Eddie Murphy and Snoop (Dogg) Lion had a reggae phase

I'm seeing Snoop tomorrow night with my daughter. Gonna try real hard to grab a contact buzz or bum a hit off someone when I'm out of her sight.

She'll be doing the same thing.

She's 18

oh, ok, she's been doing that

No. Not yet anyway.

Yeah, and I'm sure she's still a virgin, too...

Believe it or not, she actually still is which I'm proud of. She's more interested in her art than guys still. I'm sure that's gonna change real soon but at least I got her to 18. My work is done on that thing. I win. (her mom lost hers at 15 so she beat her record)

I actually do believe you. The MIF's oldest daughter waited until 19...

She's always asked me what age I think she should have her 1st kid. I usually answer 35 but after she smacks me I fall back on 26. Get your shit together 1st. Establish yourself in something and enjoy it for the next 8 years. I just want her to be able to support herself and have a career foundation before she marries Hedges nephew who's gonna leave her once the circus comes to town.

my wife was 28, I was 31

looking back I wish I would have started sooner - like 25

I was 28 almost 29 for our 1st. My ex was 27. I wanted to build a career foundation first. Whoever made the most at the time she got pregnant went back to work. We saved a bunch and invested very well early on. Till the bitch fucked me.

If i would have started at 25, I would have 4 kids instead of 2

Yeah. But 2 of them would either be on their own or paying rent.

I was 41 when my son was born. Well, I was 39 when we had our first who didn't survive. If I had a kid when I was 28, I'm not sure what he or she would have turned out like.

If I married and had kids with the woman I dated at 25, myself, the wife and the kid(s) would all be miserable. Things happened the way they should have, for me. If I had to do it all over again, I would do it the way it played out. Things could have been better timed, I concede that, but it probably would have fucked up some other shit in my life.

I started at the right time (28), but ended it too late (35)

I'll be 51 when my youngest graduates High school. My dad was my age (47) when I graduated and I was the youngest. I guess I'm a few years behind.

I'm sure your teachers felt the same way...

I saw Bob Weir this weekend at the Grove. He sounded good.
