Super proud of him.

That's super awesome!

1. Got a text from my son yesterday. "Give me some dap! I got some last night". Atta boy! Couldn't be more proud! Been our goal for a couple months now that I'm vicariously living through him during his freshman year in college.

2. Daughter will be a junior at K-State and they're talking like she should be a focal point of the soccer team next year. Here's a VERY PROUD MOMENT of her scoring against KU last game of the season...

Yeah, I got the daughter in the clinic, getting cured off the Wild Turkey. And, the older boy, bless his soul, is preparing for his career. The carnival.

Yeah, last season he was a pixie-dust spreader on the Tilt-O-Whirl. He thinks that maybe next year, He’ll be guessing people’s weight or barking for the Yak woman.

I got a new job as a professional speed bump. I get paid to lay down on the job. Been saving up to buy myself a new personality. The sooner the better.

My Paternal Grandfather survived Normandy, Belgium and Germany with the 332nd Engineers. He met my Grandmother in England at a dance and conceived my father.

My Maternal Grandfather was a Browning M2 gunner on a Douglas SBD Dive Bomber. He participated in pretty much every action post Midway in the Pacific until a Japanese Zero exploded so close to their airplane that he was partially blinded. He was grounded after that, but continued to serve in the military.


I am thankful for both of these men, and I think this is brag worthy.

My maternal grandfather served in WWI. He never talked about it, but he got a Purple Heart.

My maternal uncle served in WWII in the pacific. He also never talked about it, but he also got a Purple Heart.

My paternal Grandfather never said much either. He told me few stories in my youth, but it was mostly nonsense stuff. He was never serious, just brushed it off. A few years before he died in 2013, he opened up to me. He was 93 years old. I never saw him cry until that day. I loved him so much. Normandy was hell. He lived through it.

I never met my maternal Grandfather. He died before I was born. My uncle told me what he did during the war.

My brother and sister are great human beings. Not like their asshole older brother that posts on CP.

My 6th great grandpa signed the declaration of Independence. A direct line between my dad to his dad to his dad etc. He was one of the richest men in America at the time. Owned pretty much all of what is now Queens, the Bronx.

Had a town named after our family. When he signed the declaration of Independence. The British immediately claimed all his land, buildings, and banks.

He was a good friend of George Washington. They fought together in the indian wars. He was the first governor of the state of NY. The Militia leader during the war. After the war they offered to return his lands, but he refused.

His son went out to the wilderness to preach the gospel and start a church in Tennessee. His son went to start the first farm in Fordland Missouri and start a church. And that's where my family is from these days, Rogersville and Springfield Missouri.
