Stories

I Haven't Blogged About Tennessee! and it's been months since I went! But I thought I'd tell one story! at the beginning  of the week on opening Night they was this Role call and everyone would say what state they where from. well when It came to the Maisano's and I, I said "Texas"....but then I thought. what just happened? I sounded like a Texan, at least to myself... it was a very odd experience.... On to other Things though...


    I've been thinking about this for a while now...
    Imagine  Alex wrote a book (which will probably happen, but for now his blog is close enough ;-) and we all read that book. We'd know everything about Alex! What he likes, what he dislikes, (hi Alex)...and who he is to an extent. If I took a class about Alex I think I'd get a.. a ...a...well I don't know...  but who is Alex? do I know him because I read his book?  I could get an A and not "know" Alex if all I did was read his book.
     I don't remember who it was that was being born...Maybe it was Elizabeth or Andrew? but when this event took place, over come all the Mcdonald children.  And of course it was a long night... they were over a long time (I was fine with that :) Quite honestly I don't remember what we talked about, but I remember them being there and having a good time and getting to know Alexander better. Some men bond by going hunting and some by Babysitting little brothers and sisters..(that's an odd statement...) we had a great time...if i recall that was the first time Alex spent the night( so to speak) at my house...although we didn't really sleep. This is an event I will never forgot!!!!!!! But if I read about this story about someone in the newspaper I didn't know I wouldn't care, to be honest. But what makes me remember it is that I was there... we related... we ate... and so forth... It was fun! Friendship: what would we do without it.
     Alex I'm glad to know you! And I'm glad I didn't just read a book about you because although it would definitely not be boring( just read Alex's stories in his blog..) I wouldn't know you personally...
     Well this is the part where I complete the analogy. But why don't you complete it? I've Talked about my friend Alex...oh.... The other great thing about him and his family is that they let me invite myself over... which is a plus! I've talked about friendship... and about Books, although interesting... are empty without relationship... as if one could have a description without anything to describe. Knowing the description and not the reality... but where is this all leading to? I'd love to say. Although it will put you all in suspense, what are your thoughts? tell me something....sorry Alex I think you'll have to say something :-)..were do you think I'm leading to???? input, thoughts, everything, anything!

Last Friday I discovered that one of the many reasons why Alex is so awesome is because he can pose for pictures like no one else can.

By the way Josh, cool avatar. Frogs and berets are so you

I get it! When I first started reading about Alex, I thought you were leading up to his birthday or something. But when you said it was an analogy, it clicked! Analogies are always awesome because it makes understanding hard stuff so much easier. Maybe you'll be the next C.S. Lewis. But I don't know if I'm supposed to say what it is or not. So now, you have to write another post and tell us what it is.

PS. Cool About Me (about you not me) too.
