I really like this idea. I've talked to my siblings about getting together and recording on tape some of the nearly unbelievable stories my Mom has told us in the past and for the ones who are already passed away, ask Mom to tell us about some of their stories; and then ask my cousins and others to do the same with the elders on their end of the family. We've heard the stories but having them on tape in Mom's voice or Uncle Ed's voice and then maybe some day writing it down is a beautiful idea to me.

Boy, ain't that the truth. Some of the "weird" things about me would actually be totally predictable if you look around at some of the elders and others in the family.
