What a difference a year makes

p>If you had asked me a year ago what the likelihood of my sister having a baby and moving out west, and my brother and family moving out to Seattle was I would have said very low â€“ 1% chance. Well what a difference a year makes. Jennifer and D.J. are living in Bozeman, MT and recently became the proud parents of an 8lb 1oz baby boy, Shaan (sounds like Sean), and the Memphis Carruths are becoming the Seattle Carruths II this Summer.

New Car!

Michael — Wed, 16 Aug 2006 02:57:57 +0000

Last week I purchased my first car! Yes, it only took 34 years but now I can say I’ve experienced the thrill that is buying a new car. Rather than just come right out an tell you what I got I want to see how well you all know me. Who can guess what kind of car (make/model) it is?

Ok here’s a hint. If nobody guesses I’ll add one hint a day until either somebody guesses it or it becomes clear that nobody reads my blog – whichever comes first.

Those of you I’ve known for years that are mumbling “he better not have sold that Jeep”, breathe. You can rest assured that getting rid of that Jeep after 16 years ain’t going to happen. I’ll have that Jeep — exhaust leak, temperamental starter, cracked gasket, flaky gas gauge and all — for years to come. My plan is to have it on hand for my mid-life crisis.
