Yeah. Media magnet - whatever. :) Paul did his shpiel on the news tonight. Showing off the stumpies in shorts, wheelin around.

Pretty courageous dude. I’m glad my kids will get to know him.

“Come on kids - let go to Simons house to visit Uncle Paul and Auntie Audra…”

“Awww Dad! Do we have to? Uncle Paul is gonna chase us around with the stumps again - last time we were there - he stuck them in the dip!”

I see the Hula Girl made it to the TV too! SWEET. She’s been along for the whole ride - from the dash of the G-Wagen to the hospital and home. She’s symbolic of the whole ordeal, so we’re all (those of us who’ve ridden this out) going to get her tattooed to remember the whole thing. (Something retro and cool…) I’ll be talking that one over with my artist when I get my Salmon finished next month. Can’t wait to show that one off.

    The Front page of the journal today described this: He described with candor, grace, and humour the Jan. 15 attack. I love Paul, but Grace??? He’ll always be typical Dorky Paully to me.
    We love ya Stumpy!

    This one’s for Paul…..great goin’ guy, keep on the recovery track and be a career ‘Pongo” type.
    After all, they say “There’s no life like it”.
    Cheers!

    Can’t wait to see that tats you guys get. I’m too chicken to get one. Not like Chuck though… he’s got full body tatoos I’m sure. Thanks for the cool plug-ing dude. On my blog now!

    Damn typos in the dark. Getting my lighting fixed this week. Heh, we need to devise a “River Runs Through It” quote randomizer now. =)
