Members kiowa1 Posted November 7, 2012 Members Share Posted November 7, 2012 This morning at 4:48am, my grand-daughter by my oldest son, gave birth to a healthy 8 pound - 2 ounce baby girl, Alicia Dawn. My son said she came into the world kicking and screaming. Mother and child are doing very well.In honor of the occasion, I think I'll slip away to the den/music room/mancave tonight, pop the bottle of Martell Cordon Bleu that's been in there for awhile, light up the Meerschaum pipe, sit back in the recliner, and spend the evening with some nice Charlie Parker and John Coltrane.Life is good.

Members acousticdepot Posted November 8, 2012 Members Share Posted November 8, 2012 If you think that mentioning it was your oldest son's daughter makes you a little younger, your wrong .... just kidding, congrats ... perhaps this will inspire a new composition.

I'll take 66 years old. Better than dying. It did, just for a brief moment, make me feel older than dirt. Thanks everyone for the good words. I feel pretty good today! When I tear into that cognac tonight, I'm going to feel a lot better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kiowa1 Posted November 9, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 9, 2012 Let's face it, we're all old farts and we dress funny. But if you put us all together, I'll bet you'd get a pretty wild jam session, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And BTW, I'm only a couple of years older than you and I've been a great grandpa for about 9 years now. Hell, I was a Grandpa before I was 40! We don't mess around here in Ohio, man!
