Green kids are gross.

Baby was born yesterday mid-morning! Both baby Viera* Liberty and mama are doing just fine.

*Viera is Slovak for Faith. (My wife is originally from Slovakia for those who didn't already know that.)

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!  That is great news! (another girl, I assume)

Congratulations!  Great news!

Congratulations brother. Awesome news.

Thank you! Yup, another girl. I am completely and utterly outnumbered now. Pray for me.

We had three girls, it was awesome. Congrats to you guys.

I am disappointed that it wasn't Warpriestess. Congrats!

Just found this album. Am I mistaken in thinking Terry Scott Taylor is involved in this? Certainly sounds like him singing but I can't find any proof that he was involved with this. They first showed up singing a cover of Steve Taylor's "Guilty By Association" on the 1994 ST tribute album I Predict a Clone and this album randomly showed up 4 years later.

According to Discogs, the band is Brother Rodney (Guitar), Chester (banjo), Clint (drummer), Lester Earl (bassist), and Sister Lu Lu
Ha! Here's a version with Peter Dinklage. Who would have thought... 

Nice find! Ray Stevens is a national treasure

Now I need to go dig up the origins of that song.

What the heck!  Is that really Peter Dinklage?  No way.

Congratulations kerrick with the birth of Viera.
I like her name.
Good to hear that your wife and Viera are Oke.

Good luck with the sleepless nights.

My daughter and I were the only women between 3 men.
now we have 4 women in the family and 5 little men and 5 big men.
Stay strong with 3 women in your family.

That's my nephew you're talking about there bub! 
He was born on St Patrick's day (about 32 years ago).  At least he wasn't born on Christmas.

Well he was a nose-picker.  At least he used to be...not sure now.  Not sure I want to know.

You can pick your friends,

I'm having a TurboTax liaison call me back at 9:15 to hopefully straighten out my 1099-K tax mess! Yay!

We found an error in our corporate taxes (which had already been filed), so I've been waiting around for my amended K1 form so that I could complete filing myself.
Hope your "correction" won't be too painful.

After all the rain this week, I am now running TWO 1800 gallon per hour sump pumps to drain my basement so I can hit the reset on my water heater.  Fun, fun!

In Oregon, an older man was attacked by antifa so he brandished a gun. The police arrested the older man. Welcome to the new communist order.

Meanwhile, states like Texas have enacted Constitutional Carry laws.  There are 21 states that have done this to protect themselves from soon to come gun grabs under Pres. Harris and puppet Biden.

Tennessee will be next.  We are awaiting the Gov. to sign the bill into law as the Senate had already voted and the House passed it yesterday.  This will allow anyone without a felony charge in the past over the age of 21 to carry a pistol.  If you are active military and are 18-20, you can still carry your weapon--just keep your military I.D. with you.  It will also do away with gun-free zones.  Your employer or a store can say they don't want them, but they can be fined heavily if someone shoots you on their premises and you couldn't have your firearm to protect yourself.

You will still need a gun permit to carry your weapon concealed--which I have and do frequently.

We're becoming districts, feels like Hunger Games.

Holy cow!  Is your water heater elevated out of the water?  If not aren't you afraid the wiring will still be wet, or is it gas not electric? (still seems like it would have an electric temperature regulator switch).  Dang, not fun.
