It's a scarey thing when you come home from work and your husband tells you "OOPS I did it again.. and you know he did not cheat on you!!

Mr. and Mrs. Ben Brown proudly announce two new additions to their Rickenbacker family. We are expecting the arrival within the next week. Stay tuned for family photos.

Mrs. Brown, could you maybe talk to my wife...? You know, tell her how Ricks are just sort of inevitable? And cute?

Mrs Brown you've got a lovely daughter! or son, I am not sure how to "sex" a Rick!

I know the line works better after the photos, but I thought of it now.............

I thought this was going to be a Brittany Spears review.

"tell her how Ricks are just sort of inevitable? And cute?"

I was told at MARF II that Ricks were never ever to be called cute!! Striking, Amazing, Magnificant, Awe-inspiring.. but never ever cute! From what I hear men dont like to have anything cute that they are not married to or other wise involved with...... But you can let your wife know they do seem to be inevitable... Are you taking her to SoCal? The one weekend of all Ricks and you sort of loose all perspective.

That last comment seemed to be sexist but it came from a man who told me never to call a Rick cute that men never liked to have "cute" things.... I am taking his word on this..

You can call them anything you want, Tammy!

Ahhhh, so we shouldn't call the Rics "cute"? But they are cute (at least mine is).

So Crissman was mistaken? He is seemed so sure.. and I am thinking I should take his word on it.. but back to the original post..
OOOPs HE DID IT AGAIN!!!!!!!! Those were his exact words to break the news to me... the odd thing is I cant wait to see them either..

Charly, you can use that line again after the pics are posted!! I kind of liked it! And sorry no Brittany review.. I wont even go there...

Tammy, one of these days I should introduce you to my wife, Robyn. You both share common qualities of patience and understanding!

Robyn will be joining me during this year's trek to the SoCal confluence.

I hope I get to meet her!.. We are still debating as I am terrified of flying.. and my work begins that same week, so things look rather grim in the SoCal confluence Department. But I would love to meet her. By the way that is a great picture his and her Ricks???

OOPs Darren.. looks like I mis-spoke..it seems we may get to meet anyway.. I hope my other half understand how big of a thing this is for me.. and if you hear of some wacko having a panic attack on a plane... send me a post card as I will be in some looney bin on heavy medication...
So it will be great to meet both you and your lovely wife Robyn. YIPPEE WE ARE GOING TO SOCAL!!!!

Tammy, I find that I now use phrases like... "honey, we've bought another guitar..." and ..."this will be a great addition to our collection"... So, um, yes...they are "his and hers guitars". What's hers is hers and what's mine is hers, too.

I'm really pleased to hear that you're going to come to SoCal.

My suggestion for flying is to take an iPod with your favourite music on it. It helps pass the time and drowns out the background noise of the jet engines.
