I’ve never met a cool Todd. Just sayin’.
My daughter just said that enchiladas are basically Mexican lasagna and I think she nailed it.
kids: we're bored. what can we do?
me: you can swim, play soccer, play basketball, read a book, write a book, play a board game, play cards, do a science experiment, swing set, legos, ride your bike or your scooter or your skateboard...
kids: nah, what else?
Summer is upon us.
Each of us is imbued with a special talent, a god-given gift that when shared with others enriches not only our life but the lives of those around us. Mine is drinking beer in a river.
son: I know what you’re trying to do
me:

me:
son: saying mama’s better than me so I’ll play against her
me:
son: you’re not fooling me
me:
son: I AM going to play her, just to show I’m better
me:
son: but I know what you’re trying to do
But touring is a young man’s game, and eventually even the attention of groupies gets stale. The charter members of TDU would slowly pass their batons to the next generation. We don’t keep in touch like we should, the old gang, but I’ll never forget sharing the throne with them.
Thunder Down Under started as a support group for IBS sufferers on my college campus, but it wasn’t long before public demand grew. We were soon presenting at gastroenterologist & dietician conferences. I even shook hands with Glen William Bell Jr, the founder of Taco Bell, once.
I wouldn’t trade my life with my wife and kids for the world, but sometimes in the still of the night I think back upon my youth and I deeply miss those wild nights touring with Thunder Down Under. 🧵
