I bet I forgot to mention this

Number One Son presented us with another grandchild on Friday. His name is Calintz. Up to now, there was only one thing in the universe named Calintz: a character in a video game. Now there are two things with that name (Hey, don't blame me; I offered him money to give the kid another name, to no avail).

Mother and son are doing well, and Maggie is excited to have a little brother. I can't honestly say that a proliferation of Pacos is necessarily a plus for the world, but I figure one more can't hurt. Here's a picture of the littlest Paco after they hosed him down (looking a bit like a sleeping Edward G. Robinson)...


Please. Call me "Cal".

    Cal it is. And congratulations to the Paco clan, on adding another white male to the fray. We need all the help we can get these days, and probably more so in the future.

    That name may be a bit of a head shaker, but not bad considering some of the names I see kids stuck with in the search for 'individuality'.

    BTW, how is it pronounced?

    R-man: You can pronounce it any way you want to. I believe, however, that the accent is on the first syllable.

    Congratulations all around! Welcome to the world, Cal(intz)! Fine addition to the Pacos!

    Is Number One the tattoo artist? Then the concern should be a earring soon. Baby tattoos aren't legal...or a "thing", right?

    Congratulations, Grandpa!

    I imagine that a fully grown Calintz will have his name legally changed to "Cal". Or even "Rumplestiltskin".

    Deb: Yes, Cal is the son of the eminent Virginia Beach tattooist. I'm pretty sure he knows not to try any baby tattoos (legal or not).

    "Little Caesar". Well done and congratulations. I like the name, actually sounds like a Roman emperor.

    Cal .45 Paco?
    Can .45 be a middle name?
