My boy just came in 6th. Of the NATIONAL FUCKING CHAMPIONSHIPS.  WOOHOOOOO!

Yes. You see, would have been at least fourth if The Asmo was mentioned in stead of Spaghetti Monster. 

Still, well done, that.

Damn! That's pretty good.

(There were more than 7 contenders, right?  )

You evil shit you!!

Exactly the same thought crossed my mind

Well, that's the angle I'm gonna take...

Congrats.
My daughter this week came in midfield in her attempt at nationals.
She doesn't like doing the swim leg in the pool but a shark was sighted, and a diver had recently been eaten (maybe not totally eaten but critically tasted) so it was the pool.  Surf lifesavers had just lost a fifteen year old to the water in their championships, a time for caution I suppose.

It sucks that those who train so long so hard for bike events lose because of a failed tube.

Congrats Scissorlegs, that's awesome!!!

I must just be in a giggly mood today (I'm living up to the user title Tank gave me!) but I TOTALLY think that needs to become a whole new phrase the news media adopts! "The man was not totally eaten by the bear, but he was in fact critically tasted."

...and well done to 'le petit fours magie'

Well, any incentive to swim quicker is a bonus, right?!

Scissorlegs, congratulations to your lad for doing so well in the National fucking championship.  How did he get on in the bike race?

Too knackered to compete. That's my boy!

BTW, sorry I haven't offered my congratulations on your 1000 yet, I was waiting until I get to my work PC from which I can reengage Git-of-Siz avatar in honour. Anyway, Congrats for now!

A little pride showing through here.

One son coming back from a semester studying in Italy (Architecture major) tomorrow. Did really well.

Youngest son about to head off to college after high school this year. He is a pianist and has schools vying for his attendance. Two in particular have gone back and forth, each upping the scholarships and extras in order to get him to come to them. One had their Distinguished Artist in Residence call my son from Ireland to work on him too!

Finally! After four sons, I got one that schools are fighting over, rather than us begging to get in! Lol!

I know only too well the variability of offspring!

Congratulations! That's wonderful! 

I certainly would understand if you didn't want to share anything publically, but I'm very fond of the piano, and if there were any recording online of him playing, I'd love to hear it sometime.

The Asmo's ancient Small One escaped his cage, went all the way to the stairs, down, across the kitchen, up to the open window, out of that and into the shed where he was reacquired while sorting through the flower seeds. 

And The Asmo, he is proud of his old, barely walking-capable Small One and his epic conquest.
