Graduation Day

I’ve written a lot about the adventures of Biggest Guy (about to get a heck of a lot more adventurous this summer, I’d say) and maybe not as much about my other sons. Middle Guy’s real adventures start this weekend as he graduates with distinction from Thurgood Marshall College at the University of California at San Diego.

The economy seems to have dented his plans to go get an entry-level finance job in Hong Kong or Singapore (there don’t appear to be any…) but I have a feeling that by Fall he’ll be in a time zone far away starting his own very real adventures.

I want to take a second and publicly praise him for his hard work, smarts, and most of all for the empathy and heart that he displays every day. He’s a helluva human being, and as my goal in life was always to raise better men than me, I can say with confidence that I’m 2/3 of the way there.

  1. I can attest that it’s really difficult to be a better man than AL…and yes, the boyz-to-men are indeed special. The entire family (and it extends quite a ways) is so very proud of them. Way to go, Middle Guy! With a LOT of distinction, in my book. TG aka Moom
