Great list. Don't wish for different parents. They made you the person you are today...and that ain't too shabby. Jed told me over the weekend he was in love with "Jim" from the office too. I asked him who that was, since I thought all of his co-workers were women. He told me from the show. So now that you've said it, I've googled him...I can see the attraction. Me and my sibs used to be tight as kids...but as adults I have no idea who they are.
