What Kind Of Person Do You Think I Am?

I had a conversation over the telephone this evening with my sister, La Hermana. It went from talking about giving gifts to receiving gifts to this:

La Hermana: I really need to win the lottery.

Me: Yeah, me too.

La Hermana: Then I could open a children’s bookstore…

Me: Oh, that would be cool.

La Hermana: …And you could open an adult bookstore.

Me: WHAT!?

Obviously, she meant one that carried books for readers with a stronger vocabulary and more diverse interests. You know like history books, sci-fi, literature and things like that. My book store would only have the classiest of the nudie books! Why do the conversations that I have with people always go wrong?

Cookies And Beer

Here is one of my favorite non-traditional Christmas songs. This is the parody of Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man” done all Christmasy (is that even a word?) by Bob Rivers.

Introducing Madelyn Grace

The proud Papa, Greenmachine, found some time to send the world this message:

Hey everybody,

Mommy and baby are doing great. She was born at 5:53pm on 12/11/2007. Gracie was 7lbs 2oz and 19.5 inches long.

It looks like she will be a tall basketball star like her parents.

Here are some more pictures of the future heartbreaker:

You guys did really good. We are all so proud of the both of you. It makes me misty just to look at these pictures. It seems like just last week I was tricking you guys into meeting each other. My heart swells.
