Grandad!

Forums:

My son and his wife had their baby, Levi Jack on Friday. My first Grandchild. So exited!

i just retired on April 1st, but I have been somewhat laid up since December with a knee issue, even had to miss the David Byrne show I had tickets for in Miami because of it. I can't go see the lil guy until after I get a partial knee replacement on June 10th. 

i still can walk a lil bit at a time, and have been going to the pool a lot. Doctor said I couldn't fuck up the knee anymore so I started riding my bike again last week. I am going to go hard at this not doing anything and see where it get me. on the Road to Nowhere

 

That's some pretty sweet news, fabes, Congrats.

First -- congratulations.

Second -- I saw the David Byrne show last night. Holy Crap Batman!!! 

I've seen a fair amount of notable music already this year, but this was by far the most impactful and engaging performance. Do not miss it if you get the chance. It is more like a theatrical event with fantastic choreography than just a static musical concert, but it was never shmalz-y. (Even more impressive than the previous tour a year or two ago.)

David (grew up in Baltimore suburbs, by the way) and 12 incredible singer/dancer/ musicians slayed song after song for almost 2 hours. Plus, the stage and backdrop were "sprhere-like" with seamless integrated graphics from floor to ceiling. Quite amazing. Very amazing. if you were tripping it could have been majorly mind-altering.  Hearing the hits live and loud in front of an adoring crowd  in a beautiful old theater provided a serotonin rush similar to a powerful Dead show crescendo. I was slightly gob-smacked.

If you are in Europe for the summer, grab a train and hit a show or two. The guy is 74 and in top form.

 

Mazel Tov Fabes!  Right behind you (8/6)

Congrats. My first grandkid is due tomorrow, so it could be any minute.

I think I'm going to be called "Uncle Brian," because in my mind I'm 25 and way too young to be a grandparent.

> in my mind I'm 25 

Me too, but the mirror tells a different story :/

Fuck that dumbass mirror.

Congratulations! 

Congratulations Fabes and soon- to- be, Brian. 

Congrats y'all! 

wonderful!!

enjoy every moment

Congratulations, Fabes.

I always said that  looking out my eyes, things have not changed, until I get in front of the mirror.

 

thanx everyone. Best wishes Brian 

Congrats Fabes!

 

 

Exciting news for you, fabes, BK, and Nod. As many might tell you, these little beings are somehow magical and will sparkle in front of your eyes and fill your heart. Love to all of you.

3 Zoner babies in the house, wow!  Congrats and enjoy. 

I have a pseudo-nephew (not a blood relation) named Heath, who was born in October. 

Good Luck Nod!

Crazy to think that my youngest daughter was only a few months old when I started Zoning. Talk about a lifetime on the black screen!

((((Don & Brian))))

my kids were the first created directly via zone lol

all thanks to 9.11.01

Congrats, BK, but 9 lbs? Yikes.

Jill I need to figure out resizing my pics, too big to post.
 

congrats, Brian

Thanks Fabes and Mike!

I use a free app called Image Size to resize.

Big congrats Brian!


Fabes, if you are posting from an iPhone I can post screenshots to help after I return home...

There's a button that took me awhile to discover that allows you to select sm / Med / Large size.

 I usually use Medium for Zone posts, then sometimes also use the image edit tool in Zone to change width to 400px. 

Congratulations, Brian.

((((((((((((((  Happy and Healthy ))))))))))))
