This may be the last thing I ever post in here.

I appreciated the effort by his friends. That had to be a substantial time suck.

What I don't understand is how someone could like Rambo that much.

Good point. Of course we're living in a world where the SEVENTH Fast+Furious movie has made $800,000,000.

ALL OF MY LIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My brother and I joke that Tokyo Drift is the best movie ever made. I bought him the movie poster for Christmas, and he got me the Blu Ray.

I think I sent somebody a still-sealed copy of a Fast and Furious movie in a Box O' Crap. SLB maybe? My daughter won it as part of a huge basket full of movies at some raffle thing. I think there were about 25-50 movies in that thing, and it was 1 of about 3 that never got opened.

Any LOL Sandler Epics in there?

This is my great nephew Xavier, 10 months.

He's kind of a big deal.

Spoiler

BACKSTORY My 26 y.o. niece Abi spent three years teaching in China with her husband.

Last year she came home to give birth in June. Then they moved to another Jesuit school to teach English in Palma de Mallorca (Balleric Islands).

My sister is over visiting this week, and they took a train to Roma (with a few interesting stops along the way.)

Today they went to the weekly mass at St Peter's. My nephew-in-law held up the little guy so the magic man could bless him.

I'm agnostic, but that's some pretty cool #### anyway.

It was me and it's still unopened. I didn't even pretend I might watch it by putting it with the rest of the DVD's.

Seemed like too much backstory.

I put my alma mater in spoiler tags one day during March Madness (because honestly, nobody GAF your mediocre state school might get it's first bid in a decade) and someone accused me of being passive aggressive. :whoosh:

I waited until after the tournament to find out what your alma mater was, you know, to really enjoy the mystery. So thanks.

That baby's pretty much the Pope's head twin.

The Pontif's, like, "Hmm…'bout a 10 3/4, right? You should talk to me later. I have a guy."

Handing a baby to #1 Catholic priest in the world reminds me of something.

We lost in the conference final. And the first round of the NIT. But resigned our coach to a 5 year and everyone's coming back. Look out, MAC - just wait until next year!

Homer's school is one of our rivals. Not our biggest rival.

More or less. Also Eye Talian for Pius.

FIRE UP CHIPS!

 

[BobbyLayne]

Any catholics in the house (I'm not).

So Xavier means:

The name Xavier is a Basque baby name. In Basque the meaning of the name Xavier is: Owns a new house. Spanish Meaning: The name Xavier is a Spanish baby name. In Spanish the meaning of the name Xavier is: Owns a new house.

Pio as noted above is Italian for Pius.

So, kid is a member of the landed gentry and he's a little uppity about it. WTF kind of name is that?

Were there like a bunch of Saint Xavier's or Pope Xavier's? Or maybe they just like the bball school from Cincinnati?

 

[Captain Quinoa]

Maybe they just liked the name?

 

[BobbyLayne]

Maybe they just liked the name?

They went to private Catholic, Jesuit university and now teach English at baby Jesus schools. Though I have to admit a son named XP does sound kinda cool.

Saint Francis Xavier was one of the founders of the Jesuits.

Like the old OS?

I guess that would be cool in, like, Redmond.

Also now kinda sad my friends didn't make me Dolemite for a day. Pimpin' must be more challenging than I thought.

It definitely isn't easy.

So, I'm seriously considering going into teaching. I'm just not sure if loving cats is a prerequisite or if it's a side effect.

It's a baby, not the Great Gazoo.

ETA - this guy wears a 10 3/4

Grabbed a ice coffee today after picking up my first grader.

"Can I get chocolate milk?"

(Horizon Organic, no brainier)

Sure

2 minutes later she screams at me:

"Papa!! This has 22 grams of sugar in it!"

Not sure where she got that from. All her friends say daddy. But same as day one, she's never used anything else.ETA: except she does say Mopa sometimes to be a smart alec ("because really you're kind of a momma and a papa.")

I'm kinda confused. Normally this is where we ask for pics.
