Sure, why not? I haven't had a Grandma for over 20 years.

It's the homemade bread pudding and cinnamon rolls I miss.

I am a poor, wayfaring stranger
Wandering through this world of woe
But there's no sickness, no fear or danger
In that bright land
To which I go

I find it amusing that everyone that you name is female...Greabo Girl wrote:You can be a patriarch, but not the pnly one in the family. You will have to share it with Cho, Laurie, Mccormack and, er, everyone else in the family.

They are teasing you, GG. A patriarch is the male head of household.
The matriarch is the female head of the household.
So Sue would be our matriarch.
So, if Edge is our Patriarch, he'd be like the dad figure.
Heh heh heh
Edge--go for it--Heh heh heh

Because Mr. Palmer created this crazy corner of the cosmos and brought us all together. Without him we would not be interacting. That's why.Greabo Girl wrote: Why?
We could call our residence "The Kiltannen Manor"!

You're gonna get it AGAIN--you called Edge "Mum."

Get a magazine and stick it down the back of your pants--it will absorbe the bulk of the force of the blow.

Actually, as patriarch, I'm the one does the protecting!
Kevin, Frank, Horris Herbet, Keith, Tom, Dick and Harry better tread damn carefully around you or they'll be answering to me!
And in case you hadn't noticed, I don't 'do' hen-pecked.

It's a metaphor of human bloody existence, a dragon. And if that wasn't bad enough, it's also a bloody great hot flying thing.

Fortunate, then, that I have Cho's unqualified support and approval.
And no, you're not too young to do that; but you are far too sensible and wise. I have complete faith in you to make the right decisions about redruming.
Now... excuse me, I need to have a private word with Frank the Bunny...
