Blogmeister,
Thanks for opening the blog to anonymous posts. For months I have been unable to express myself due to my technical inability to procure a Google account. Now I have the opportunity to release my innermost feelings. You're a peach.

I am not in favor of anonymous posts considering I've already been called a douche in my Rhino post.

You're right Dave. Who needs comments like that? That's why I shut off anonymous comments two years ago. It would appear that we have immature readers of our blog who make immature comments and lack the courage to sign their names. What we don't know is whether they are family members or jerks at large. Let's see what happens next. I can shut off the anonymous comments at any time.

I think the little babies are beautiful and Will looks like Richard Simpson. Leah looks like her Mommy. How does Elizabeth like her new sibs. I think doulas are wonderful.

I always forget my username & password so I welcome tthe ability to make this "anonymous" post.

Up front & not anonymous,

Nora xoxo

PS Charlie can I try again /w another username & password.

Thanks, Nora,
I’m glad you now have the ability to post.
Are there any others out there who are interested in using “anonymous” to post?
Let us know.

Hi everybody,
I too would love to post anonymously. I love to read the blog but had forgotten my info. long ago and have been too lazy to set it up again. However, I agree that the wimp who posts mean things anonymously might make it challenging so I guess we'll see what happens.

On another note, yay we have our babies! I am over the moon with happiness. Little Will looks exactly like his proud papa and I'm not sure yet about Leah. I'm enjoying every second of this amazing time with them. Thank you for all of your nice comments. I'm sure you'll be seeing plenty of pics of them in the future!

Love,
Laura

Simpsons:

I've been trying to overcome anonymity my whole life, but this is a chance to embrace it wholeheartedly - it's a door into the blog. Praise Allah.

I'm Tad LaFountain (Tica's husband) and as some of you know, I have compiled some extensive genealogy on the family. It's not just the Simpson side, either - Shaffer roots on many branches going back to George Zavietz born in 1695 in Strasbourg, France (Who? Exactly - that's the point).

The irony is that I have more material on 18th and 19th century family members than 20th and 21st century newbies. And you keep multiplying (commendable, but not without its frustrations).

So here's the deal - send as much detail about your families as you can (birth dates and places, marriage dates and places, divorce dates, whatever) to aal3@alumni.princeton.edu; I'll compile all this stuff and send you a family tree if you're interested (and of course you are).

And if someone can send me the decoder ring to figure out all the blog nicknames (mine fell out of the cereal box and the dog ate it), that wouldn't hurt, either.
