Cheers, Tango.

Quantum's got the bestest, most bizarre middle names in teh whole world EVAR! I wondering whether we should attempt to compete. I like weird middle names.

And, Harrison, no, we won't know the sex until the next scan (21 weeks).

Well that's good news Boboss. I have the dullest middle name ever, so am quite jealous of those with interesting ones, though a dull middle name is a blessing at school. A friend of mine has the middle name "Dirk", which is quite cool in a thirties pulp hero kind of way.

I know a Beowulf who went by Brad in high school. Nowadays, his friends call him Bay. His brother goes by Gil.

Short for Gilgamesh.

Boboss i know you were thinking of a relatively normal name for your child which is totally fine with me & the big man by the way! However after some debate we have decided that if the incoming is a boy then his middle name shall be "ACTION".
Who on this planet is ever gonna mess with a kid called ...../ACTION/Boboss. Who? Fucking nobody that's who.

Agreed?

Good!

Nah, "Danger" is a much better middle name.

No it isn't, everyone's called bloody Danger these days. Besides you can be a twat and be called Danger. Have you ever met an Action who wasn't AMAZING?

No i didn't think so. Remeber "ACTION JACKSON"?

What a guy.

ACTION IT IS THEN.

Action's more for American guys with a dodgy set of chest hair and a dodgier mustache (which are sometimes the same article).

As Boboss is not a black sex machine who gets all the chicks but a Southern ponce I suggest "ACE". Strapping British name, wot?

15:56 / 15.08.05
Ah, but what if it is a lady child?

I suggest the middle name should be Tallulah or Fuchsia for a girl.

How about ACTION-ACE?

Fuschia? No, no, no, never, never, never - even for a joke.

Good morning Barbelith.

We're off to have our reluctant baby induced. Wish us luck!

Good luck, Boboss and Bobosso and Boboss junior(?). It's starting to sound something along the lines of the Moomin family. Weddunderance could be the Snufkin analogue, possibly.
Er... anyway the most positive vibes your way.

Good luck Boboss! This is great morning news! Bubblegum cigars everyone!

Boboss - good luck. Take a book (I might suggest Hinterland..?) because can be a fucking boring, long-drawn out process until the action-filled third act.

Remember to breathe and only push when the midwife tells you to.

We learnt the other day that 98% of women find labour/childbirth painful. May your SO (and myself in a mere five weeks or so) be in the lucky other 2%. (I have met many more than 50 people who have given birth, and none yet who did not find it painful, so based on statistics alone have high hopes for meeting one soon.)

Good luck guys, don't get too excited though unless you're going for a pictocin drip (which sucks, trust me) inductions can take days sometimes. A friend from my NCT class had quite a few attempted inductions (prostglandin pessaries, membrane sweeps etc) but only eventually went into labour 3 days after her waters broke. She said it was fine though 'cos it gave them plenty of time to get all their ducks in a row.

Oh, and Sax, the "third act" of labour is the delivery of the placenta, are you sure that's the bit you meant?

09:48 / 10.03.06
yeah, goes without saying really sunshine, have a good afternoon. y'know, elaine mainly, not you.

considering running a book on the following question: 'what are the odds of boboss being 'speechless' when the event finally comes to a delightful close?' odds for such a thing would normally be in the middle-billions but this is meant to be a rather special moment...

I'm guessing you have far more important things to do right now than be reading this, but it would seem churlish to use that as a reason for not extending my best wishes also.

yes, good luck to you all!

Oh, and Sax, the "third act" of labour is the delivery of the placenta, are you sure that's the bit you meant?

No, I meant "third act" in a more theatrical sense, ie when the screaming starts, the cussing gets too blue for pre-watershed ears and Boboss is told by his female-identifying life partner* that if he ever so much as points his dick in her direction again he'll probably find it being fed to the dog.


*Or "missus" as I like to say

MAY YOUR CHILD KILL THE FIRST PERSON IT SEES AND FEAST UPON THEIR HEART THAT IT MAY GROW AS STRONG AS THE HEROES OF OLD!

Translation: Good luck Boboss, to you and your family.

Nah, can't be any worse than shitting a bowling ball, can it?
