523.0. "Announcment" by CLUSTA::STORM () Wed Oct 25 1989 17:16

    I'm happy to announce that my son (2nd child) was born last night.
    His name is Matthew and weighed 7 pounds, and is doing great.
    
    My reason for posting this here is that I will not be very active
    in this notes file for awhile.  With work and a new child at home,
    I just wouldn't be able to devote much time to hunting.
    
    Being a responsible adult with clear priorities, I talked it over
    with my wife.  We decided the only reasonable choice was for me
    to take an eight week parental leave of absence from work so I
    can divide my time appropriately between home and hunting!
    
    I will check in from time to time.  Maybe I will see some of you in
    the field.  I will be the one with bloodshot eyes from lack of sleep.
    
    Mark,
    
    P.S.	If I bought Matthew a new gun now, do you think he
    		would let me borrow it for a couple of years

    Way to go!  A new hunting partner.  Did you get him a .22 yet?
    Lifetime membership to the NRA?
    
    I commend you on your clear prioritization of activities.

 Well done. I know I bought my daughter a new fishing pole when she was only
a week old, so getting your son a new gun should be no prob. :-)

 Congrats- and enjoy!
