Tell you guys a pretty cool story, or so I thought.

So Fri. night I watched the evening news (ch. 4) and saw that the Hogetts were retiring. To me no big deal but I know they have been around since the 80's. So later that night (11pm) I'm watching Family Guy and the wife walks in wanting to watch the news. I piss and moan and tell her no, then change it to ch. 4 and say see same BS from earlier. So she says change it to ch. 5 then. I change it and they are talking about the Hogetts again. Interviewing the head Hogett and they start showing pictures. I'm bored starting to complain and a picture pops up that catches my attention. The first full picture up has 4 Hogetts I think with my brother-in-law to their right (our left). Ok no big deal right.... my brother-in-law passed away a year ago. This picture was several years old cause he was looking a lot younger. He's the one with the maroon jacket, grey shirt, sun glasses and goatee.

My wife immediatly called her sister and she found it on myfoxdc.com. She was so excited to see him in the picture and sent the link to all of his family members. Thank You to whoever had the photo and gave it to Fox news. It made my night.
