Little Smoothmonikette is on the way





I'm going to be a dad for the first time. My wife is due at the end of June, and it's a little girl. If anyone would like to buy us a gift, she's registered at Guitar Center and apple.com

Congratulations!! Joe Bob Briggs once wrote fabulously (and IMO accurately) on the psychological changes of impending parenthood in Iron Joe Bob. Regrettably, my copy has been missing for some time or I'd quote it for you.

Very cool! Do we get to know the name you've picked, or are you keeping it hush-hush until the delivery?
