Oh my God, they killed Omar!

You bastards!

Wow. Watching last night’s episode of The Wire I was stunned when Omar got dropped. I was holding the baby, leaning forward with my mouth open. Just plain stunned. Karen asked, “You didn’t see that coming, didn’t you.”

“Hell no.”

I’m still stunned. The one thing I would have thought I would have been able to guess about this story is that Omar would have been the last man standing. Or limping as his “Spider-Man shit” (per Marlo) left him with a broken ankle.  But that’s the great thing about this show – always keeps you guessing.

Introducing Miss Caroline

Monday, February 25th, 2008

Miss Caroline Grace Shaw-Gelman was born on February 18, 2008 at 5:16am. She was 21 inches long and weighed 8 pounds, 8 ounces. Since Darling wife weighs about 100 pounds or so, that’s a big baby!

Here’s her first quasi-official picture (it’s a little dark, but I didn’t want the flash to startle her).
