I can now announce that my Wife "Carol" and I are going to become frst time grand parents in December.

My Daughter Chrissie who was married in April is expecting her first child.



You may have noticed the thread title has a couple of question marks at the end.

Can the forum moderators do something to prevent Vikesrule, Formo and especially Polargrizz from having access to this thread as they will make my life hell when they read this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can tell you why..............

Though I will probably be excommuncated as a Packer fan and banned for life from this forum with no chance of a reprieve.

For what I am about to tell you I beg forgiveness and please believe me it is nothing of my doing and I have told my daughter of the consequences but she seems determined to go ahead.

"What?" you may all be thinking "Can really be that bad?"

OK.............here goes.


CHEESEY FORGIVE THEM FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

If the baby is a girl they will call it "Tia" which is really quite nice name.

But

And this is the biggest "But" in the history of "Buts"

I kid you not!!!!!!!!!

If the child is a boy they intend to call it.














"Bear"

Thank you having me here and goodbye.

Congratulations are definitely in order Phil...so congratulations indeed!

I am deeply crushed that you would even consider the possibility that I would somehow use this as an opportunity to to make fun of the aforementioned "situation" ....you know me. :icon_smile:

First of all this reminds me of a humorous little anecdote....
A man was asked, upon learning that he was to become a Grandfather for the first time, how he felt about it.
The man replied " It feels great, except for the fact that I will now be sleeping with a Grandmother"
You may or may not want to pass that one on to your wife!

Now as to the naming of the young one...

Tia is clearly a fine name for a young lassie.

As to the young lad....Hmmmm....Bear you say. I shall take the high road on this one, and just say that it could be worse.
They could name him Lion!
Bwaahaaaa!

And on the plus side....If the young one is a boy, and in a few years you find yourself out camping in the woods with your grandson, you will find an answer to the eternal question....
"Does a Bear poop in the woods?"
(I cleaned that one up in deference to your future grandchild)

Again Phil, big time congrats to you and your wife, and obviously to your daughter and her husband!

While I can understand some of your consternation, some alternatives would have been less palatable to me...

See?

Not so bad after all!

10 fingers and ten toes...all the rest is gravy.

Congratulations to you and your family!

Congratulations Flep. To you and your family. Your daughter ought to be trilled with two amazing things happening to close to eachother.

lmfao!!!!!!!!

WOW! ....That would take a heck of a lot of laughing! ::razz:

Reminds me of a joke.

There's a bear and a rabbit and they're both going poo poo in the woods at the same time. The bear starts complaining about it sticking to his fur, but then the rabbit said he didn't have the same problem. So the bear grabbed the rabbit and wiped his a** with it.

This reminds me of a line from a movie I saw last night (Tre  -- which I highly recommend, by the way, even though it was panned by the critics). The couple has just gotten engaged that morning and are climbing into bed:



Congratulations, flep!
