Congrats to all the pending parents around here!

When I had my first kid, it was the first time I'd ever been around a baby for more than a night of babysitting. I was terrified of changing diapers... so, naturally, my daughter rewarded me the first time I had her on the changing table by projectile-pooping all over the place while I was reaching for the new diaper.

What I'm saying is that kids will take every fear you have and make you confront it - and that's why they're so awesome. But they grow up so damn fast. My youngest is now headed to high school, the others are all away at college and working and living their lives on their own. I don't know where the last 25 years went, but now that they're over they went too fast.

Not sure what kind of personality your girl has, Rabbit, but that was like pulling teeth when I was going through baby names.

Some of the craziest names I've ever seen in my life. Once all the back and forth ended, we named my daughter Vivian. The rule was, if its not on a coke bottle, it isn't going to happen. haha

Not yet expecting but I talked often with my girl about future baby names and she comes up with some crazy ones. I think she picks names from Instagram girls' modeling names. I'll have to tell her about the Coke bottle rule, I like that.

Whatever you do, do not let her Google the "Utah Baby Namer" site.

Thank you Feck, the advice means a ton!

So the "breeding like Rabbits" line is still hanging out there? Congrats, bud.

I'm up for the challenge



I really like the name Vivian. Simple but strong. We don't like crazy names either. We like different, but not off the wall. We have a boys name set, we've had an idea what it would be for a while. We like the name Kane (not hockey related i swear.)

The girls name is harder. We have some unique ideas like Harper and some standard ones like Eva or Renee. Man this is crazy to talk about. Still in shock.

I was actually just throwing names at my girlfriend, some half serious and some complete jokes. I half serious said Wyatt and she turned it down immediately. A week later she looks at me and says, "I think I like Wyatt actually". My son is now named Wyatt.

We went through a similar process naming our dog, but more insane. I jokingly through out names like El Diablo and Purple People Eater. We settled with Nyx (Nyxi).

Wyatt is a great name as well! Like Wyatt Earp. I like your method, that's what we've being doing.

I've always wanted to name a dog Damnit.

"This is my new dog, Damnit."
"Come here, Damnit."
"Damnit, what did you do?"

I had a similar desire with a more profane word. Ali wouldn't allow it, but my dog is a girl with this super sweet and loving personality and it would have been hilarious!

"*****, get out of the garbage!"
"Come here *****."
"***** quit barking!"

I'm glad she liked Nyx though because its the name of a character in one of my favorite video games.

 

[YotesFan47]

Wyatt is a great name as well! Like Wyatt Earp. I like your method, that's what we've being doing.

It's a great method, you get to laugh and joke around, but at the same time you could stumble onto a name that works.

I do know a number of people who opted to wait until they saw their child to chose a name because they wanted to "feel it out". I figure if he doesn't like his name he can change it later.

Yesterday I became a Wikipedia contributor and started updating the Coyotes draft pick page.

List of Arizona Coyotes draft picks - Wikipedia

Still a work in progress. Need to insert the 2018 picks and finish updating everyone's stats. I looked at a few of the other team pages and some of them are 5 years out of date. Wikipedia is very useful but needs an army of free labor to stay relevant.

Doing this makes me feel like a millennial...young, hip, and cool. (I'm also growing a beard, saving for a Tesla, and started drinking VERY obscure craft beer that tastes like a banana split).

P.S. Do millennials say "hip"?

It’s hip to be square.

I did a handful of the seasons on that page ~5 years ago.

Problem is HockeyDB's and HockeyRefs pages keep all this automatically

That's what I was thinking. If it was built correctly it would pull from a database. I like the way those others sites organize the data too, and it's exportable.

You've crushed my spirit...my Wikipedia carer is over.

Edit: Something I already knew, but looking at the stats it is striking that for a team with such a spotty history, we've never picked higher than 3rd, and both of those guys did not contribute significantly to the franchise.

1OA - none
2OA - none
3OA - gone before their time (Turris, Strome)
4OA - none
5OA - never suited up (Wheeler)
6OA - OEL, finally!

Wikipedia attracts everyone though, not just hockey nerds.

Nah man, keep it up! You can be rest assured far more people will come across your handy work on wikipedia than they will on dedicated hockey sites.

On a side note, I donated money to wikipedia today, it's such an amazing non-commercialized resource and I encourage people to flip a few bucks its way to help keep it that way. I dread the day some shit stain company like Google takes over and starts monetizing it.

Thanks for the reminder. I just donated. The best things on the Web are not free.

I donate to wkipedia each year as well. Use it quite often.

I think the high operating costs are somehow going to involve lawsuits. They're far more dangerous on city streets than bikes.

"Injured scooter riders are flooding US emergency rooms. Accident rates could be as high as 1,000 per month."

Electric scooters are now disrupting wrists, elbows and heads

Will lawsuits sink the scooter business?
