Sure no problem. The only rule being that it must be legal to consume whatever
it is that you consume. So for example if you are drinking and you are not old
enough to drink and I find out you will probably get a free cab ride home and
asked not to come again. I don't think that applies to too many people here,
if any until Tim C. arrives, but just so people know.
Oh and before I forget. NLSO's are more than welcome. I know my wife will be
looking to commiserate with other NLSO's and I know of a couple others that are
probably coming so please bring them along.

I am sure they are not dangerous its just she has a weak stomach for hot food
and spicy peppers in particular. I doubt she would get close to them with the
smell anyway :-).

Thanks, It isn't really that bad and in many many ways I can't wait!! The
LEGO in the basement is kind of a bummer but I'll live. Most of the stress is
in the fact that my wife gets to experiance something that I have no possible
way of completely understanding. To have a living being inside of you just
blows me away. She trys to share what is happening but unless you actually
experiance it... I do think I was able to feal a limb or maybe the head the
other day (space is getting tight :-). That was pretty cool.
The other part of the stress is that it is probably the biggest life change I
can imagine. Bigger than marrage, bigger than owning a home, bigger than just
about anything I can think of. Thats a tad scary but heck we brought it on
ourselves :).
So don't worry about me. I just have to shuffle a few things around and I'll
be fine.

I can probably do that although I doubt I will get through an entire cigar. I
have a pretty big yard so as long as we get well away from the house I don't
think my wife will mind.
