Thomas's Story

I remain fully engaged in my life-long quest to do as little actual work as possible, thus reducing my carbon footprint for future generations. After brief careers as newspaper sports editor, motorcycle dealer and general wastrel, I married Cindy Wickerham in 1976, moved to our farm north of Huntsville the following year and began raising produce, corn, soybeans, sheep and an occasional litter of collies. Yeah, my "veggies" literally dripped with dangerous chemicals -- they might have even been radioactive. Our kids are Phil, aka "The Butthead," and twins Bill & Ted, who look nothing alike & even have separate birthdays. Phil lives in Lakewood and works as a Cleveland-area landscaper. Bill is a life-long grad student/Target associate in CIncinnati...Expand for more
. Ted recently completed a 5-year English teaching assignment in Japan and now works for a charming little burg on the Sea of Japan as its resident "gaijin." He fully enjoys carousing its whisky bars after hours with his fellow salarymen, proving the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. None of the boys are married, although Phil did recently become engaged to a lovely girl named Lisa so it's possible our family may be doing this ridiculous dance for at least one more generation. In the meantime, Cindy gets her patter-of-little-feet fix almost daily from her grandnieces and nephews. Thankfully, the precocious little monsters go home at 5 o'clock. That's when the drink cart rolls out, btw, should you be passing through and be inclined to visit.

Scout in his "wolf lair" beneath the stairs on our patio
Maybe I'm tempting fate here, but this what corn should look like in mid-July on this farm (and so often doesn't) -- six feet high and green all the way to the ground!
Scout literally worked like a dog today to patrol the perimeter, protecting us from red-winged blackbirds, carpenter bees and the occasional loud motorcycle.  He's holding down the couch right now.

Temperature in Spartan Stadium at game time tonight would have been 70 degrees with the wind out of the west at 7 miles per hour.  In the words of Terry Braverman, it truly would have been "a beautiful night for football!"
