Great pics, Gandpa. Award in math? Send him over to balance my checkbook. This higher math is killing me. Who ever thought I would have to add and subtract three or four numbers PLUS two decimal places?
such sweet photos! very heartwarming. There's something about sleeping babies that makes me want to sleep. There something about 5 year old math geniuses that makes me want to sleep, too. :)
Aw, there's the newest additions to the family and are the wee ones ever adorable, as are all of your grandchildren. And an award in math at age 5, now that is extremely impressive. You've been coaching Griffin have you? He definitely takes after Grandpa in the smarts department!
This blog has many elements and depending on your interests, may pique your imagination...or not. I urge you to be unreasonable. Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. The unreasonable persist in trying to adapt the world to themselves, therefore all progress depends on unreasonable people. The more unreasonable you are, the more likely you are to enjoy this blog. All men dream, but not equally.
If you're a socialist or a Marxist, you'll find that I poke fun at your absurd notions of "good government" on a regular basis. So you might not wish to follow this blog because you'll be offended.
John Locke said, "One unerring mark of the love of truth is not entertaining any proposition with greater assurance than the proofs it is built upon will warrant." I like what Locke said. We can't theorize without adequate information because when we do we inevitably twist facts to suit theories rather than theories to suit facts. In this blog and in my life, I try to maintain this perspective.
Either you believe in our essential spark of shared divinity, or you succumb to our human insecurity. Either way your conscience lets you slice it, the main thing is to earnestly do what is right at the time.
Today, I balance work and play as much as anyone can. All things remaining equal, play is more important. Life is short - it's important to make every day count for something, if only to yourself.
I'm a former tinker/tailor/soldier/sailor who has now decided that maybe it really wasn't all done for nothing.

On a recent trip to Treviso, I stumbled upon everything from fairytale

John Podesta's emails.
The Russian's hacked the election. They "hacked" into the Democratic

He's 5 and he can do that, John. Which sounds strange but they are pushing the kids earlier these days than they did when you and I were 5.
Looking pretty darn AWESOME there. I love seeing pics of the grandkids, and knowing that they are well loved, heaven!
Nice family.

When your mother goes home to Dallas, you owe it to yourself to catch 40 winks (or more).
Congrats to Griffin, that is an awesome award!
