No offense to Dan, but this is Important

by Frank Turk




Congratulations to the young lad who came through much travail, his parents (especially his Mom -- nice work Anne!), his uncles, and especially his Grandparents, who are (according to Phil) now officially "old".

For the record: Darlene's not old. If Phil wants to be old, I say let 'im. It's not the years: it's the mileage.

Congratulations to everyone in the Johnson family! As a grandfather, I can say there is nothing quite like it! Too bad that young Ray missed the 9/9/09 date, but praise the Lord, he is a healthy young lad!

Congratulations to the Johnsons. I have two grandchildren, the oldest is almost two and the youngest 7 months. Been spending time with both of them this week.

If I would have known that grandchildren were so much fun I would have had them first :)
