In the parallel universe...

In the parallel universe, soartstar and I met in our twenties, fell in love, got married and had three kids: Austin Sean, Brittany Morgan, and Bucky.

All three were National Merit Scholars. Austin Sean was national president of the Ripon Society, and went on to be an accountant with Arthur Andersen. Brittany Morgan loved theater and was in the national touring companies of "Cats" and "The Phantom," and had a small recurring role on two WB network situation comedies. Bucky became an analyst with the National Security Agency, where he oversaw domestic wiretapping operations.

But we were never prouder of them than when they came home for the holidays one December, got completely wack on cheap rum, diet pills and jelly beans, then shot up the Thomas Kinkade store at the mall.

How long have I been gone? Bring the granchildren and come see me; I'll take the warden out. Miss you.
