I'm an Uncle!
He was just under 6 lbs, and about 35.5 weeks old. Mom and baby are doing well.

Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye Heavenly Host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.

Super Tecmo Bowl is real
Now that is Brown Bag special! I have heard of ways to update the rosters to get todays players on Tecmo. If I had Haynesworth, the number would probably be 200 or more.
If that wasn't enough, check out the NFL leader in rushing: (as if there was any doubt)Now, I know I'm not the best of Tecmo players and all, but couldn't they have done a little bit better?

Fine, I'll post something about last night
Did anyone else notice Obama kind of changed the way he spoke last night to sound more pastor-like? He's no Martin Luther the King. All the "yes we can" stuff seemed a little weird.
Like it or not, he's going to be president for the next 4 years. Hopefully it won't be too bad. We made it through Clinton's term.

Stuff Christians Like
This post about Upward Basketball reminded me of the greatest three basketball coaches to grace the Upward program in history. Adam and Andrew, what was the really skinny kids name that never scored? Do any of you still have our team picture? I think I tossed it.
I think the strangest part of our team was that Mitchell started hanging out with Mark Lamb EVERY SINGLE DAY. Go figure.

Breaking News!!
The levy has broken....I repeat....The levy has broken.
We have evacuated to the hospital.
Update #1: My cell phone is dead. If you want to call, use Laura's cell number (if you have it.) If not, comment here. I love wireless internet.
Update #2: (10:05 a.m.) The doctor just gave Laura some Pitocin to speed the process up. We also just called into the Rick and Bubba show so they could predict what we're having. They said "Boy". We might be in trouble. Or Evie might be really good at softball.
Update #3: (12:44 p.m.) Laura is 3 cm, 80% effaced, and Evie is -1 (whatever that means, Aaron?) Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. Keep 'em coming.
Update #4: (1:20 p.m.) Epidural is on the way...show me that needle!
Update #5: (3:44 p.m.) Waiting for a baby to be born in BORING. Laura is sleeping. They've upped the Pitocin. I'm listening to Pandora Radio. Andy McKee is my hero.
Update #6: (6:31 p.m.) 5 cm dilated. 100% bored.
Update #7: (8:02 p.m.) Well, it looks like we are doing this Julius Caesar style. Be in prayer for Laura and Evie as they enter surgery. Be in prayer for me that I don't pass out.
Update #8: (11:24 p.m.) Welcome Evie Jane! 6 lbs 14 oz-- 19 1/4 inches long. Born @ 8:40 p.m. on 10/20/08 via C-section. Mom and Baby are doing well.

Poll
A few facts about Jimmy:
-Born in Memphis, TN
-His billed eight is the same as his ACTUAL height. I think that's the first time thats ever happened in wrestling.
-He wrote the entrance music for HBK, Hulk Hogan, Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka
For me, Bret Hart gets the vote. You just can't get better than the Excellence of Execution.
on another note, I should have thought of this:

State of the Blog
What has become of this blog? I know that it times past that interest on the blog has ebbed and flowed. Babies have been born, jobs have changed, and many other things can take away our time spent here on the blog.
Gentlemen, for shame! We have been cheating on this blog with, dare I say it, blogs of another kind. We have forsaken the original in the name of our own independent sites. Are all the other spin-off blogs becoming more important in our lives? May it never be! Let us not forget our first love!
Viva la Edna Blog!
P.S. Check out the new post on mine and Justin's blog.

0-3
So I have been playing flag football in the Nashville Sports League. Last week we were out throwing the ball around before the game when the other team walks onto the field about 15 minutes to game time. "Who takes flag football so serious?" I asked myself when the team with their matching jerseys started to pull out their own personal flags. My laughter soon turned to fear when I noticed the words "MEAN MACHINE" were written on the flags. Sure enough I looked up and it was the same guys who beat teh S#*@ out of us 5 years ago.
After a few minutes of sucking my thumb on the bleachers I looked at my crooked finger and thought, "these guys are ancient, this is my chance for revenge." Well, the game started with the quarterback throwing out numbers just like old times and in three plays they had taken the ball down the field for a touchdown. Our only decent play was when I was rushing and the quarterback rolled behind the running back whose hands were behind his back (I was all over that since they took it from the Headhunter playbook).
Well, vengeance didn't happen this time but I figure when I am 43 (the age of their quarterback) those guys will be pushing 60 and they don't have a chance.

J.D.L..
With Landon having a baby and me finally getting internet at our new house, I have postponed the recognition of Justin's birthday. He turned 27 years old earlier this week. That being said, my birthday present to him is opening up the blog to everything we love about Justin Lipscomb:
1. He has a dog with almost as much girth as he has
2. He drinks Miller High Life (incidentally took a sixer of that to a party recently, got made fun of)
3. Allowed me to start a radio show with him in college on WTTU
4. His father's name is Jasper
5. His biceps are bigger than the Rocks of Gibraltar
Everyone else join in. Happy Birthday, Big Cat.

Analysis of Google Analytics
The Google search "magnolia tree david lee roth" has sent 225 visits to the blog. "ednahouse budget" sent 58. My favorite though is the the 3rd highest referred search. "Jennifer Foley watsons" has bounced 53 visitors our way and 98% of those were new visitors. Over the last month 14 people have come to the site after searching "andrew stacey memphis"has climbed to number #1. You students must be obsessed with you or the FBI is doing lots of internet background checks...
We have had 11,016 visitors from 48 countries in the past year. Including visitors from Iran, Ghana, Indonesia and 49 from the UK (thanks Ross and Andrew)

The Blog Is Dead
Today is moving day. In Memphis. In July. I've already sweat 2 quarts of perspiration.
Spent about 2 hours this weekend going back and reading all the posts/comments here on the Ednablog. It was time well spent.
Laura is 6 months along now. Every time she feels the baby move, I rush over to feel her kicking or punching. Nothing. This kid is already lying to me.
Bought a new TV over the weekend. Sony 46 inch LCD HDTV.
And now a personal message for everyone (vintage Ednablog move):
Aaron- Laura had a placental previa, but it went away so I won't be needing any medical advice.
Adam-See you in a few weeks. I'm a mess without you. I miss your scent.
Brandon- Congrats on your participation in the blog, however you are still not eligible for the Duke until you get your comment/post count way up.
Justin- How's the job hunt? Landscaping? Manscaping?
Landon- Father of 3 yet? Keep us posted.
Kevin-See you in a few weeks too. I have many jobs lined up for you: wireless internet, surround sound (the house is already wired).
Seth- Do your boys have armpit hair yet?
Ross- I'm ashamed this morning over our double forfeit last night.

Surviving the Game
I saw this today while watching Surviving the Game. The sound effects alone are worth the price of admission. Ice T asks Busey how he got that scar under his eye. His response is this:
Busey also states: "I'm going bare hands!" while fighting Ice T later in the movie, which is in the video "ICE-T vs THEM SICK MOTHER(LOVERS)" On this Sunday, let us thank the Lord for Gary Busey.

Neck tans and Ticks
I have a new job, and have had one for the past 3 weeks, and I enjoy it.
I'm working for Wynnecrest Landscaping, in the Mowing division. Basically, I do weed-eating and blowing (grass) a majority of the time, but I have run some of the mowers. We mow in Laurelbrooke (home to Mike Reinfeldt, General Manager to the Titans and a lot of other rich people) Carronbridge and the Enclave, all of which are Southern Land Company developments.
Some of these houses are SICKENING. There's one that is currently in the the middle of a $9 million ADDITION. I've been meaning to get some pictures but haven't yet. I will say that we cut Troy Gentry's grass, and he is a nice guy. I have encountered lots of ticks, but no Lyme disease or Rocky Mountain spotted fever (although if I had to go out, I'd pick RMSF. It would look good on a headstone) And I have never had this tan of a neck before. Check it out:
One fun thing about the job is that my mind wanders all day long. On Monday, I started singing:
"We're the members of the All-American league, We come from cities near and far, We've got Canadians, Irish ones and Swedes, We're all for one, we're one for all, we're all Americans!"
Yes, I was singing the women's theme song from A League of Their Own.
Sorry for the underwear, parental discretion is advised.
As far as the departure from Dell, I'll say it was long overdue. Much like Michael Keaton in "Mr. Mom" I felt really good about being unemployed. I have had a few interviews, but nothing has come of those yet. Andrew, send me the contact for the FBI. I mean, I could be Jack Bauer. I just took a personality test on 48Days.com and here's some of the recommended careers:
Homemaker
Flight attendant
Theologian
Performing artist
Scholar
Playwright
Philosopher
Apparently this test thinks I'm a genius or a woman. Go figure.

Landon and Seth, we can go ahead and line up a marriage with one of your 13 boys. A cage match will determine the winner.
