2007 was an amazing year for me, I met my musical hero and my princess in person after 6 long years. It was probably the greatest year of my life

Before enlightenment - chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment - chop wood, carry water. ~Zen Buddhist Proverb

I married my wife and had my daughter. My daughter was born on my birthday and when the doctor laid her in my wife's arms for the first time my wife wished me a happy birthday. It made me cry. Like I said I'm a sap.
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."

3/15/80 Ides of March, I should have heeded.
7/28/81 My wonderful daughter was born, I watched Princess Di get married in the wee hours.
5/16/83 My first son was born, totally non-eventful in the great scheme of things, yet he raised his head and cooed less than 5 minutes after birth, the ob was amazed and this kid has never been of the norm.
8/9/85 The last of my kids, a boy. After weeks of false labor, he chose to be born at 8 pm, on the night of a bus crash going to the Bruce Springsteen concert. I got to the hospital 3 hours after the 'water broke', they cut off my jeans and lo and behold, Derek entered the world. Thank god none of my kids were able to make an appearance without the docs help. Otherwise, he'd have been born on LSD, (Lake Shore Drive, not the drug.)
