Parents

Growing up we had a friend who's dad we called "Nick of all trades". He wasn't like other kids fathers. He had skis and snowshoes and bikes and a kayak. He did lots of different stuff. And when we would go over there he would tell us about some great new imported beer he found and offer us one. At the time we thought he was odd. Sort of cool as a parent could go but more odd.

I would guess I am a bit like old Nick of all trades. I will soon be 40 and I still ride bikes and skateboard and snowboard and generally act like a fool. I've made it this far being this way and I really don't see it changing anytime soon.

Hell I'm going off to ride roller coaters for a few days.

I don't think I'm ever gonna grow up.

Growing up is for old people.

So his name was Nick. Too bad his name wasn't Jack.
