it all started 32 years ago...

today is my mom and dad's 32nd anniversary.

mom and dad always like to tell the story of when they new they would be together forever.

it was the night of the freak storm that caused a lightning bolt to hit the clock tower.

mom always thought dad was a little dorky until he defended her honor by cold-cocking the school bully in the parking lot of their high school.

then dad led her into the the gymnasium for their first dance to the song "earth angel."

that night, some skinny kid with a big booming black man's voice performed "johnny b. goode" and then mysteriously disappeared in a stainless steel hot-rod.

years later, they had 5 extremely attractive children and life was good.

except for that time when their second son went delusional in his online journal and kept confusing reality with 80's-era family/sci-fi films.

happy anniversary, mom and dad!!

TO THE DELOREAN!!!

update: next week, i'll tell you about the time when my friends and i, along with a malformed, retarded but kindly giant discovered a treasure map that lead us to the secret treasure of the nefarious "one-eyed willy." my little japanese friend used to crack me up when he was setting his booty traps.
