Ho, ho, ho, to the bottle I go
to heal my heart and drown my woe!
Rain may fall and wind may blow,
and many miles be still to go,
but under a tall tree I will lie!

Fredding training will begin soon.
You know, that will really get her ahead!  She'll be learning to program before most can even read.  Glad she wont end up like the idiots I saw back in school.

...my 3.5 year old can read any logical* English word of up to 5 letters... :nervous:

* "Logical" meaning it sounds the way it's spelled. So, "run" and "jump" are fine, whereas "light" or "tune" aren't.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Actually, I think the first HLP baby was übermetroid's kid, but this may be the first with pictures. :)
Wow.  Did not expect anyone to remember!

Up to #3 by the way.  1 is hard until you realize what is going on.  #2 is easy.  #3 is crazy because they out number the parents!


Congrats!  Enjoy not sleeping!
How could I forget, with that famous thread?  And your original title, "Future father of samus"? :D

I remember playing a bunch of games in school that did simple programming.  There was Logo for the Commodore 64, and some sort of crystal game for the Mac.

Redstone might be a bit tough if the kid is much younger than freespace. If not, it's a good idea. FREDding is also a good way to get your feet wet with the entire make-computer-do-things mentality.
