Here's another winner, Rat. Guess it takes all kinds to commit fraud, swandog. Disability funding comes out of your paycheck, too. I think his name...

Nah. Just the usual stereotype of people sucking off the taxpayers' teat.

This might be the highlight of the day. I’m tuned in.

CONGRATULATIONS, Paul! That is happy news…
8:34 am
Congrats today TP and to his lovely wife, who was nice enough to remember me from a project we had both worked on some years ago when we chatted at the Chasing Windmills wrap party. I remember we talked about getting the house ready for the new baby.
Hope you get a spot in the delivery room soon!

Best Wishes for a healthy, brief and relatively pain-free delivery, Paul…didn’t know you were married to Ana Voog…weird.

Thanks everyone. We’re still in the thick of it. Just for clarification, I’m not married to Ana Voog.

Baby born. Congratulations, Paul!

congrats! now the real fun begins…you get them home and wonder, “hey, we read all the books and took all the classes to learn about the birthing process, but we have no idea what to actually do with a baby!”.
We found this book to be essential first time parent reading. Both of our kids are sound sleepers to this day.

And whatever you do, totally ignore anything Dr. Spock says unless you want to raise up little risk-averse liberals. Oh, wait …
heh. Just funnin ya son. Congrats.

No baby yet guys. The monitor goes on the scalp inside the the uterus.
10:40 pm
I feel violated.

Here’s the best book ever written about babies in my humble opinion:
The Baby Book
Invaluable.
Hang in there!

And whatever you do, totally ignore anything Dr. Spock says unless you want to raise up little risk-averse liberals. Oh, wait …
See, that’s funny because my parents followed Spock’s book like it was the Bible. Spock says you are supposed to let siblings work out their differences and not intervene, so they raised two kids who kicked the crap out of each other on a daily basis. The third Cat scan should have put ‘em off the Spock Way, but they’re stubborn liberals.
Congrats!

“The monitor goes on the scalp inside the the uterus.“
They let you put your head in there?

All right, now there really is a baby. It’s a girl. 7 pounds, 21″.

Congrats, redux.
