What should be in a new member kit?

[hls30.com]

This is a special forum for us to think about what should be in a new member kit. Add any pertinant ideas, and read into what I list-not for me, for MIKE!

[DatsunDave09]

Are we talking discounts? coupons? links to the best sites for supplies and parts? Maybe even a "Who's in your area" thingy (What members live near you, kinda thing)

What exactly do you mean by "KIT"? Physical or electronic?

take a peek at what I listed...I think it will become obvious what I mean...

Maybe a stroller emblem set, a special license tag-two, this is for Oregon after all!

I think you guys have missed that MIKE has a new SON!

I didn't miss it. As all of us with kids know... Mike needs to sleep when he can because as soon as mommy has had enough in the middle of the night she's going to start handing him off to be fed, changed, walked around, etc.

Mike also needs sympathy because the wife isn't going to give him any when he complains about being up all last night then having to get up to go to work in the morning. But as long as Mike can pull through for the first little while, it becomes routine and he'll be a pro in no time.

Congrats Mike, hang in there and enjoy because they grow up fast!

Congratulations! This is a wonderful life-changing time for you. I was in this position about 15 years ago. Enjoy every moment because they will pass quickly. What revelations a child can bring.... as an example, the true meaning of 'unconditional love' eluded me until my boy came along, and that's just one of many things I learned through the experience.

As for the "kit"..... how about a 240Z that you, then you and he, can work on?

Congratulations Mike!

I would have voted on the baby factory service manual, but apparently they don't exist... here or in real life.

Now I guess you'll need to get a 2+2.

The closest thing to a FSM for a Baby that I have found is available for free from registering for the Publix ( http://www.publix.com/clubs/baby/Home.do ) baby club! I have to admit, it has no cross references part numbers, no service bulletins, but it does go along way the first time something:hurt: that scares the crap:tapemouth out of a new Father happens on his watch:surprised and you find out you are seriously overreacting:confused: and not the biggest dufus Dad in the world! Whew:beer:-Mike, as I have said in the forums many times-get the FSM-er, book!!

PS, this is good for a great many points with MAMA as well! just make sure she catches you reading it(right side up and open!)

PSS, one more Z related bit of advice-Ask Carl Beck how to raise boys-He has the best answer to keeping them in line-I have met Carl Jr., and it looked to me like his training was still in placeROFL!
