Sorry for Slow Posting
25 Jul 2008 12:49am GMT I am in the middle of moving, packing things up (including my computer), and just returning from a great 9 day vacation visiting family.

I've been thinking about this for a while and this is probably just as good a post as any to start this. My nephew, James Roy Helmka III (currently just "Jimmy"), is the closest thing I have to a son at this point in my life. In many ways (and noticeable to even his parents) he is very much like me.
