Happy Happy Friday!
Well, I know it's just barely Friday, but since I've been out catchin' babies, I figure I get to bend the rules.  It just so happens that tonight was my first completely unassisted delivery. And it happened so fast that it was all I could do to not drop the peanut. (Mom does all the work - I just catch for the most part. Still, they're pretty slippery at first.)
In any case, I have to get up in 4 hours to round, but I just thought I'd share the moment with you all. It's not everyday that I get to do this, and even though it's not my own child, it's absolutely amazing to be able to present a new babe to his mom.
So Happy Friday, because it's a birthday!
Danielle

Morning All
Congats on the baby catch Danielle, that must have been a wondeful moment .
Hope the young lad is feeling better today Tim, thats a fever and a half!
Snow is on the way so I'm guessing I'll have to cancel the plans for the w/e and just bump around the house. Actually that sounds pleasant .
Hope you all have a great day
Steve

Good Mawnin' Danielle, Knuckelhead, Elliot, Tim, Loverotties ...Steve I know you're out there....and all of TRT!!!
Wooo Hoooo, Danielle! Way to go on that catch  That baby's got a good start to the world landing in your arms first thing. That's our gal
Oh no, Tim on Brigitte being so sick. Yup! I'd say that it's a good idea for Dad and daughter to take it easy today. Hope she's feeling better soon!
I hear that Raleigh area got a nasty ice storm that has paralized the area. No kidding! Hoping that Geoff and his family are doing ok.
Lots of love and hugs and peace to everyone!

Attagirl, Dr. Danielle!!! Great Catch! To help you with future deliveries, TRT is pleased to present you with the new "Dr. Danielle" Signature Catcher's Mitt:
Today is the Spelling Bee at FishGirl's school. She finished second last year and went on to place third in the County-wide and is really determined to do better this year. Of course, I'm pulling for her but just proud that she's in the competition.
Tim, hope Brigette is ok. I'd say the both of you need some rest today.
I was all lined up to 'catch' this beautiful buck jump the fence but he was a 'ducker'. He did stop, look straight at me and pose for a formal portrait, though!
Have a Fantastic Friday!
Dick

I know that's right, When my wife was delivering our fourth, the doctor got there just in time to catch him! I was thinkin' that I was going to deliver my own child...hhhmmm...I'd watched it three times before that...I guess I could do it....and I'd save big bucks in doctors bills! Cool! But he bumped me out of the way, caught the little bugger and went back to the golf course (at least that's what I figure he did. He came from there, even still had on his golf shoes! Cleates on tile...ouch) It all seems like yesterday, but that was almost fifteen years ago....man. Congrats on the "catch" Danielle
Anyways, good morning all! Have a great Friday
Pat

Morning, Steve, Pat, and again to you, Cath!
Pat, I wonder if the rest of that doctor's foursome waited on him to finish the round!

I know we're not supposed to shoot the messenger for bringing bad news, but I just heard the weather guesser say we're getting 6-10" of the white stuff tomorrow. Would it be wrong to use a shotgun loaded with rock salt?
I think I need a cup of coffee....where'd I put my gallon mug?

Yes, very wrong, Kevin. The best solution for bad weather is to change Weathermen! 
Good morning!
