I considered, on this memorial occasion, going back to some of my previous posts and remembering the fond times I had therein. I decided that that would be too much work.
Maybe I should explain what I'm talking about. Eleven hundred twenty days ago, my blog was born. That in and of itself is not important. The important thing is, MY BLOG IS 100!!! Huzzah!
I had always figured on doing this for my blog, and I finally get the opportunity to. Hold on to your seats, your in for an exciting ride. Please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times.
Before I start, however, I'd like to say two things:
1) Sorry for saying that no one else reads my blog Lindsay.
2) I've put pictures at different places throughout my list just to make things a little more exciting.

If that's not 100, I'm sorry. I have a few more. I made this list in Word and then it wouldn't transfer the numbers. I tried to put in values in fives, but I don't even know if that worked. Oh well. You're just glad that that is over with.
Finally, here is the first picture that was on my blog and its modern-day counterpart:

#65 is great.
#67 is gross.
I agree with #78. Or is it 79? I can't tell.
Anyway, thanks for the post. Love ya!
I was going to comment on every entry, but I only read the first seven and ran out of time. So, I'll comment on #7. I can't touch your toes very well either.
p.s. Personally, I think Bella and Kendall are equally as cute.
Spam rocks and I haven't read any Star Wars books!
"Dad" said! Not "anonymous"! Do I look anonymous to you??
Anyway, I, too, thoroughly enjoyed reading your "100." Thanks for the entertainment.
I love you, son.
I'll just comment randomly.

2. Our combined age is 90.
3. Our combined height is 11' 8".
19. Our combined geocache finds are 449.
34. Our combined shoe size is 21.

78/79. I'm half Irish. No, my dad was half Irish. No, I once met an Irishman. Oh, well...
Don't understand # 80 at all.

Thanks for the list!
