ooooh, the prospect of a new t-shirt! Size medium, maybe with a v-neck if you see something tasteful (no chartreuse, no red), in a darker color, perhaps? I kind of like aubergine, I've discovered that one lately. Green, black, blue, they're all good. Up to about $15, in addition to postage? Do you do PayPal? Otherwise, a check.

And Amos a grandpa! He kept this big news mighty close to the vest for months and months, didn't he? Maybe so his friends here wouldn't do what my Dad's friends did when I had my daughter (today--Aug.30--she's 18!), and his first grandchild--they threw him a grandpa shower. I ended up getting a big box of stuff in the mail from him, and he kept the t-shirt with a limerick friends composed on the occasion:

There once was a man named John D.
Who claimed that all children should be
Confinded to a zoo
Till age forty-two
'Except for my grandchild,' said he.
