Three boys - one with no socks, shorts and wearing boots makes a million dollars? That sucks!!! All of this from a family who can count relatives such as Charlemagne, grandpa Robert the Brus of Scotland and grandma Queen Mary of Scots, two Uncles that crossed the Delaware with Washington (Benjamin and Solomon Overfield), a grandparent who rode shotgun for Goerge Winslow on the Mayflower (George Soule for you nit-picking rump pa pa pum Mayflowers snoots), and a father who got himself shot while serving as a tank driver for Patton in N. Africa in the big one -WWII for you history buffs...you can see dad at left smoking the ever present Camel as Patton bends over him - thankfully dad had a real wound or we'd hear the slap from here to eternity - BTW, this was the second wound he got in the Sicily invasion...luck follows the happy doesn't it? One more wound and dad goes home...that was the million dollar one though - took out a lung...but the cigarettes still won that war...
