Unleashing Tommy on the World

I saw the excitement in Tommy's eyes when he left for the "el" this morning on his way to Columbia College orientation. School starts for him on Monday--he's tranferring in as a Sophomore.

I shook his hand and said "This is the first day of your life, kid. Knock 'em dead." He was beaming. I've never seen him like that. So happy for him. I know it sounds crazy, but I would happily take that same ride again myself. Even the bumps in the road will be an adventure.
