My cousin had a baby! Well, my cousin's wife, heh. Anyway, it's a boy, seven pounds and fifteen ounces, and his name is (no shit) Jaxon.
Speaking of odd names, the wingthing got on a naming website and picked out a name for herself. She's now Pari, which apparently is Persian and means 'fairy eagle.' (Note that this is not her birth name.)
Also, two things that are awesome:
Cracked.com's Why Megatron Should Have Fired Starscream Years Ago, and
Advent Children Ghostbusters. I lol'd.
