Congrats! Such a precious and tender moment in life. Enjoy every day with your new bundle of joy!!!

Lucky you! I've love to see her some day.

One of the guys on my favorite Santa forum posted this today: I thought I would share with you a new belt and buckle I received yesterday, wear it with Santa Causal Clothes or just street clothes. I purchased it on ebay http://www.ebay.com/...#ht_3169wt_1141 Note that he never actually says that his buckle says "SANTA" as opposed to "BOY TOY"

Don't mess with Coke!

Crappy, that's some fucked up shit you're dealing with. I've been following along, not really knowing exactly what to say. Sounds like that TA is a complete nut case, and needs to get laid. Maybe you'll be just the right man for that job...

Nice review, Dinny. Short and sweet. The only thing I would add would be, "If you want to know if it's right for you, well then, I'd suggest that you give it a listen and decide for yourself."

I think he was in a barbershop quartet in Skokie, IL, at that time.

Ha!!! I guess you could say so, at this point. My dad passed away in 2007. But you might want to let her get past the 5 year mark in May. She seems to be focused on that, of late.

Oh... I forgot to mention, it's my mom's birthday today as well. She became a septuagenarian.

Happy birthday, Dan! Thanks for all of the work you do around this joint.

More like the Beverly Hills of Europe, except with the availability of very high priced Russian whores (<-- or whatever the politically correct word is).

I started to search around to see if he lived, and sure enough he did. Managed to pull his chute and such. Two broken legs, one of which is rather extreme with multiple fractures. Says that he's thankful that he still has legs to rehab. Says that the reason he crashed is that he was trying to kick a black ballon that was on the ground in that general area. Alrighty then... makes perfect sense...

I can't really beat that Al on Al love, but happy birthday anyway!

^ This Hummer owner is double handicapped. Small prick. Even smaller brain.

Although at $5k it's a pricey bugger, it's still not a complete outrage relative to a lot of the top shelf stuff. But what's interesting is the approach. Seems new and completely different to me, but maybe that's just what they want me to think. I'd be interested in knowing what the technically inclined among us (i.e., those who know their ass from a hole in the ground when it comes to these things) might think... http://www.parasound.com/news.php

I'd have a hard time putting in 10 minutes on my rower these days. Not sure that's the life for just anyone, but it sure makes for a great obit read.

One of the guys won €500 on a €20 bet the first time we were there, about 5 years ago. Three of us walked in just to have a look around, and then he decided to try his luck. He won, cashed out and we left. Bad omen, to say the least... because it hasn't worked out so nicely since then.

Sorry, meant to post this on the Tampa thread. Al sent me a PM to notify me of my blunder. We normally just do face to face meetings twice per year, and everything else is done by phone conference. But you lose something that way, body language and such. Plus, a lot takes place during quasi-social time and just having the ability to sit down with people and bounce ideas back and forth. It's much easier to get to the bottom of things when you meet face to face. That, and we just hit the $1 billion mark in assets, so we have an obligation to celebrate and be wasteful.

Looks like I'm out, other than perhaps Friday night. This email just in: "With regards to the scheduled Board meeting to be held in Monaco Tuesday March 13th , I suggest, that as we have a lot to get through, we hold the meeting over two days, and that if you can at such short notice arrive to Monaco Sunday 11th of March so we can start meetings on Monday..." Means I'll need to leave from Tampa on Saturday afternoon instead of Sunday. But I'm still arriving on Friday afternoon, so should at least be able to say hi to everyone that evening.

Happy birthday, Colin! Ginger > Mary Ann. At least for today...

Congrats, and many, many more!

Congrats Miguel, and good job remembering it!

That's great news, Mike! It's just crazy how quickly she's grown up already.

Tight rope performance like you're never seen. http://www.dump.com/2011/12/14/this-is-impossible-video/
