Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • Lynn Pettis (6/4/2011)


    Okay denizens of The Thread, I got a call yesterday evening from my oldest daughter that actually left me speechless.

    I am going to be grandfather![/i]

    Looks like I'll need to get my passport and save some money for a round trip ticket to Germany next year.

    Congratulations!

    You'll enjoy it even more than being a father... you can spoil them, then hand them back to the parents!

    Confirmed!

    Congratulations all around. Congrats to Lynn for having a Grandchild...

    congrats to his daughter for leaving him speechless. πŸ˜€ πŸ˜› πŸ˜‰ :hehe:

    Seriously, congratulations to you and yours, Lynn.

    I do have a question, though... What is your daughter doing in Germany? I hadn't heard about that. Is this the one in the military?

    Yesn this is my oldest and in the Army. Her boyfriend got orders for Germany so they got married in February so she could go with him. They were also supposed to deploy to Afghanistan shortly after getting to Germany. I guess she won't be going there now.

    Congratulations, Lynn & Daughter!

    You can be pro-war and still want to see the people you know safe. Double bonus.
