Hello, pixelated friends.
Vendette: first sip of alcohol I ever had was 151 proof rum.
Ouch.
Well...
Sherry McEvil: AMC Hornet (Insect, not an animal)...
Well, an insect counts as "animal" versus vegetable or mineral in the first guess in 20 questions.
Me: Dad's birthday.
Cthu: ...He lives on in memory. Thank you for sharing, so he can live a bit more with us....
Woah, a really old Peanuts cartoon. Nice find, Pete. (A friend's family had reprint books of all the early Peanuts cartoons, which I devoured hungrily. Back when Snoopy still acted like a dog!)
Howdy, folks. Up late running a vid production that I had hoped would already be finished and online. Long day.
Our 15 years in Chicago was the days of our early family creation, so we didn't get out as much as we thought we would when we first moved there, but we did get to enjoy some of its amenities.
antisocial justice beatnik: Jane was on earlier and she's okay.
Good to know. Thanks.

Our first was born in '81. The twins a few years later. Much of the decade was spent at home. Some of it's a blur. Landlording in Chicago - tales I could tell!

That's where I learned to drink.
chemjeff #300 mindful webworker, I am sorry for whatever you are going through
Aw, thanks. But, nothing a few inexplicable miracles won't cure. Like everybody else.
chemjeff: mindful webworker what's going on?
cthulhu, I saw that, last night after I checked out, you asked about how our boys turned out.
Good Morning Everyone.
Mindful, what a great story.
What a happy story!
I got two comments in a row? We're in the Slowdown Times, eh?
Milady is baking cookies. Chocolate chocolate-chip. MMmmm.
Speaking of two in a row...

Divorcing with kids still in the home can be traumatic, and effects can be visited on several subsequent generations.
Mike Hammer: Mrs. H always sighs when she sees me playing with the forks and knives at a restaurant, which often involves balancing something on a water glass rim...
Twenty-two years ago, tonight, our family arrived in Oklahoma, moving from Chicago. Back to Oklahoma for me & Milady, first residence change for our three Chicago-born kids.

Thanks for your thoughtful post, MWW. I'm just reading it now-11:53 a.m EST Your wife sounds like a wonderful woman and I will keep her in prayer.
