip of a very small artist brush and takes four or five coats in each chip mark. This is a 33 year old car with factory baked on paint which was painted in Germany. The paint is deep. It will take a long long time to fill all those tiny chips and get this presentable. But then again, I'm a Clemson grad. We do the most difficult in an instant. The impossible takes us a little longer.
The boy has half of the law work done but the price of Charleston Law was insurmountable to us. He's here until Spring and will make a decision on where to finish during this time. He hasn't given up but he's beaten up a bit. He'll come back strong, I'm confident.
Thanks for asking, Bill.

may be 3/4+ Sioux injun. She claims to be Norwegian. I claim to be a racist. Clayton Bigsby.
Story time, no chit.
When I was in school she got furious at me over something, I can't remember what but she was livid. Her hair was 'to die for,' and she knew how much I loved it. She cut it man-short and I freaked. Going about her business as if nothing was wrong I considered her with short hair. When I got over the loss about 10 minutes later we made up. I knocked her up before the week was out. Maybe in the first 20 minutes after I came home that day.

'As arrows are in the hands of a might warrior so are the children of thy youth, blessed in the man whose quiver is full of them.' Ever heard that?

I'm done with birthdays and done with recognizing them. I'll spend time with all the family but I'm not worrying myself about keeping up with 20 birthdays. That's not counting SNLs and DNLs. Screw all this pagan religion stuff.
I'm doing Easter and that's it.
