Me

Some time back all my family went to Facebook and I had to go also.

Thought I could keep this going, but it was not possible.

Life goes on.

Here is my recent Christmas picture

Merry Christmas who is still following me.

Can't seem to find us this year. One day of nice and several days of rain, wind and even a bit of snow every week. My wife looked at last year in her diary and guess what boys and girls, The very same patter. Al Gore be damed, there is no Global Warming, despite what the politicians claim.

Never mess with old people!

Old is just Old - Old is not Dumb!

A strong young man at a construction site was bragging that he could out-do anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen.

After several minutes, the older worker had enough. 'Why don't you put your money where your mouth is,' he said. 'I'll bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that building that your won't be able to wheel back.'
'You're on, old man,' the braggart replied. 'Let's see you do it.'
The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, 'All right, Dumb Ass, get in.'

Never mess with old people

An Old Dog

One day an old German Shepherd starts chasing rabbits and before long, discovers that he's lost. Wandering about, he notices a panther heading rapidly in his direction with the intention of having lunch.

The old German Shepherd thinks, 'Oh, oh! I'm in deep doo-doo now!' Noticing some bones on the ground close by, he immediately settles down to chew on the bones with his back to the approaching cat. Just as the panther is about to leap, the old German Shepherd exclaims loudly, 'Boy, that was one delicious panther! I wonder, if there are any more around here?'

Hearing this, the young panther halts his attack in mid-strike, a look of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. 'Whew!' says the panther, 'That was close! That old German Shepherd nearly had me!'

Meanwhile, a squirrel who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for protection from the panther. So, off he goes.

The squirrel soon catches up with the panther, spills the beans and strikes a deal for himself with the panther.

The young panther is furious at being made a fool of and says, 'Here, squirrel, hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine!

Now, the old German Shepherd sees the panther coming with the squirrel on his back and thinks, 'What am I going to do now?', but instead of running, the dog sits down with his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old German Shepherd says...
'Where's that squirrel? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another panther!

Moral of this story...

Don't mess with the old dogs... Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery!
BS and brilliance only come with age and experience.

If you don't send this to five 'old' friends right away, there will be five fewer people laughing in the world.

Of course, I am in no way insinuating that any of you are old, some are just more 'youthfully challenged'.

You did notice the size of the print, didn't you?

Twins and Grandparents

Mid week last our son asked if we could come over and watch the girls for a few hours between feedings. You bet

We arrive a few minutes after 6:00pm and they are about to go out for their first time without the girls. The world is well. grin...

Not really knowing the little ones, any noise by them was a chance on our part to pick one up and hold her. During the 2 hrs

we did much holding, the girls did make some strange noises, they were much quieter when being held, no surprise there.

Being a grandfather and having the chance to hold one of these tiny babies, it was a little piece of heaven.

Happy Grand Parents, much happier little girls, and of course happy parents who got a few minutes off from the daily routine.

The twins

The twins are doing well as are the parents. Well maybe the parents are sleep deprived, but still coping.

We have been over to see them a few times and seeing those tiny little girls is a real treat.

This last time: the twins were asleep in a bed and twice in an hour or so one of the babies, who had been placed about 6 inches from the other somehow squirmed its way in order to be right next to her sister. Someone picked her up for a few minutes laid her back down and 30 minutes later she was again right up next to her sister. This child is wrapped in swaddling clothes, yet is able to move and she is only 3 weeks old.

I had never seen anything like it. Oh yeah! I can not tell them apart, and neither can their parents, yet they are fraternal.

Life is good until the end

My son has a blog with their birthday story.
