Congrats to my dear friend Bradford for making more people! Thursday he and his wife brought another beautiful baby girl republican into the world. I am extremely happy for their little middle of the country family.

I am clean-shaven, and apparently Wifey is happy. I asked her to look away because I’m hideous. It was fun while it lasted. I noticed that bearded and mustachioed people treat each other differently, like some kind of secret club. I thank those for having me in their club while they did. I didn’t get to learn the handshake, but I am sure it was something extremely manly. This definitively marks the end to the Carnival.

Time lapse possibly to come…apparently I am a narcissist, or something that sounds like that.
