We had a pool to see if the Lost DVDs or the baby would arrive first, but the DVDs did.

Not sure about two...

 

 

And here's to sleepless nights and inability to do anything because the little twerp is waking you up at all hours :baleys Avatar:

Don't even bring a gun if you don't intend to shoot to kill.

Swift, Silent, & Deadly, huh?

 

More like Slow, Loud, & Scared ****less.

 

But it's nice that she's teaching the poor guy how to use it.

Good luck to you and Sarah, Ender.

 

One of my friends had a kid a few months back. I don't think he has slept since then, though he still shows up for gaming so all is good.

 

Only advice I can give is to prepare for the worse, set up a savings account for rainy days for you will have many, and follow the Murphy's Laws of Combat faithfully.

[EnderAndrew]

I'm a big fan of Murphy's laws.

[Musopticon?]

Always go for it, for if you don't there's always someone who does.

[kirottu]

Actually if you like women who do martial arts that might not be good advice.

 

Kokemuksen syv

[Musopticon?]

No no. Ei kukaan jaksa katsoa kun iso mies itkee.

[Petay]

You might not always feel like a gentleman, but always act like one.

Excellent advice, that's probably the piece of advice I try to stick to the most. I mean it doesnt always work. So far though, its worked

 

 

P.s. Gah, whats with all the Finnish?! I hope your not talking behind my back! *shakes fist*

[Musopticon?]

Nope, but I'm stalki...ehrmm...where was I? Yes, no talking behind backs, nope.

and for god sakes lock the door when you go at it like a pair of rabbits.

[kirottu]

If you can

[Cantousent]

Don't revel in another's torment, no matter how you feel about him. For your sake.

 

Feel glad in your victories, don't revel in another's defeat, no matter how you feel about him. For your sake.

 

Defeat your enemy by making him your friend. For his sake, and for your own.

[Azure79]

I never heard the name Zoe before.

 

What does it mean?

 

Good Luck on the baby!

[zer"0"]

Strength, Ender. All the best.

You could also add the classic 'don't eat yellow snow', or my mothers favorite saying from when I was about 14-20 'don't stick it where it don't belong'  but I guess you have a few years to go , Ender.  Also, how could I forget 'when in doubt pull it out'?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

The yellow snow is lemon flavored.

This has been a tried and true piece of parental trauma for years, and while not original (the best trauma is unique) works; don't knock it.

 

Traumetizing kids is a national sport among parents.

 

 

 

As for advice not practitioned by my father:

 

We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.

[EnderAndrew]

Zoe simply means life. Technically, it should have umlauts over the e, but since we silly Americans don't use umlauts, it would look pretentious.

[Musopticon?]

[EnderAndrew]

Yep.

[Calax]

Books on pronunciation do but that's about it.

You should do it anyway, that would be kickass.
