Wow. That covers about six billion people.

You're all wet.

I feed our baby brandy and vodka. Keeps her from crying and waking us up all night. Why, most of the day and night she's no trouble at all!

When my wife had her baby, we had the infant's ears peirced and hung silver pentagrams from her ears. Then we took the baby to the local tattoo parlor and had "I BELONG TO THE DARK LORD SATAN" indellibly engraved on the baby's ass in bright red-and-yellow colors.

Does that make us bad parents?

Yes. We let our baby wander over to the swimming pool and peer over the side if she wants. Every now and then, between martinis, we might remember to look over and see if our baby is still breathing atmosphere.

Our bed is =WAY= too crowded with "guest couples" we pick up at the airport. No room for baby!

Our baby only hears the word "Yes!" Such as when it reaches for the hot stove, or when pulling down the hot iron from the ironing board via the cord, or when sticking a fork in an electric socket, or sitting on the cat, or playing with the loaded .44 magnum we keep in baby's playpen along with the fluffy bunnies and pink teddy bear.
