I'm offically a dad at 2:15am today with a girl named Ella Grace at 6lbs. Currently, I'm tapping this out from the hospital room in much excitement. My wife said it was the first time she'd ever seen me cry... :)

    Grats Zingo!
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.
