I don't remember any of the many friends my middle kid had. How weird is that?

Not weird at all. As a middle child myself, I'm just floored when my parents remember one of my friends.

Ha!

Well, he was the baby of the family for 9 years, so he didn't suffer too much from midkid syndrome. There are lots of baby pictures of him, for example.

Take a moment today to remember June 4, 1989

It's still June 3rd here but we will be reminded numerous times during the course of the day.
I always think of that guy in front of the tank and hear Tom Petty

I got custom orthotics today and my insurance paid 100%.
Great for me but how unfair for others. Why can't everyone pay the same premiums I do and get the same coverage?

Thanks for clearing that up, Zen--I didn't know the date of the Tiananmen Square until today, and now I've learned more via Wikipedia.

My older son's "friends" were Boris and Doris. They appeared around the time #2 son was born and lived with us for a couple of years, until older son was 4 or 5.
We still refer to Boris and Doris once in awhile. As in, "Boris did it."

Today (well at least up in the northern hemisphere) is the 65th anniversary of the D-day landings. Spare a thought for the servicemen who landed on The Juno, Sword, Omaha, Gold and Utah beaches.

Australia's last WW1 soldier died this week...
