Karsten Collins Sieg

It’s official: Karsten Sieg of North Olmsted, Ohio, took his first breath March 21 at 10:04 PM, and so becomes not only a United States citizen but the 111,111,111,111th person to inhabit our planet.

A special person indeed!

I look forward to Karsten’s future.  His votes (once he turns eighteen) will restore Congress to  Democratic control, finally ending two decades of shoot-yourself-in-the-foot government.  But more importantly, Karsten will grow up doing good things for other people, making his parents proud and his planet a better place.

Last but not least, Karsten will help me celebrate my 75th birthday when he signs up as the long-awaited 20th subscriber to this blog.  I can’t wait for him to learn how to read.
