So today the whole family is going to a Rients family get-together of reputedly unprecedented proportions.  My cousin the Conquering Hero is on leave from the Armed Forces.  Now he's an okay guy, but his dad seems to need to put his son the serviceman on display at every opportunity, going beyond the usual fatherly pride and into a new realm where he seems to be in direct competition the members of his generation.  Like they're playing a game Who Can Raise the Best Kids.  I dunno, maybe I'm reading too much into daddy-o's bahavior here.  Anyway, I think I'm going to pack my Uno and Fluxx decks in hopes of getting a game going at some point.
