Astros +1....again
« on: July 22, 2009, 07:01:20 pm »
That's right, Gleach doesn't get all the glory today.  My wife and I welcomed David Wesley into the world at 7:52 AM this morning.  Mom and baby are both doing great.  His big sister is also very excited.  In a minute he'll witness his first Astros game.

It's been a very good day in Astros-land today.  Congrats to you and yours, and welcome to the fold there David!
In the end, my dissolution with the game of baseball will not be a result of any loss of love for the game, rather from the realization that I can no longer bear the anger its supposed stewards cause to be built up in my soul. -Lee (01/08/2013)

Congratulations! Busy day!
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

Is my math off, or are we seeing the effects of Hurricane Ike?

Unless folks were still without power in November (and I guess some were?) then your math is off.

I seem to recall Houston hospitals reporting a significant spike in births 9 months after Ike, though

We (my wife) gave birth at the tail end of the Ike Spike.  Nurses in the L&D sectors were going crazy trying to keep up with all of the new admissions.  We were told we were lucky to get a bed.
And, no, Ike had nothing to do with our, um, pregnancy.
Don't think twice, it's alright.

Thanks, that would be Captain William Clark, of the famed Voyage of Discovery.  A rather obscure attempt at humility in my early days of posting that just kind of stuck.
