Tentatively nicknamed ‘Beep’ – at least by me and my sister-in-law. Baby boy, 8 lb, 5 oz, 20 inches long, born last night. Three hour delivery, and everybody’s doing fine.
Posting is going to be pretty much nonexistent for the next couple of days; then again, it’s Thanksgiving weekend.
See you on the flip side.
Happy Thanksgiving.
…still pretty much taking some time off.
Best.

…sorry, folks, but real life is intruding. Not that; I’m just beat.
…does say a lot about political discussion in this country.
What it says is “Wow, but there are a lot of bigoted people among the Online Left.” What makes this really funny is that these posts were spit out as automatic links to the HuffPo’s very stiff admission that Sparkman hanged himself for the insurance money. Enjoy them while they’re there…

No change in the baby’s status and my wife has decided to defrost the blackberries for her signature blackberry pie. Therefore, the child will make his appearance on Thursday.
Well, begin as you mean to go on, I suppose. Both sides of his family have a long, treasured, and proud history of being unmitigated pains in the ass.

PS: Does anybody actually care about this? Obviously, it’s important to me and taking up a lot of my time, but that’s not the same thing as being interesting.
Credit the Democrats for this exciting new development in mental health issues. Parents having problems with their kids moving out and leaving them alone? Easily solved: make it so that they can’t move out.
WASHINGTON – Faced with limited job options, many young adults are turning to an old standby to weather the recession: moving back in with mom and dad.
Nearly 1 in 7 parents with grown children say they had a “boomerang kid” move back home in the past year, according to a study released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center. In a turnabout in the rite of passage in which a college graduate finds a job and an apartment, many are returning to their parents’ empty nests because of tight finances or as they pursue an advanced degree.
Brilliant. (H/T: Instapundit)

“Boomerang kids?” Ye gods and little fishes.
And no doubt unicorn rides, seeing as the third is just as likely to happen as the first two.
In case you’re wondering, this call is due to the announcement that census worker Bill Sparkman killed himself for the insurance money (H/T: R.S. McCain) – which means that he was not murdered by conservative monsters from the id, or murdered for ideological purposes – or, in fact, was murdered at all. I’m sure that this would be an embarrassment for everyone on the Other Side who flogged this particular narrative, except this would imply that they cared about Sparkman in the first place. Which they didn’t, so expect a grudging bare minimum, at best.

PS: For the record: when you try to set up your suicide to make it look like you’ve been murdered by your ideological opponents, you have officially abrogated any obligation for me to be upset at your plight.
