Happy Birthday, Jack!

My son Jack is 5 today. For his birthday, we got him a case full of Dr. Who action figures, A Ghostbusters game for the wii, and a Buzz Lightyear doll. Jack is a real go-getter, and has been a great addition to Team Troxell. We think he has a bright future with the organization. We love you, buddy!

    Awesome: You're a good judge of character!

    Elegant: I have an 8 year old too. It's really exciting to watch him become himself more and more. I'm honored to have such a pivotal part in his upbringing.

    My kids and I just got into Dr. Who. I really like the 10th Doctor so far...David Tennant, I think?

    I've heard Tom Baker mentioned a lot. I'm sure we'll get around to checking him out. We're almost caught up with the new series.

    I haven't seen the 11th guy yet.

    One day, many years ago, my five year old step son Ross came to me cradling a dead sparrow in his hands. He said, "Fix it". I explained that the bird was dead and that I couldn't fix it. He replied, "Take it to Kevin"
    I asked him, "Who is Kevin?" Ross rolled his eyes and patiently explained, "When you die, you go to Kevin. Then he fixes you and sends you back."

    Thanks, Lodo.

    Steppenwolf: That story...The first part made my heart sink, and the second part made me laugh out loud. You've got the delivery down.

    I like the idea of Jack as a hero's name.
