i know you've been wondering where i've gone! or been!
I wasn't in jail, or getting a sex change, or getting a sex change in jail.
My wife gave birth last week to a delightful little girl named Mira.
so i've been off, basically running interference between the baby and a very inquisitive french bulldog. because the baby hasn't gotten her shots, we can't let the little guy near her. so i'm basically keeping him busy while wife does that "other" stuff. its been a surreal amazing experience. Being superstitious, we didnt want to tell anyone until the baby was born. I would write more here, but i am literally on 24 hour emergency assistance - when Elena wants something I have to get it, or I get tazed.
As for Mira, she's got her mothers looks, and her fathers dislike for Brian Kilmeade. I turned on fox and friends this morning, and she cried incessantly until i turned it to something less disturbing (Dexter).
my guess is, i'll probably be back to work in the new year, no later.
but possibly sooner -who knows! this is a first time thing for us, so your guess is as good as mine!
thanks for being here in the gutter with me!

Congratulations to @Ted_Prohowich. Your question was chosen for tonight’s Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@Ted_Prohowich What's your back to school advice?
Congratulation to @SGKusmertz, @bek1, and @wilbner. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s Ask Joe and the Panelists.
@SGKusmertz If you could have one song play when you enter a room, what would it be?
@bek1 Do you usually feel excited or stressed out about going back to school after summer break?
@wilbner What was the best prank you’ve ever pulled?
We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary yesterday.
It entailed the usual cards (with scratch-offs from the cats) and dinner at Greg Norman's Australian Grille.
When we got done eating, I asked the Frau "Do you actually think I should get by with a few cards, lotto tickets, and dinner to celebrate our 50th anniversary?"
She said all was good. Then I pulled the ring out of my pocket with the explanation on the scroll.
"Your Ring
The blue sapphire:
Signifies the birth of our marriage in September.
It is “natural” since our fit together is such.
The circular shape designates our never-ending love.
The star indicates your love that guides me.
The white gold band:
Expresses the purity of our love.
The five diamonds:
Show how clear our love shines.
Denote the five decades we’ve been married."
The tears started rolling, and I told her I wasn't serving her divorce papers. 🤣
