HAPPY ANNIVERSARIES.
External link:
Yesterday, August 11, was my parents' wedding anniversary, and also my company, Charge.Com's, anniversary. My parents were married 34 years ago, yesterday, and Network Solutions completed the registration of our domain "charge.com" 7 years ago yesterday. "7 years ago yesterday" sounds just right, because it was 7 years ago, but it feels like yesterday. How strange that Charge.Com is more than a fifth as old as my parents' marriage, which, being before I was born, certainly does not feel like yesterday.
For their anniversary, my brother and I and my brother's girlfriend, Rachel C., took my parents to "The Melting Pot: A Fondue Restaurant", here in South Florida. It was delicious, but it's very easy to eat too much there. We also got them a combination VCR / DVD player. It was perfect, because they've wanted a DVD player, but had no place to put one, and they didn't even know such a device existed. I didn't either, until Friday. Plus, we hooked it up for them, which is the real present, because they are totally helpless when it comes to that kind of thing. Also, Rachel framed a very lovely photograph of them taken from my balcony in Manhattan when they visited me last month. This is The Official Record.
