• 785 The 2018 picnic

    From MICHAEL LOO@1:123/140 to SHAWN HIGHFIELD on Wednesday, May 23, 2018 09:21:32
    Well, don't let the fact that you have 3 months or
    so trigger the procrastination gene.
    I won't. It's time to grow up and get a new passport, maybe I'll
    even get a stamp in it this time. <G>

    Cleaning up the house I found my brother's
    childhood passport; it had stamps in it. His
    more recent passports did not have stamps. I
    recommend going out there and getting stamps,
    even if crossing the US-Can border may no
    longer give you one - my current passport has
    5 fewer stamps than customs crossings.

    of the Irish to spell, having Sean it with a
    lot of other names.
    Oh he's going to be upset now! ;)

    Heh. Maybe he'll talk more then.

    Perhaps with practice she will learn some
    self-preservative common sense.
    I sure hope so!

    I was sort of stuck in a "funny grandchildren
    stories" discussion, despite not having any
    myself, and it's amazing what dumb things people
    do growing up - and their resiliency and
    ability to make an okay life in the end.

    I don't necessarily endorse this recipe, but it
    will become clear why I put it here.

    I plan on it! I'm still 2.5 years away from having any
    spending money but I can see the end!
