The legend of Blue-Eyed Boys has stood the test of time. It has been rumored that when the first child, a son, was born to Daddy Ed and Swoots, he had blue eyes, as do many babies at birth.
As the first-born son he was named for his father. But, when his eyes changed from blue his name was changed to William Clyde. Then when the next son was born the same thing happened and his name became Wilmer Ray.
Finally, the blue pigment stayed and I became Thomas Edgar Rutledge, Jr. I can neither affirm nor deny this story. The fact remains, my eyes are still blue.
As an interesting adjunct to this legend, my first born son's eyes have remained blue and he is TER, III. Furthermore his son, TER, IV, has blue eyes.
Believe it or not!

If I wear a blue shirt, my eyes turn blue. Does that make me an 'honorary" TE whilst wearing blue?
