birthday comin

ya know, birthdays only roll around about once a year for most people. but for some lucky people they come around every few months. i have a birthday coming up this year. it seems to be about the same time as last year. anyway, here is a funny story.
my friend marcus, who was also my roomate in college, is a very clever guy. we would always have fun when we lived together. we would make prank calls and play practical jokes on people all the time. well, one day he convinced a girl that his birthday was coming up. this girl was a very sweet gal and she believed him. i sat back and watched as marcus made up this whole story about his fast approaching birthday. well the nice, pretty girl found out later that it wasnt his birthday. i think that the fine looking girl had actually bought him a present. well that cute girl was named auny and i decided to marry her. read tomorrow about what she did when she found out about the scam. the birthday scam not the marriage.


tomorrow auny will write the post. i will be riding my bike at the arenacross at the shelby showplace arena in memphis. starts at 7pm if anyone wants to come.

His middle name is NOT Lee. I prided myself in making sure nothing crazy or embarrassing could be made out of the initials of my children's names, --like Brock Allen Gill would have been "bag", or Brock Ulysses would be "bug." Well, you get the idea . . . . (OK, that is a stretch with Ulysses). So you can imagine my amazement when I heard someone call him "Brock Lee" for the first time. That had NEVER crossed my mind.

What is his middle name???? I think I will let him tell you. Knowing him, he will make a contest out of it or something! That would be fun!

Oh wow! I'm beginning to scare myself--I'm sounding a little bit like Brock!
