Alexander walks in to the bar, a box of coigars in his left hand, and a roll of C-Bills in his right. Just as some of the shadier patrons are about to jump him for the cash, Alexander clears his throat.
"Gentlemen, and Ladies if there are any in attendance tonight, it is my great pleasure to announce that I am officially a father of twins.
"My girls were born at noon on June 22. Therefore, I am buying a round!"
Chihawk begins dispensing the libations to the thirsty crowd. Once everyone has a drink (or two) in hand, Alexander raises his glass.
"Gentlemen, a toast! To Tristin Michele and Taylor Ann Alexander! May they get jobs to support their father soon!"
Alexander

Do not forget to bring your alarm clock to work so that you can catch naps while on lunch/breaks.
And to celebrate this joyous occasion I will have a double shot of double malt scotch ON THE DOUBLE please.

Congratulations to you and your family!! What a great occasion. Do you remember the 72 hour-no-sleep exercises (wait...you're Armour)? Well, welcome back... just it will last a lot longer. I suggest you start making whatever offerings you need so that the word "colic" does not come up.
How they will change your life ( and for the better)!!

"Might I suggest a few things... Antique Pistol, Gun cleaning kit, and a large sheet of plastic, olive drab tee shirt with Drooling Dog and spiked collar, and Battle Dress Uniform hat.
When the girls are old enough, and they have sufficiantly worn away your patience, start cleaning said antique pistol, daily. And allways ask "When do you plan on bringing ,my Daughter(s) home?", this will discurage young males from the desire to court yur girls."
(( Congrats ))

I have long bladed weapons that I'll be sharpening when said young man comes to pick up my girl....
The look on ther faces, when the Stone meets steel, will have a lasting impression... Or I'll leave a lasting impression....

I do have to agree that the sound of a stone running along the blade of a good sword can both a beautiful and chilling sound. IT all depends on if you are the owner of the sword or the recipient of the sharp edge.

No... I'm already planning drunken Army Friends, wepaons cleaning nights to coincide with said dates. Nothing puts fear in the hearts of horny teens like twenty hammered soldiers playing with guns and telling war stories!
