I Just Got My Season Tickets!
To everybody who hasn't received their's, all I can say is:
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!
(I wanted to go with "Nana Nana Nana" but I wasn't sure how to write that old schoolyard taunt, and my kids' Mexican Grandmother is "Nana" so that made it uncomfortable to me)
Actually, I lied. I only got the email. That means at some point in the next few days I have to show up at my house, and pretend/be forced to spend time with the family in order to be present when the delivery guy takes his sweet ass time showing up.
Ok, I lied again. I love my family and spend as much time with them as I can possible stand to. Even if I make up elaborate excuses just to get away. The more I think about it, the more I'm jonesing to watch "The Great Escape" again.
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

Wow, Has Time Jost Flown By
My wife and I just had our second child, My Boy!, in March. Blog, I'm so sorry I put family first and abandoned you these many months. I won't let it happen again.
My Boy! was born 1 1/2 weeks early, weighed 7 lbs 7 oz, and was 21 inches long. He's now 4 months old and completely off the growth chart for height. Looks like my tall genes have won out over The Wife's short ones.
Most guys project their sons to be a Middle Linebacker when they grow up. I think My Boy! projects as a 5 Star hard-hitting Safety in USC's 2025 Recruiting Class. Of course, this will be Pete Carroll' s best recruiting class ever. And yes, he will be jacked about it.
