Pretty damn impressive, regardless. My only familial claim to musical fame is my great-grandmother's cousin was Gene Krupa...or something to that effect. I need to czech with my mama.

My dad played hockey with one of the Boston Bruins farm teams. I'm not sure which one it was. I rode on the Zamboni once.

I'm 21, oldest child. My mom had me when she was 20. And I believe my grandmother had my mom when she was 19 and my aunt when she was 17.

My dad would be 89 if he were still alive.

He would have told Harley to stop hanging out with the dopers and play real music like The Mills Brothers.

Is this really your grandfather?

If so, I sugget emulating his style IMMEDIATELY. Enough with the blue hair and all of that, kid...This is your ticket outta T.O. and into the big time!

If you don't make that your avatar I'll have to make it mine. Wicked.

That seriously looks like Senor Six... um, if he had a jew-fro.

(Uh... in passing...some relative of mine wrote the music to "Hair".)
