Another Happy Evening of Multiplaying Part V
I don't know if we still need to start new threads at 150 posts but I thought I would anyway. Ming, could you archive part IV please? (and thanks to Hydey for starting it when I was *ahem* indisposed)

So, are any of you going to be around Friday, Saturday, Sunday night?

Friday - out celebrating wicked stepdaughter's birthday.

Saturday - ditto, for some unknown reason.

Sunday - should be here.

Momma!
The finbar Hydey game descended into chaos. Hydey got nukes, attacked finbar and I don't know what's happening now

Its weird when you're on the edge of a war. finbar has nukes too, and a lot of troops. He could make a mess of Hydey.

Spaceships

I now want to get off this planet

Zap!
Trouble is, poor old Hydey nuked my capital but only occupied it with one unit. I wiped out his capital, moved mine, and reoccupied my old capital. He moved his capital, reoccupied his old capital ... talk about merry-go-round-capitals!

But yeah - Hydey with nukes in his mitts ... talk about rogue nuclear states. Or, in this case, rogue nuclear gardeners. Is the world ready for it?

what's the betting?
Faced with the prospect of a feral rogue nuclear gardener, what odds Horse is rapidly building SDIs all over the place?

Bugger!
Why am I letting work get in the way of my life? The last couple of nights I've had supposedly one-hour meetings starting at 6pm that have dragged on till 10pm. Tonight is likely to be another one, and I'm going to be out Friday and Saturday nights. I think it might be time to retire to a life of leisure.

Boom!
Just tell them you have to take a 10 minute break to launch a nuclear holocaust on someone who richly deserves it. I'm sure they'll understand.

Actually I'm going to Sydney on Friday, probably stay Saturday night as well.

We just bought a Mazda MPV Such a little baby, such a big car.

As will Hydey.

Bugger. You could have brought the kids over to play with Dermott. He's renewed acquaintances with the 12 month old baby down the park. He sits happily beside the kid's stroller while the kid pokes and prods and hugs him.

Jeez. Get her pregnant again and you'll qualify for a Kenworth.

Pull over, driver!
So when the pinheads are down the back giving passing traffic - and, particularly, coppers - the finger, how do you reach them to swat them?

Thwack! Kerpow!
No problem - they know I'm quite capable of stopping the car at any time just to get down the back and sort out trouble.

I've done it before.

The bigger problems are chundering, dribbling, spilt drinks, dropping hot food, icecream smears on the windows, farting, burping, snot on the doors and leaving perishables in seat pockets to have "later"

Will you please stop that?
I want my six weeks of blissful ignorance, please.

And Ms. Sneak loves being pregnant...wants to have a second ASAP.

God have mercy on my soul...

Dada! *burp*
Sneak, watch out when your holding the little baby and it smiles at you serenely - that usually means either their diaper has leaked sh#t over your best trousers or they've just burped a huge streak of milk vomit down your coat where you can't see it and you don't know its there until either people start laughing at you or it starts to smell really bad.

Little babies only smile when they have wind or are doing a sh#t.

Befriend your dry cleaner Now!

Sounds like some big babies I know as well.

I'm sure I'll have all sorts of fun surprises ahead of me.
My buddy at work told me about a load that almost made him puke the other day...and this is his second kid!

God bless dogs
At least dogs give you about 20 seconds notice that a hurl is on the way. A good bout of dry-retching, prior to the projectile stage, usually gives you time to get them outside.

Million Dollar Idea
I'm thinking of raising him in the bathtub--until he exhibits some control over his bodily functions.
Or maybe I'll invent some kind of baby ball, like a gerbil ball...then he can roll around the place without ruining anything.

The terrors of parenthood
Ah yes, the bathroom - the most dangerous place in the house for babies after the Kitchen. I hate it when they are in there.

I saw a few of you online Monday night as I was locking up the house. After the long session with Markus and War4 in the afternoon I felt I needed to spend some time with Mrs Horse.

Hope you had fun.

I'll be around Tuesday night.

My mate says you haven't changed a nappy until you have had the joy of poo up your nose.

Worst my little one has done is throw up on me just when I was going out to dinner.

Hi, guys, from an incredibly dodgy dial-up laptop connection in Spring Hill, Brisbane. I've been here for 3 days. I now understand a little bit more about Raz's behaviour.
