Thirty Years Ago Today

My parents went to bed after watching the Toronto Maple Leafs beat the New York Islanders 5-2 in the quarter finals of the Stanley Cup playoffs. My very pregnant mom woke my dad up around midnight to tell him it was time to go to the hospital. I was born around 2:30 am.

My dad used to call me "Little Dudley" before I was born. He would talk to me in the womb saying "Hey there Little Dudley, this is your dad." If if was a boy, his name would be Michael David and they had not decided what they would name a girl.

Filed under "How am I not surprised?": "Night Fever" by The Bee Gees was the top song the day I was born.

  3. Oi, it has been fixed. It doesn't do spell checker for the title.
    I think whether it is better or worse depends on the person.
