Alright, alright; I had a son. His name is Keith. 21" and 9.1 lbs. Mother and child fine. Now I just hope to God he doesn't make the stupid choices i did in life, and triples the good ones.

Throwing away God's gifts.
Let's hear it for hope. Once more into the breach. Hope. Pays your money and takes your chances. Let's just hope he can still own a firearm when he's 18 in these United States and that the Khukuri he'll carry will not be against some code. Let's hear it for giving a damn and keeping the Barbarians at the gate while we were on watch.

Keith's Khukuri is a gift from Raghorn. You see that? Grace and kindness do abound, though sometimes it is hard to see or to know why.

My late wise friend used to say, 'just keep plugging along."

I admit he is a cute little guy and I'm leaving now to bring them both back home.

Congratulations Munk, Mom and Keith.
I share all your hopes and wisdom for the little and send blessings and prayers for all
 
Munk, GOOD on you, and yours'. That is some good word I have been waiting for. Keep on keepin' on.
 
Congratulations and good wishes from one Barbarian.

"Stones would seldom stand by the highway
If sons did not set them there."

An ancient saying from the Noble Savages of the north.
 
Congratulations Munk, I'm sure you'll be a great father. Give you're wife our congratulations from the cantina. I cant wait to have a child - love em !!

He can inherit you're hanshee when he grows up !!


Lucky man
 
Good name choice, too! (I am a bit biased, being a Keith and all).

I've got a daughter coming in October, Heather by name. She's gonna be big!

Munk, did your wife take the gestational diabetes test? Mine did, and she has it. I was wondering how all that went with you folks.
(Pardon me it this is an intrusion on your privacy. As a first time father to be, I'm just open to discussion an all sorts of baby and pregnancy stuff).

"An ancient saying"--Eik
Also from the Havamal, one of the best writings ever! Like Scandinavian Zen/Confucianism!

Anyway, have fin with the new young'n!

NINE pounds? Bet she insists you have an operation before you so much as touch her again. Don't leave any sharp objects in her reach for three or four months.

With any luck you should only be sleeping on the couch for half a year or so. :p ;) ;) :D :D :D


( And Ferrous Wheel, listen up to what I said to Munk! )
 
congratulations!

Good luck with the initial sleep deprivation, take a nap now!
 
Congratulations Munk!!!!:D

Hopefully your son's son's son to the 7th generation will be able to take advantage of the right to keep and bear arms.:)
 
Great news Munk, congratulations. I'm not a smoker, but I'll chase down a cigar over here somewhere and smoke it to your son's good health.

Thanks all. Hard to believe 8 years ago my wife thought it futile to bring a child into such a corrupt world. I knew better. Knew those typical post grad white child feelings wouldn't last in her...me, I'm different, having a chronic dim view of human endeavor. Like most or all of you, I keep trying, small as that is, "to keep on the sunny side".

You know how many people in Montana would pull you out of a ditch if you were in trouble? A lot. What can you say about that? We're not beat yet. And this is still the greatest nation the world has ever seen.

Keith, I have no idea what tests have been performed. I used to keep up, but now the tide just carries me along. I can ask my wife.

Eikerang, no idea what the hell those stones mean, but like them.
Walosi, it is good to see you around. We need old frogs. Frogs know.

Yvsa, your hope is mine, and that our country will be more united.
Rusty, my sons were 8, 9.5 and 9.1. I was there for all of them. funny thing, I had to sign in as a 'visitor'...screwed up world...I recall the Nine Fiver's head did not fit through the available passage, much to my wife's distress...and yes, Rusty, there is a knife waiting for me..( in the Doctor's hands)

This is the best forum I have ever found. The one's who stop and help pull out a tourist in the ditch.
