World Peace Achieved!!!! For like 5 seconds...


Dad and I agreed politically for a good five seconds. First thing I get this am, an email from Pop:

"So what is in common with these stories (he cites to, but pick anything this administration has commited) Both have governments lying about what they did. Why is it that politicians can never say they screwed up and make amends? Is it a macho thing? Or are they afraid they will look weak. No wonder the world hates us. We are bullies! We can't even be honest with ourselves, much less the rest of the world. We know what is right why don't we just do it and no more of this P C b$#!t . Ya know it's wrong say so! and act on it. Friendly fire accident, ok we screwed up. What can we do to mitigate our mistake and learn from it. Japan did something 50 years ago step up to the plate and say so then fix it as much as you can and put it behind you. Am I wrong here? love Dad"

So we are totally on the same page. Then in the subsequent email, he follows up with:

"I vote for the straight talk party NO Spin Look what it did for O'Reily ! # 1 In TV He even beats Jon Stewart!! Who is pretty good actually."


C'mon man, we were so close. Then you had to bring in O'Reilly. Good grief. This just set us back a good five years.

Oh and my "PPHD"? Phony PHD and proud of it.

And achieving it is so much more humane than the RPhD.

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
