Our fifth grand child Baby Girl Averie arrived 10:03AM May 6, 2010, 7lb 1oz, 19" and of the highest caliber. Both Mother and Baby are fine. The Garand arrived previously but remains un-named as of yet. I'm considering the Hindu for Tiger because my father faced down a Bengal Tiger and won with a Garand in WWII in Northern India - Assam.

That Garand looks terrible. I'll take it off your hands
