Lets see, First off, the heir apparent Peter Principled his way out of High School.   Second, 1500 feet from my house, the local police found it necessary to shoot one of his former classmates 5 times. Fatally. See here. DenvillePer |

Wow, Per. Is that your son? Bears a striking resemblance to Prince Harry. What a hunk! Congratulations. Do the payments stop now? Will he be supporting his father in his dotage?

Thanks Poto, Yes, thats my son. Payments? Ah no. I don't pay him, he is a indentured servant. About that Hunk and Harry business, you know, he is a member here. If and when he reads that little ditty, and I have to replace the doors in this house, again. All because his big fat ego filled head no longer fits through.... I am sending you the bill.  Per |

Congratulations to the new general manager of Swensonz Construction! Now what? Sorry to hear about the shooting. It was a shooting at Venice High in LA that first got us thinking about moving to Australia. They mostly favor knives and punching here.  |

Congrats to your son as well as you for getting him that far. My son also just graduated from high school and just announced he's planning to go to med school to be a surgeon. Hope he makes it, because by the time I pay for all that he'll need to be my source of retirement income.
I guess the boat has to go, not sure yet about the Festools :-) Anybody interested in a floating cottage with twin V8's. It's not bad on gas - gets a little over 1 mpg!

Congradulations Per. One minute their 7, next minute their 17. My daughter just graduated with honors too. She also works for me as well.  |

Congrats Per, Anytime we can get our kids out into the real world relatively unscathed is to be considered an accomplishment. Be proud.
My best wishes for success to your son.
To bad your son's friend ran afoul. I can feel sadness for his parents. i have a friend who lost his own son just two weeks shy of his 14th b-day. Somebody took exception to his riding dirt bike in neighboring woods and strung wire, rope or something (police are not saying what at this time) across his trail at neck height. Very sad.
