@sci-fitsunami I'm so sorry to hear that, sci. But I empathize. Something tells me you were once a joyous collector and user of toys. It's sad that it has come to this. Do you think there's anyth...

@ninadust Soooooooo irritating! 🙂 That's the thing about Did ja evers...

Well this should be fun and create a few smiles. "Did ja evers?" are those things we look back on and wish we could have handled differently. Generally it's cringeworthy in the sense of "Why did I do ...

I get that, but I also think video games and social media are big factors. People, and kids in particular, only have so much discretionary time on their hands and I think video games and social media...

@durendal Riiiiiight. Directing's not important. Scorsese, Spielberg, Welles, Hitchcock. Who do those guys think they are (were)?

Amazing night out with my amazing soul mate. Thanks for all the well wishes.

Amen. I think, long ago, Jackie DeShannon said it best...

Thanks so much, AJ. Kim made me breakfast in bed. So far so wonderful. We're going out for a romantic dinner this evening. 🙂

That's what guys who don't have size say... Youch! 😉

WOW! Many thanks to all! You've made my day! 🙂

@caliban Thank you, caliban. My docs -- and I've got one helluva team -- are all cheering me on, telling me it's definitely doable. 🙂

@griff Thanks, Griff

Thank you, my friend. As for what I'm getting, I have advised my family I want nothing because I already have far, far more than I deserve -- amazing children and a wife and soulmate who inspires me ...

@larock Thank you, LaRock. Greatly appreciated. 🙂

Tomorrow, Valentine's Day, is my birthday. For the record, when my mom went into labor on February thirteenth, waaaaay back in 1949 (!), she swore she was going to hold out and have a Valentine's Day ...

@he-dad Yeah, I read about that. Cracks me up that it's major news when the most the East Coast will be getting is ten inches or so and we had thirty-six inches a couple weeks ago. Then again, we...

@ornclown I'm sooooooooo jealous! Enjoy. 🙂

WOW, Orn! I'm soooooo jealous! Where do you live? Almost everything we had has melted. Just a few scattered patches remaining. Supposed to be in the 50s (!) this coming week in Northwest Indiana. ...

For those who don't know my background, here it is: Here's further background on me: Kim and I are going to be launching a YouTube channel entitled "A Writer's Life", a behind-the-scene look at my o...

@dan1980 The Flash and Aquaman... Superheroes whose biggest power is they run fast or swim fast. Meh.

We're down to a few patches of snow... 🙁 I'm worried our winter is over...

Fours days of near 40 weather, lots of rain and no sign of this letting up. All icicles are gone and there are big patches of grass showing through the melting snow. I hate when this happens. In my...

@he-dad Congrats! Good timing, apparently...

Here you go. Final fall was 38" -  IMG_2336.jpeg

I'll try to get Kim on posting the pics this evening. She's been on a heavy work period for the last week.
