Aha, yeh... can access all of Europe, a lot of Africa and a lot of Asia for pretty much ~500 dollars return.

Will be my first time ever below the Equator!

I don't even think that I can get to Buffalo for $500.

The second largest Powerball ever and the winner is in California. And it so happens that the largest Powerball winner ever was also in California.

If you're reading this IRS/NSA I'm onto you.

We got a pool together at work. Each put in 10 bucks. 55 numbers. We won 4 bucks.

Good luck man, hope everything goes smoothly for you guys! Be there for your wife and do as much as humanly possible to help out. It's your time to shine now after she baked that kid for 9 months and will have just gone through battle.

Also, definitely cut the umbilical cord if the doctor offers it up. That shit is wild.

My poor father.

He has spawned 2 offspring. First was me. I came out with the cord around my neck and I was blue and didn't have a great APGAR (that might explain a lot) so the providers cut my cord quickly and carefully then observed how I took my first few hours of life because I could have had brain injury from lack of oxygen or a broken neck or whatever

Second time around my brother came out in a fit of rage and meconium, so he couldn't cut his cord either. No more kids after that

That must suck

Yeah that's a bummer. Your pops missed out on an adult-aged core memory, which are few and far between. I'm sure the fact that you both came out of it healthy was a good consolation prize though.

 

[Appleyard]

When I was born the midwife slipped and nipped my left collarbone with the scissors. Can still see the mark today. Few CMs higher and might have had a real problem!

As my Dad could not cut it as was in hospital himself having surgery for a sports hernia and some muscle tears!

Definitely. I remember cutting the cord for my son, and the obstetric resident was almost gleeful in show-and-telling the placenta to me and my father-in-law (whom my wife wanted in the room; whole other story). He wasn't as receptive to the anatomy lesson and I thought he would faint.

I was totally caught off guard by the doctor in the moment. The umbilical cord was the furthest thing from my mind at that point. I looked down and assumed I'd slice through that bad boy like playdough with those safety sheers, but that was not at all the case. I actually had to bear down a bit to get through it. It felt like trying cut a wet leather belt or something.

I always figured that if I had kids I'd be down in the hospital bar and get a text from the doc when it was safe to come up.
