  • Kids--I take 'em when I can

    The other day was Father's day, but I guess I have no standing as a father anymore. I occasionally e-mail my daughter in Japan, but she hasn't responded in over a year. I have't seen her since 1999--the last time I went …

  • Happy Mother's day

    Today is the second Sunday of May, Mother's day. Hmmm, I don't think that there are very many mothers who visit my site, but I'm pretty sure most of you have mothers. Be sure to wish them a Happy Mother's Day, give them …

  • Renblog -7-
