I think Colleen, Tiffany, Carol and Tony should receive an award as best writing family ever. I am astonished by the sheer level of talent coming from that bunch. We have equally talented writers in other families but none that encompass the entire crew.
PS> Kelly, maybe BJ and I could get lessons from you to up the ante from our family??:)
It's a fun game don't you think, Susie! Along with the communication possibilities for unifying a far-flung family (square mile wise anyway).
ReplyDeleteHear, hear!
ReplyDeleteWhat is it that makes this "collection of soul" such colorful and interesting writers? I have enjoyed many a fast paced and thoughtful conversation with all of them and would easily include Patrick/Rick/Valadimir in the mix. I propose that it is their "beautiful minds" wrestling with angels, demons and ordinary life. I enjoy that off beat way of looking for meaning. Does David, write?
ReplyDeleteI think it's their reluctance to use phones...
ReplyDeleteI sure have to agree.. as a family,I gotta say.. they have it all.. "a collection of soul" Pat I love that.. it has changed my life, sometimes, it makes us all stretch a bit, that is good for all of us!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to side with that flash-dance-sister-pants of mine. We've discovered a loop hole (go figure) to dodge phone calls. One point for team Skookie. [side note] this blog kicks ass! We're all a bunch of mixed nuts, keepin' this interesting!
ReplyDeleteAnd... where in the world is Shane? I think he needs a Quinlan head-lock to pressure him into some writings. He's pretty darn funny.
ReplyDeletePat, not sure about David's writing. In grade school when he had to write sentences with a minimum of 5 words for each vocabulary/spelling word - every one of his sentences was the minimum. (Man of few words or lazy, you decide). Enjoyed his high school papers and noticed good spelling, vocabulary, grammar and syntax. He has a good sense of humor so, who knows, maybe one day he'll start writing and expand the dynasty.
ReplyDeleteColleen: You can exclude me on phone reluctance, eh?
Tiffany: Agree. We must herd Shane.
