I have some happy personal news to share!

I became a first-time Grandpa this week. My daughter Zoe and her husband Chris had a beautiful girl named Sabrina, born October 15, weighing 8 pounds, and 11 ounces.

I flew from Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles and arrived just in time for the birth at Cedars Sinai. For the next 6 weeks, I will be helping the family and sending your 65Nation newsletter from Hollywood, CA!
