I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh, msbelle, I'm supposed to remind you to not knit with chenille, since we're passing around reminders.

Hey, what are good new-mom gifts, if one doesn't know if the couple's registered?

I've phrased this badly. I don't want the kind of gifts one would register for, because I have no way of knowing if she already has them or not. And I may just go with a gift certificate, or ask about a registry, but I was wondering if people had unusual-type suggestions.

what are good new-mom gifts

Depending on the baby/family, I often like to give a token gift to the little bugger (bibs, towels, etc.) and then a generous g.c. to a take-out restaurant for the parents.
