Shuu Shuu Retarded Flu...

I few thoughts from Mr. Ferland.

Dee and Jim's wedding rocked. Table 18 was way legal. The placement near the bar was great and the arrangement of people and personalities just out right ROCKED (there's that word again). I have never had so much fun during dinner, at a wedding, as I did that night. We discussed topics ranging from "little blue pills" to "Sports Mom's and Dad's" (Yes, Peggy, "That's Bullshit", I know.)

So, at one point when I had a nice buzz going.....ok..ok... Let me rephrase After 7:15pm when my buzz began, Haywood and Mr. D where talking about high school days and sports. Talking about their sons etc... Haywood also mentioned some stories about him wrestling back in his hay-wood day. I piped in about going to STATES for shot put (hehehe). Anyway, the best was when it got emotional.
Haywood was talking about how his son ripped the HOME RUN WINNER in Regionals and how proud he was of him, getting all choked up in the stands. Mr. D, in a quiet but "I feel you DOG" type voice, told him about his son Steve. Steve was a linemen and had recovered a fumble and "RUMBLIN STUMBLIN" to the end zone actually scored a TD. Mr. D: "It brought tears to my eyes.".
So, of course I am accross the table listening to all this and (there were other conversations going but I focused in on this one, mainly so I could tell it later to Mr. D's sons) I felt the need to to jump in becasue I felt an "embrace" hanging in the balance. Seriously, I thought I was going to witness it. So, I immediatly burst out "WHAT"S UP NOW TABLE 17!"........ and with that, Haywood stood up and in a crackling voice (you know, because of the emotion) piled on with "Wha--Wha-Whaat's UP Now 17.. ".
Now, I am not sure but I think I did the right thing.

Good job, Eric. We didn't want any tears that day. I think we had enough with me in attendance!

I'm glad the table placement was satisfactory. Did you manage to get enough to eat or did the other guys finish it all up before you got a chance?

BTW - Go Track Star!

Thanks for snapping me back to reality that night eric. I was getting too caught up in the moment. I'm not quite sure what would have happened had Mr. D and I snuggled.

By the way....I'm here for you Mr. D.
