First two years suck. Next few suck less lol.

But, it rocks.

Yeah I’m stoked. Weird time to bring a kid into the world, but at least she’s gonna have a good record collection, a few old guitars, and a collection of dumb vintage jerseys.

Sad I can't give like HoG. But you know I'd dap if I could.

We're actually expecting our first kid (TMI I know) in the spring, so we've been thinking a lot about names, and we hit on the same compromise that I have now. In the Czech/American system, our daughter is going to have a Western name (including middle which isn't common here) but she'll also have a Taiwanese passport and citizenship so she'll have a full Mandarin name too. She can decide which one to use where, but she'll need a Mandarin name for dealing with the Taiwanese bureaucracy and also my father in law puts a lot of effort into researching cool, old names so I'm okay with him doing the naming in that sphere.

Give like me?


BTW Congrats on the baby news mate. I hope my wife and I can share similar happy news some day soon. In any case, you already know it's a girl? Congrats!

Damn dude I just saw this.

Big big congratulations. Stoked for you, buddy. Will be nice to have one more good, intelligent person in the world.
