Great, cool and funny post Special. Also very informative. As my niece would say in her typical teen Frenglish: "C'est full nice!"
ReplyDeleteI love it when Austin wears those white shirts. I don't know how you would describe his style here - open-collar relaxed cotton or whatever, hey I'm no fashion specialist :D - but they make him sexy as hell!
Great post SK!
ReplyDeletePress Now wrote in the last thread:
"I take it it is some sort of bubble jet printer onto the glossy film stock type of paper? Must be pretty far along for you to want to have a picture to take and show people. Anyone who has been through the modern hi-tech birthing process know more about this prints?"
I was just saying last week that a co-worker was showing me baby scans last week. When I saw those doctor pictures of Jake I thought it looked amazingly similar in size and shape to a scan. It's a glossy type of paper, quite thick but bendable, and is bright white and blank on one side. I honestly don't know if it is a scan, but that was my first reaction to the pictures.
Women can have scans from 6 weeks in pregnancy onwards.
I'm still a "maybe" about Baby Tile tho'.
Great post Special! Very funny!
ReplyDeleteVery cute; very missed.
ReplyDeleteGuys, at the HBO site they are arranging an ad for the Hollywood Reporter if you want to support it.
ReplyDeleteOne of the draft texts (the best! :)) mentions Austin, Brian van Holt and Ed O'Neill by name as Emmy worthy.
Hey guys I just put a link to HBO JFC Boards under Places We Go.
ReplyDeleteThanks Frenchy for the original suggestion.
And thanks Scylla for jogging my memory with mentioning the board working on an ad for the Hollywood Reporter.
Back to Baby Tile.
ReplyDeleteRemember that when they planed this pregnancy they may still have thought that Austin might be back on a heavy schedule with a second season of JFC. Doing it sooner as opposed to later makes sense. Also they may have originally thought of November for Rendition.
I remember someone posting on WFT that it could often take years to get a surrogate as you essentially had to not only choose the surrogate but she had to choose you. One wonders what went through her mind when she found out who wanted her to have their baby. Of course being Jake probably made thing happen a bit faster than usual. ;-)
Hey she got to meet Reese as well!
and Austin?
ReplyDeleteYeah, but as my friends' experience shows, PN, it doesn't always "take" first time despite careful timing. So delay may not be intentional. Just speculating :-)
ReplyDeleteThe method Ted reported was to mix the sperm of the two baby daddies, so both would have to be involved. Also it's better fresh, according to my friend, i.e. you donate just before it's used!
ReplyDeleteCool post! But I cannot get the pics to display
ReplyDeleteI can't get the pictures to display either
ReplyDeleteHmmm... I don't know why. What are you guys getting? Broken pics or exceed bandwith?
ReplyDeleteThe method Ted reported was to mix the sperm of the two baby daddies, so both would have to be involved.
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody know if it is legal to mix the sperm of two donors? I remember reading an article in which the personnel at one clinic said they would never ever do it but I can't remember if they said it was downright illegal.
Frenchy, I thought that what happens is that "officially" the sperm of only one person must be used so it is known who the father is. But when the guy goes in to donate the sperm, if someone else comes in too and also donates, no one has to be the wiser.
ReplyDeleteThanks wicked, it makes more sense. Also I guess in the U.S. regulations differ from one state to the next.

ReplyDeleteAww, thanks for putting on Arcade Fire today, guys. So great to hear it as soon as I arrived here. :)
ReplyDeleteI just realised it was a week ago today (to the half-hour, in fact) that I saw Jake in the flesh for the first time. Sigh. Thankfully he didn't experience the rain we're having right now, although it did rain a little after he went in the theatre.
ReplyDeleteI would imagine that it may be different for private sperm donation. If it wasn't the next best thing to do is sample heads and tales. Then the doctor tosses a coin and uses that batch. If they are using an egg donation then it is what you add to the dish.
ReplyDeleteBesides I can imagine that with these too guys it might turn out too be too much of a competition.
Yeah! My sperm beat yours!
This was from a link on Pink is the New Blog, but thought it would be appreciated here.
ReplyDeleteNeil Patrick Harris' Emmy Date
Jake is in Boston at the Sox Yankees game. They just showed him sitting on the Green Monster.
ReplyDeleteWicked
ReplyDeleteSorry Jake still has his beard.
On the fashion front, sporting a grey hoodie for the cool night at the ballpark.
Was Chris with him? Isn't Chris a Red Sox fan?
ReplyDeleteTomorrow morning we are going to Hilton Head Island for a week. Wish us luck- usually at the first rest stop in SC, Tink has a corgi meltdown and beats up the collie, Potter! Sigh. It will be a long trip.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't tell who was with him when the camera was on him. He was talking to Tom Werner one of the owners of the Sox. The were kind of half turned talking to Mr. Werner.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip Wicked!
ReplyDeleteTink be a good girl.
I'm hoping Austin is at the Austin city limits festival having a ball.
ReplyDeleteLOL, great post Special. I especially loved the Willie and Kinky comparisons. Have a great vacation Wicked, and good luck traveling with the "kids".
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip wicked. My heart goes out to you, the Ms. and Sir Pitiful Potter. I'm sure that despite her misbehavior Princess Tink will be treated with all the honors due to her rank. As my allergist always says: a dog is man's best pal and a woman dog's best friend. :D
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful trip, wicked! Hope your furry babies behave and have fun, too. :)
