As we raise our glasses to your 21st, all we have to toast to is the past, to our memories of you. Thankful to have so many wonderful fun ones, our twisted minds still dip deep into the sorrow, into the knowing that there will be no more.

Michael's 21st Birthday

I wonder how the man who took Michael's life, Mr. Dan Larssen and the man who believed in Mr. Dan Larssen, Clay County Prosecutor, Mr. Dan White are spending today?

Mr. Dan Larssen (in back ground) admitted murder of Michael James LaBarge:


Mr. Dan White, Clay County Prosecutor, who rubber stamped it ok.

His Majesty of TVland

When the man of the house is in TVland everything is a negotiation with His Majesty.

"Sire, may I pass through?"

With a pause for consideration,
"Yes, you may, as soon as it's a commercial. "

"Sire, may I have a turn playing my X-Box?"

"No, it is my day off in my kingdom!"
Upon seeing his subject sad, His Majesty reconsiders,
"You may sit by my side and observe. "

"Oh, thank you Daddy... I mean, thank you Your Greatness!"

With that and a curtsey, she happily ever after sits by His royal throne!

Maybe I am just a dreamer for I have no progress to report!

I just can't believe that we are starting the new year without you. It breaks down all that is in me. I mean, even I don't believe anymore you are laying on the beaches of Florida.

It is becoming tiring turning all the thoughts in my head around to make the days go by easier.
I tell myself, Joanna:

You were lucky to have Michael in your life,
You were lucky to have shared so many laughs together,
You are lucky to carry him with you in all that you do.

Truth is ...

Lucky would have been holding your children.
Lucky would have been sitting here listening to one of your crazy high energy stories.
Lucky would have been having you still sporting your Superman belt buckle bent over cane in hand, gray hair half fallen out, speaking at my funeral!

Truth is ... I miss you!
