Dude’s 67 and has a teenage son?

I’m 38. Neither of my parents is yet 67.

You’re lucky.

My Dad died when he was 64.
I was 17.

I miss my Dad, daily.
:-)

Chris Dodd is 68 and his daughter is 5 or 6.

Sure, that raises eyebrows if you're from small-town flyover country
(as I am, from north-central Oklahoma).

And at the same time, if you've spent a decade or so in a foreign land
(as I did in West Los Angeles)...
you might consider that this might be a RELATIVELY-decent fellow
that underwent matrimony to a younger lady...and was trying to
be a decent influence in the life of a teen male.


I'm not preaching.
But after years in West LA and Santa Monica, you do start to see
some virtues when folks "step-up" and try to maintain at least
the semblance of a "family".

And I hate to think it...
but in Post-Modern, Post-Christian UK (and LA), the deceased gent
might be considered something of a "square".

That is a REALLY sad thought.

He would have been 50 at the birth of his son.

A young man who was about 23 worked for me. His father was in his mid 70s.

It happens.

Some of us don't find our soul mate until late in life.

James Doohan or Scotty had two kids when he was eighty and I  'd like to say that sounds like a really bad idea
