What goes on in the off season?
People have babies, that's what.
While we had our backs turned Marcos slipped one past the goalie and came up with this little bundle of joy, who as you can see, shares his dad's love for knit caps.
Apparently his name is D. Oliver Miller-Nichols, which sounds more like a law firm to me, so lets just call him baby-dee, mkay?
Well, The Big D arrived on Jan 2nd, and weighed in at a very health 8.5 lbs. while touching the tape at 21 inches.
Jan 2nd? Well, yes, as you know that happens to be the eighth day of Christmas, which would entitle you to eight "maids a-milking" from your true love, and that comes particularly handy when you're being breastfed.
Also OTDIH? Well [deep breath] UK captures Calcutta, Georgia ratifies the Constitution, Poland is partitioned (not for the last time), the planet Vulcan is "discovered", Brigham Young is arrested for bigamy, the Russsian fleet surrenders to Japan in Port Arthur, the Liberty Ship program is announced, King Zog of Albania abdicates (no really), JFK announces his candidacy for president, the Jets sign Joe Namath, the national speed limit is lowered to 55mph to conserve gas, the Yorkshire Ripper is arrested, Stardust flies past Comet Wild 2, the Sago Mine Disaster happens and the Redwings retire Steve Yzerman's jersey [phew].
Birthdays? Isaac Assimov, Jim Bakker, Dennis Hastert, Hugh Shelton, Jack Hanna, David Cone, Tia Carrere, Cuba Gooding Jr., Christy Turlington, Tommy Morrison, Reuben Thorne and Kate Bosworth. Just to name a few.
Welcome, D-Man.
