Uncle Cecil, please welcome the first Doper baby to the world. Please?

After all, you did bring me and Robin together. And this is the first child born of two Dopers who met here.

I think it would be appropriate if you’d come in and say welcome to the world Aaron, the first child born of your creation, the Straight Dope Message Board.

[sub]Well, I’d appreciate it, anyway, and so would MsRobyn[/sub].

We anxiously await your reply. :slight_smile:

-Dave

Cite? I actually find that hard to believe.

Although I will congratulate the both of you, since I’m not about to look at that monstrous thread in which others are congratulating you.

Bon chance!

Congratulations to the newest Doper parents, and welcome to the littlest Doper!

Gorgon Heap, you can’t really have a cite on that since it would be the equivalent of proving a negative. Someone else could possibly cite evidence to the contrary, but it seems we would have heard about it.

Proof! I need proof!!!
Just kidding. It was half in jest anyway.

Congrats Airman & MsRobyn! Aaron should have marvelous typing skills.

Congratulations, Airman and MsRobyn!

Is there a thread out there that details your romance?

Congratulations!!!

And Cecil is yet to comment…

Psst…

Mommy thinks I’m napping, but I snuck on here because I wanted to send congratulations. Being a Doperbaby is the best!

Love,

the Beansprout

p.s. Please don’t tell the mods I used Mommy’s account. I don’t want to get banned before I can even sit up.

…you did name the baby “Cecil,” didn’t you?

What can I say, but,… So cool!!

Congrats to both of you and to baby Yanni!

So…where are the pictures?

Welcome, littlest doperbaby, to our wonderful, crazy, mixed-up world. May you always have health, laughter, joy, and all of your family around you. Blue skies, my sweet, with the occasional rain to make the flowers bloom and the grass grow. And you already have great parents who adore you bunches. You’re a very lucky young man.

Congratulations on the newest family addition!

Yay Robin and Dave!

how do you know that Unca Cec isn’t acting as a sock and already welcomed the wee tot?

post pictures of the critter! I would stick up a picture of mine (11 mo old now) but I don’t know how, and learning would interfere with beer drinkin’ time!

Congrats! I wish you all the happiness my kid brings me!


Damn! I have forgotten to not become drunken again!

Jumping on the congrats bus, especially since I was blissfully unaware of the whole thing.

Also, in remember aha’s plea to Cecil in the past, I am posting here just in case.

Acting as a sock??

A “Sock” is a user account that is created and used by and existing member. Usually used to ‘back up’ or support said users arguments et al.

They are bad.

Don’t be a sock.

As a semi-newbie, it does my heart good to see what a good online community this is. Many Congrats! Maybe your baby will be the Cecil 2.0?

Many congratulations, from north of the border. :slight_smile:
