I don't know why, but ever since I saw What About Bob, I always refer to family as "the fam"... I like it.
Anyway, yesterday Ric's family got together because some friends from their old home up north were visiting. This is one of the Richards whom Ric was named after. Apparently he's a biker, does a ministry that aims at getting rid of the sissy stigma of Christianity by goign on tour with bikes. They have one of those big globes of death where the motorcyclists go around in circles while someone stands in the middle, and they do all sorts of stunts. One of his stuntmen did a Terminator movie, and they are also in the works to do a rally for a wrestling film starring Sting, The Undertaker, Hulk, HHH, and a couple of others. This guy has gone up against Hell's Angels and gotten them out of the racket, saved a guy from a "hit" and he has a million stories to tell.
I thought he was pretty cool to meet one of Ric's namesakes, and see what Ric admired about him: a man's man (although at this age, he doesn't look like such a rough guy). Also, it was a lot of fun to witness Harrison "crawling" in action. Seriously, he just hates to sit still. You put him on his stomach and he starts crying, and pulls himself across the carpet with his arms. It's unbelievable. As soon as you pick him up, he stops crying and is fine. Just hates immobility. ha ha.
