Kid number four (we'll call him the junior rifleman in the fire team  ;)) was born on Monday. I'd like to brag on the wife a minute and reveal that she has delivered all four kids without the aid of any sort of drugs/anesthetics. Having been present for each event, all I can say is that I'm amazed, especially since this guy was over nine pounds!

That being said, as per usual it will be CMANO for me when all I can spare a few minutes/everyone else in the house is sleeping. Maybe we'll see how well I can play with a newborn in one arm  :).

Congrats man! What about getting one of those little papoose chest packs? Then the little Rifleman can watch you defend the GUIK Gap between naps while you sit in your comp chair. Who know, it may even imprint some future gaming preferences...  ;)

The idea has crossed my mind  :)

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Christ.  After looking at those pictures, all I can say is some things are best left to computers to handle. ;)

Man, that looks awesome.

Congrats, AR! And keep in mind that you might be able to easily convince your fanboy mirth to take care of babysitting duties.  ;D

I was hoping to provide him with a fifth child.

That right there is a window into my plans for retirement...

Here I Stand and Virgin Queen in some endless loop while the booze and cigars keep us all company.

That and I'm going to hunt down Glenn Drover's 28mm Naps and play a lot of C&C:N.

Command & Colors is definitely a good liquor and cigar game to retire with.  O0



I still have fond teenage memories of a buddy's parents leaving for months straight, one summer while we were in high school.  Aside from the nightly parties, we'd sit around drinking & smoking a cigar whilst playing lighter fare such as Supremacy in the afternoon.  Nuking bitches and working up to the evening drunk.  Good times!  :coolsmiley:

Finally got a few hours in with Age of Charlemagne and after getting smacked around a bit by the Mercians I am now smacking around the Saxons. Digging the updated mechanics and the economy and I am definitely more successful as the Danes this go around than I was in the original Attila. Great things await!
