Blast from the past, my family... (Dialup warning, photo)
I just scanned this photo.



It's my Dad and his family, in the early 1950's.
Grandma and Grandpa are sitting in the center of the first row, both died before I was born.

My Dad is the good-looking guy in the back row, 2nd from the right.
(No wonder my Mom fell for him!) :-)

The rest are uncles and aunts.
Of that group, only 2 aunts, and my Dad are still alive.
The rest have died of heart problems, or stroke.

1. Nice photo
The woman standing next to your dad looks like she was a fun person.

2. Just about all of them were.
Except one uncle, I won't say who.

But he majored in Asshole 101.
The jerk even DIED on Christmas Eve, so on Christmas day we went to his wake. :eyes:
