BLD Summer?

Ladies and Gentlemen and Very Many Children,

It has been far too long since we have either organized a gathering or had one nicely planned for us as a byproduct of marriage or Dartmouth reunion.

As our legions of BLD offspring continue to grow (and I say this fully admitting that my travels have become exponentially more difficult with just ONE child as opposed to two, three, or even four), I understand that such gatherings are becoming harder to plan as well as more expensive.

However, while our formerly annual BLD New Year and subsequent (and seemingly also formerly) annual BLD Summer seem to have fallen by the wayside as a result, I am posting this to see if we might try to resurrect it this summer of 2011.  Our excuses for such a celebratory (and, frankly, quite august) assemblage could be:

1) The Greenwald Family returning to the States?

2) The engagement of one Maurissa Horwitz?

3) The settling down (at least temporarily) of Adin Kawate in the 48-contiguous states?

4) The wildly successful political run of Mr. Lincoln Willis?

5) My 2010 fantasy baseball championship and regular-season scoring record in fantasy football?

Can we make something work?  Thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated.  Happy New Year to everyone.

That is all.

I can't believe it.

There is no S. Morganstern.


Look up TPB on Wikipedia.

Aidan and I started reading "the good parts" version today. We read more than 100 pages together.
But apparently there is no full version. It's all a big lie.

My world is collapsing around my ears.

And Hollis is a girl.
Hollister is a city and a company.
