While my Sacrifice goes well, it's nothing compared to my brothers.

Thanks to all of the comics who tore the house down last night during Virgin Sacrifice.  Catch it the first Wednesday of next month (4/5). 

So anyway, just before the show my brother,  Peter, calls and is going on about the Broncos and his job and his truck and then he nonchalantly tells me that they adopted a 9-year-old developmentally disabled girl.  How crazy is your home life that that isn't a major fricken headline?  If I adopt a kitten you'll all hear about it right away.  And this little girl, Brenda, has been in the family for nearly a month.  Apparently his mother-in-law, Faye, is the actual legal guardian but Faye pretty much lives with Pete.   Pete has really taken to this girl, showing her how to Google images of whales (she loves them) and taking her shopping.  How did they end up with this girl?  Well, apparently Faye was at work and heard one of her coworkers say on the phone "well, the little bitch can just find her way home."  This was the woman's response to the school calling to say her daughter had gotten in trouble and needed to be picked up.  Faye, apparently the most generous and loving soul on the planet, intervened and in two days got the crazy hag to sign over the rights.  It's pretty incredible.  Pete is very excited to have her around.  He says she likes him more than his actual kids.  Just give her time.  Soon she'll be a teenager and hate all of us.  But once again, Peter, I'm a little concerned that the Broncos waiving Trevor Pryce took conversational precedence over my new niece. 

But at least she's in a loving home.  Brenda, sweetie, welcome to The Ewys.  I hope you like football.

[Grunt]

Yeah - Grunt here-

Do you recall a guy at Ft. Lewis College (He was probably the SID at the time) He's remained somewhat active in the radio and concert scene in Durango - and that region. Chris Aaland -he kind of reminds me of a Michael Moore "wanna be". Anyway - that's my big bro! He graduated in 1991.

The hens are clucking! I'm glad that I wasn't privvy to the entire conversation. I think that I was deafened by the shrieks of the little people at the McPlay place - oh yeah - and I was 35 minutes late.
I didn't know that I was supposed to provide a "rapper-like alias". What kind of rapper would call him/herself "GRUNT???"

[ewy]

I didn't get to FLC (Feels Like College) until '92 but I think I know that name. Actually there's no reason I shouldn't because I flaunted myself in the glamorous Durango radio scene.

Yah the girls were in very fine form the other day. Should be a fun party. I'm sorry I didn't get to chat with you much but either me, your wacky rap sisters or the kids were making noise.

'Grunt' is kind of feminine and pretty.
