    Congrats and best of luck to you both, my friend.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    John, you realize that your Social Security and 401k check's are now going to be spent on college tuition right :wink:

    But at least when you go out to eat as a family you can use your AARP card to save some cash. Same at the movies....

    Thanks again guys, but things have taken a rather nasty turn for us. Tests show the baby has made a home ectopicly, which means we have a tubal pregnancy, and will not be able to continue it without posing grave risk to my wife....

    We will try again soon, but for now, we will get her healthy again. When our family does come along, we know there will be a guardian angel waiting to watch over them.

    May God bless all of you this Christmas season, and thanks for everything.

    Congrats! Surprised at 50 your swimmers could beat the current, LOL...

    At almost 56, my swimmers just sit on the edge of the pool and dangle their feet..

    Having a wife that is smokin' hot and 14 years younger is my fountain of youth, and besides, I ain't as good as I once was, but I am as good once as I ever was.

    The best 92 seconds EVER!!! B)

    Its going to be a chase better start working out.

    No bueno.. but atleast you were able to find the ectopic pregnancy sooner than later. And your wife is safe.
