Good morning to me! Its coming up on St. Patrick's day (AKA Merry Beermas Day). Only bummer is that we have a Skutt game at 6 that night! I hope I can make it back out before all the green beer is gone. I know its hard to import from Ireland.

So yesterday I got this letter. Its from a friend I had in junior high. We sort of kept in touch (by "kept in touch" I mean spoke once or twice a year). When I went to Hastings we lost touch. Earlier this year I got an email from her asking how I was doing. Needless to say I was surprised. We had lunch and caught up on the comings and goings of the last 6 years. So we've chatted a couple more times. And then I got this letter. It basically said that she doesn’t want a fair-weather friend. But it when on for 5 handwritten pages! Ah! Who are these people. I mean I know I'm a lazy bum who doesn't have a job, school, and a kid so I have so much time.

Thought of the Day

Interesting debate!

I think its an interesting article as well. I doubt anything will come of it. What happens if the guy wants the child but the girl doesn't, who gets to decide?

Good call. I don't know if that would happen though. So if she has a right to say "no I don't want the kid" then I think there should be an equal option for the guy. But I don't think it should be after the fact. Still I think guys should own up to their responsibility.
