My wife gave birth to a 10 1/2 pound baby shortstop last month, June 25th, and I've been going through the anticipated hallucinatory bouts of sleep deprivation ever since.

Sorry about the extended absence. I'll be back as soon as he's happily parked in day care.
By the way, if anyone's counting, baby makes four and I'm done with contributing my bit in the gradual over-population of the planet. Of course, if I were living anywhere in China, I'd have been thrown into the stocks two children ago and strongly remonstrated.
So, if you so happen to be twenty-something and single, happy mudding you carefree mofos. If not, you know my pain.
Rejoice and persevere.

Doesn't fit my description being 31 and single (how the heck did I hit 31? When did that happen?). Wouldn't say that I was utterly care-free due to Accountancy exams, working life, etc but I certainly have no family comittments.
Besides, isn't having another bundle of joy much more rewarding than whooping it up as you load a Torn?
Don't answer if you've just endured 38 hours of sleep deprivation ;).
Congratulations on being a dad for the fourth time. Are you a masochist or just wanting lots of grand-children?
I like kids - generally other people's.
Regards, Cordelia

the four children are a result of a previous divorce and subsequent re-marriage to a women ten years my junior.

Congrats, Dank!
our daughter is 10 weeks old today (born May 27), which in part explains my recent absence from Jedi of late. Finally logged in my IMM tonight and took me a half-hour to read the IMM board. Good thing I cryo'd all my morts before our girl was born!
Relantel/Steeler (120 days will hit around labor day, so I will probably be offline until close to then)

So when does Dank get nominated for God of Virility, younger wife, kids falling out the wazoo (pun intended), congratulations are definately in order my friend.
PS (stay away from my gf, you might just be spewing enough testosterone from your pores to impregnate her from 100 yards away)
Cheers ya bastich, how exactly do you have enough energy to actually mud between working, having kids, and making em?

The Ten Most Important Life Milestones, As Seen From The Viewpoint of the Text Gamer:
1. Read LOTR
Okay, well maybe just The Hobbit. You can pretty much get the gist of the thing from the Peter Jackson films.
2. Receive Computer With Internet Access
Man was designed to surf.
3. First MUD Telnet Port Address
You don't need to understand DNS to use an address. And thank God for that, too.
4. First MUD Multi All-Nighter
If you used coffee, give yourself a ten point bonus. Mescaline or Dexadrine users, subtract five.
5. First Mudsex
Uncle Tom's Cabin or the Tree house? With Arizhel or Tam?
6. First Death Trap
The world goes dark and you contemplate throwing yourself in front of Mommy's SUV.
7. First Comeback After Retirement (see #6)
Nah, you're back. EQ is for sissies, anyway. Nekkid mages rule.
8. First Beer
Was it a Coors? Rainier Ale? Did you use the ID you created with your cracked copy of PhotoShop? Bonus points.
9. First Uber Item
Just pop a phaser? Spent a month trying? Alienated the rest of your Mud Pals doing it? Perfect.
10. First AVTR+
After many years of play, you've managed to steer clear of the game's tempting idiosyncrasies, selected the right play pals, and have become a model mudizen. Who knew that force would turn out to be such a fun command?

First MUD Telnet Port Address ahhh ensi.goldensun.org 4000 durnable french muds >4. First MUD Multi All-Nighter Ummm not till college Im not sure if beer is neg points, but I imagine St pauli and corona are not bonus, so ill call it a wash >5. First Mudsex Somehow I missed out on this, perhaps its the dificulty of typing with one hand, or perhaps its because the internet is a giant pornagraphy distrobuter, either way Ive walked in on more then one couple in an emoteing frenzy, and I must say the very thought of it to this day makes me feel dirty, and because the guy referred to his penis as "Darth Vader the Nuclear Powered Arse-Prodder" I chuckle at the thought.... good times.. >6. First Death Trap FETCHING SPIDER WEB >7. First Comeback After Retirement (see #6) 'Yo momma' or did you mean return to the game? It was Aug 17th or so to login a level 1 cleric named grim to spout yo momma at axl.. Im so proud I didnt get him frozen and to keep it that way I guess Ill not relogin >8. First Beer St Pauli Girl, no bonus points >9. First Uber Item Would have to be the pimp vision sun glasses I won in a quest (5 dam 5 charisma hat ... at jedi ummmm I guess that would be a diadem i popped while trying to get some pslipps for mage squad creation... (no slippers didnt load) >10. First AVTR+ Chiba... poor chilly bastard
