This has nothing to do with music, but a friend once told me that good news should be shouted from the rooftops.

Well, I'm not about to shout. However, I do like to share, and the good news for our family is:

1. Our youngest and his fiancee ran off and eloped. So our family has expanded by one. She's a lovely person and we're happy she is part of our family. They had been engaged for about 3 years and we were beginning to wonder.

2. Our daughter has passed her bar examination and in a few weeks will be formally admitted to practice as an attorney. This makes here the second lawyer in the family, after her father, who is now a judge. When we found out that she had passed, I said that I hoped this meant she could now start paying here bills.
