| Hello FUBARians, welcome to the first quarter
of 2005...
Well so far
it's been a busy year end/beginning. Alex (Future FUBAR "Hall
of Famer") took a trip to jolly old England with "Mummy"
for a pre-X-mas visit while The Cyber Kid stayed back to watch the animals
and work on a type-rating. After a quiet X-mas in Dallas, 2005 came
roaring in as the FNC rang in New Year's Eve with a stomach virus, causing
the FNC CEO/Founder to cancel it's New Year's eve festivities (On the
upside, the virus was only 24 hours and I felt great on Jan 1st, unlike
most of America I presume?)
In baby
news, Alex aka "Flash" has discovered crawling and is all over
the place. It's amazing how fast he can move when you leave him for
just mere seconds. Put him in the middle of the floor and within 30
seconds, he can be either... Off standing at
the couch, looking for a good toy, chasing a dog (or three) or discovering
that he is strong enough to lift the dog's FULL water bowl and
shake it, spilling water all over the kitchen floor. (That was fun!
Not!) Other than that, he's always pulling himself up, balancing and
of course teething, enduring the top 4 as they "slowly" push
there way through, Alex was heard last night saying, "COME on
TEETH! HURRY UP, This SUCKS!" (translated from crying of
course.) On the upside, the Cyber Kid's Kid attended his first comic
book convention and by the look of it was just overwhelmed by all the
excitement (or perhaps knocked out by one of the Imperial Stormtroopers
running rampant throughout the venue. "Bad
Stormtrooper!") The Cyber Kid was of course unscathed in the
assault! One eyewitness was quoted as saying, "Dude, that guy
used his kid as a shield! What an @$$hole!"
Anyway
enough convention madness - In other
news, the Cyber Kid was off doing a NASA stint, chasing an experimental
balloon for the NSBF in January and the Conquest and Hawker continue to
keep us
busy. FNC was, during this NASA work as well, faced with the realization
that the Pittsburgh Steelers, after a 15-1 season, were to be denied a
Super Bowl birth (yet again), losing miserably to the New England Patriots
in the AFC championship. Guess there's always next year huh? (Dammit!)
Well, that's
about it thus far (as I can't think of anything else or make anything up
at the moment!?) FNC hopes 2005 is treating everyone well and you have
recovered from your mass quantities of BEvERages on Dec. 31st. Don't forget to
check out new pics of ALEX, new content throughout
the website and of course stop by the Rhodes Wing as well - www.FUBARHQ.com/RHODES.htm
