Who likes Family Reunions?

I happen to love mine. Some people seem to think of them as a bother, but i have fun every year.

Next weekend will be the first one of the year (we have 3 annually) and i am looking forward to it, in fact it's all i can think about; swimming, camping, bbq'n, drinking and hanging out with family and friends, what's not to like.

I love my family and i consider myself lucky because your family is one of the most important aspects of your life. I especially like how big of a family i have, my father is one of 8 children (4 girls and 4 boys) plus all of our friends, so we usually get a pretty large turnout. look for pictures next week.

I guess i should set up a Flickr page.

What, did you watch "Goonies" too many times?

Maybe? but who can really say how many times are too many.

Honestly, the reason i choose this name was because i have always really liked my name. why? no one knows, not even me, i just do. i can remember the first time that i saw "Goonies" and i heard Mikey talk about the pirate that his father had told him stories about and i thought "wow, a pirate named Willie with only one eye, brilliant". Ok, i probably didn't say brilliant, but the point is i thought it was cool.

later in life i would be told that there are 2 types of people in the world, ninjas and pirates, and then i was told that i was a pirate. I figure that ninjas are probably stealthy, i am not stealthy, so i guess i'm a pirate, it's a good thing i like rum.
