Sean: I suspect that in my old age, this toe will cause me nothing but constant pain.
tommyrot: When you're retired, your toe will probably sneak out and gamble away your Social Security check....

Nattering...

tommyrot: Plus, random pictures of women in corsets. For no particular reason.

(Baby is currently sleeping. I know the traditional wisdom is "sleep when the baby sleeps," but I think the people who say that must not have cool new shiny toys to play with.)
amych: Is this the first-ever baby announcement in the technology thread?
