Stowe also will meet his 23-month-old son for the first time.

Why cant they just fucking say his 2 year old son! I hate that shit! Its like saying, in August I'll be 300 months-old! Happy birthday to me.

Maybe that should go in the pet peeves thread....

...because that would be incorrect.

Technically, he'd only be 1 full year old, and that doesn't do well to demonstrate how long he's been away from home. 23 months helps get the point across much better than 1 year.

he stayed on the boat an extra 150+ days... I wonder if it had anything to do with his new found dependents?

......they could have said he's almost 2. So since I'm almost 25, I should tell people that I'm 298 months

LOL I know what you mean. Under 1 year I can understand using months. Otherwise just approximate like "nearly 2" or "a year and a half"
