Congratulations on your baby, Tax-chick!

About Dr. Laura- she tends towards brash overly siimplistic judgements, but that's just her radio shtik. She sounds so outrageous because her comments aren't P.C., and we're so unused to hearing that viewpoint.

Congrats- your baby weighs the same as I did at birth many years ago. Post a pic of him OK?
