For those of you that know of our struggle to adopt (or those that are curious) we have recieved the paperwork from China that we have waited for. We have a link to a web site for a pic . http://hometown.aol.com/iammarktheman/m ... index.html

Hey how about a baby shower from the WT guys ? Maybe a tool box, some VVL800, a little tire gauge, couple o' screwdrivers and a small book case for her BPO / Preflight checklist. I think we could turn her into a crew chief by the age of..................3 <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle> Congrats.

By this time tomorrow I shall have gained either a pearage or Westminster Abbey........Nelson

Congratulations and good luck...

Some advice I got from a friend with an ankle bitter that has just learnt to crawl.

Move all electrical gear at least three foot off the deck.

Especially the VCR, because they don't like having toast and peanut butter inserted into the tape flap.

Oh...

And buy lots of Superglue <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Why superglue? Glue the baby to one spot while you go out to supper? <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle>

LOL...

You are SO going to burn in the fires of Hell for that comment <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I think he meant to fix everything that gets busted...

I would ask that you temper your humor with good taste here BR, this is Mark's new kid we're talking about.

I'd hate to have to drive to NYC to kick your ass for offending M&M and Wif. ;)

Ok. Sorry, my bad. I used the smiley's, but that comment WAS out of place. I babysit for plenty people, and I'm almost always called back again. As for the superglue, it's to glue things so they won't fall off shelves when the baby decides to play with them.

Thanks for the "helpful" hints BR. After having one of my own and about a half a dozen fosters kids I think I have baby proofing down....<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

M&M,

No disrespect was intended from my angle either. A good friend has just gone through the steep 'baby proofing learning curve' and has genuinely ended up with toast in the VCR and no knobs left on the Hi-fi.

But it sounds like you've been through it all before and he could have done with advice from you <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>.

Once again best wishes...

I don't think anyone crossed any lines, it just seemed that things might be heading that way, so i felt it would be wise to throw a cautionary note out there.

M&M is a good guy, i'm sure no one here would intentionally insult him, but we all know how things can get misinterpreted.

Just doing the moderator thing is all. I actually like your sense of humor BR.
