Very nice, Coke. Finally a positive outlook on kids. And at a buck a day? Bargain! Now, TWO kids? Phew. Gettin' pricey.
Ron.

Terrific Coke,

Keep up the good work.

You'll just love bringing the grandkids (grandsons) to a major league baseball game.

My previous post just pushed an idea into my head (My mind works in strange ways).

How about an SVX meet at the Baseball Fall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY in the summer/fall of 2003. Pearlywhites, that's your back yard.

Or if baseball is not your cup of tea, how about a meet at the Football hall of fame in Canton, Ohio; or the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on the lakefront in Clevland OH (now where is my old pair of blue suede shoes).

We could even plan one for the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. (I can just see Randy stopped at a customs inspection at the head of a line of approx. 18 SVXes, trying to talk his way back into the USA ). That's Vkykam's area

If the distaff SVXers don't care to visit sports shrines, we could hold an SVX meet at the QVC shopping network at Studio Park, in West Chester, Penna. ("The Beautiful Naviguesser" typed that one).

Bubba, it only seems "long." Seems like yesterday my wife woke me up at 4:15 in the morning to give birth to my daughter. Now, she's driving. Time *will* speed up, now that you have young'n's -- believe me.

Also if I'm still living in the grand 'ole town of Fort Wayne, we'll be going to the single A minor league games. Or of course UHL hockey games

Yeah, that's the problem. I'm already twice my current age.

What? Shari woke you up & you gave birth to your daughter? You are truly a renaissance man! In touch with your feminine side like no other. No wonder you feel like twice your age. Phew!
