Macfive, tell me if I'm wrong on this.     Would the reason you go by MACFIVE, you are the fifth son?  Just curious to know!

Yes inquiring minds want to know!    My mom always called me Sally Ann when I was bad.

Yes, that is correct. Well, to be honest with you I gave myself this name years ago when I needed to have an online identity because computer systems in the 80's liked short names.

I have four older brothers, so five sons all together - macfive, kinda like the jackson five, but none of us got a nose job.

I also like the number because in the first star wars movie they referred to each other as "red-five" , "blue-five", etc. I've always liked sci-fi......

Wow 4 brothers, and the youngest. I have 4 brothers, we still pick on mama's baby. I will admit he was my favoite baby brother. ( there were 2, 8 & 9 years younger than me and less than 2 years apart, thus the BABY BROTHERS)

My oldest brother is 16 years older than me. The strange thing is all of my brothers are baby boomers. Technically I would be considered a gen x'r (by age).

My wife has 4 older brothers about the same age too. Although all of her brothers are over 6 feet tall - - don't know how I have survived this long!

Well my baby brother is 16 years younger than our oldest brother.
All my brothers are over 6 ft. and I check in at all of 5'1". I just say, it was from my brothers hitting me on top of the head, because they didn't want a big sister. You could just tell your inlaws, they have made you shorter. You were much taller, before you met them.    (hey in your world you were)

I have 2 baby brothers and yes the youngest is still the 'baby'. Although I am the youngest of 3 girls.  I guess I'll always be the 'baby girl'.  I'm the 'smack dab in the middle' child.  

Macfive, any sisters?  My husband has 5 sisters and 1 brother.  Poor guy.. and then he married and got a wife and had 3 daughters.  He has been blessed with females.  My granddaughter says "girls rule and boys drool." My youngest daughter says the only males we want around is the kind you can kick out the door.  Of course I've changed my perspective on the male species since my grandson arrived.     He is the "apple of my eye."

No sisters! Well, I hear that my parents tried 5 times to have a daughter....I was their last hope, but alas, it just was not in the stars.....of course, my wife was delighted that I am in the male species!  

I have 3 daughters and 1 son. My son and I are out numbered, but we stick together and usually win!

it's right men should stick together with soo many girls around! be glad that you had only brothers (girls can be sooo mean! I'm the oldest one, my bro is 3 yrs younger than i am, and his birthday is exactly 21 days (3 weeks) later than mine!

my mom had 3 sisters and one of them even broke her nose! (I said girls can be mean!
