Very funny. I'm glad he seems to be doing ok and hope his finger gets better. As far as he was concerned, It was the ol Ray Nitsche method of spit on it, rub a little dirt on it. Wrap a some tape around a couple of fingers and let's go. Sounds like a real man. :thumbright: |
My man Donald Driver  (thanks to Pack93z for the pic) 2010 will be seen as the beginning of the new Packers dynasty.    |

I'm incredibly bad at extending condolances or sympathy to people with loved ones over seas. Whenever I try, I get so cold and numb inside. So let me just say . . . I look forward to the day when your anxiety and heartache are soothed by the embrace of your son. |

He was so skinny he didn't have any muscles and our lawn is pretty rough terrain with a hill on one end of it. He sat down on the grass and started to cry. I sat down next to him and explained to him that he was only going to get stronger and I was going get weaker. Within 10 years he was going to be stronger than me. It seemed hard for him to understand at the time. How time flies. |
