Well, it took 11 years, but I'm off FB. Maybe I'll check in once a week for music-related things. Let's say at an appointed hour on Sunday evenings. Maybe I make it through the DTs!

Hart and blow-hole contest

Tried to interest family members, well, his sister, in a contest to blow through the hot oatmeal to the bottom of one's bowl.  No takers.  He won.

Hart and the french fry

Used french fry to successfully suck ketchup through like a straw.

Marriage Vows - Oct. 2, 1999

Marriage vows between Kevin and Rebecca - Oct. 2, 1999

I vow to protect you from all enemies of your passion.

When your eyes rush to the horizon, I vow to watch your footing.

I vow not to let our days stack up like dishes, compact and uniform, but rather like well-chewed artichoke leaves flung with gratitude in a gay heap.

I vow to know the magic of your mind, and to make mine known to you, unbidden.

I vow to be game when you are more adventuresome than I, and patient when you are less so. When you must, I will see you off to go alone. But together, I vow to forever go with you where we haven't gone before.

I vow to nurture your gentleness and protect your quirkiness and help you emerge forever as yourself.

I vow to be attentive to your knees.

I vow to swoop down on each lesser thought or feeling with the keen unflinching quick of the instinct that first brought me close to you.

I vow to endure all dangers with you, and to protect you.

I vow in my closeness to you, never to excuse, never to defend, any estrangement from life in the world around us.

With this ring I encircle you. I vow to be honest and faithful and to be naked before you, for the rest of my life.

Bah Humbunk Ay-YAH!

is, according to Hart, what the King exclaims while killing the monster to save the princess.
