So the youngest of 3 graduated from college this past weekend, and we threw a party at our local Ruth’s Chris, where my wife tells me I had way too much wine. “ Free” is a relative term as I’m sure he will find grad school or something for us to pay for shortly.

All three graduated from UVa - either the law school or undergrad. ( Mr Jefferson’s school— can I still say that?)

Left to right, Wall Street lawyer, new , clueless grad , professional golfer/ MBA candidate. All either too tall or too disinterested to drive a NFGT.

Other pic is my “third son” , Ed of the Portland Trailblazers, unfortunately fresh off a playoff thrashing at the hands of the Pelicans

Good to see their progress. Lots of smiles too.

I asked my father when you stop supporting your kids. His simple answer - when you die.

Congratulations to all. Mom and Dad especially .

Outstanding. Three successful kids out of college. Gold star for you and NFGT deserved. And like you, when my son Charley graduated from Texas A&M I thought "I'm free!!!". No more out of state tuition! Then he told me about his graduate school acceptance. 18 months later with his MBA in hand I was finally free. Yeah baby!!!

Strapping young man. Well done.

My Son is 9 and is definitely going to be taller than me (6'-3"). Not sure if I should be happy that he won't fit the NGT when the time comes for him to drive or put him on a cigarette and scotch regimen now so he too can enjoy. :biggrin
