...as a father. Our young man arrived on Christmas afternoon. Both mother and baby are healthy. It's a very different experience. A good one but something I cannot really describe as of now.
Hope this journey just gets better and better with time.

Congratulations!

Have you thought of a name yet? Or do you want suggestions from us? (I'd suggest not, unless you want a kid called "Baby McBabyFace")

Haven't thought of the name yet. I am still planning and plotting to retain the only 3 drawers in the wardrobes (yes, plural) that I have to keep my stuff. As of this morning, I had 1.5 square feet of space to keep my motorcycling gear, camera and some of our documents.
I noticed that what used to be my sock drawer has now become "sock and absolutely anything else which could be stuffed in it drawer".

Thanks for the offer. I guess I will refrain from it.

Congrats. Your life has meaning and purpose now.

Congratulations, youngster! I'm envious, as I've never had the opportunity to raise children of my own, and now I'm far too old. But I've been blessed to help on more than one occasion, to raise some other folks' kids. All of them turned out to be spectacular people I'm proud to claim as at least partly my own, and my joy in knowing them knows no bounds. If I've accomplished nothing else in life of value, that alone justifies my existence. I wish you all the best!

I am surpised that this legally was "international waters". Most nations claim sovereign rights to the seabed 12 miles from the shore, but this cannot be more than a hundred meters or less.
Btw: Here in Norway, we reserve the right to throw you in prison for acts that are perfectly legal in your home country, acts that were legal even in this country at the time you performed them, even if you are not a Norwegian citizen or an inhabitant of Norway. As soon as you set your foot on Norwegain ground (e.g. as a tourist), we may arrest you, telling you that we last year made illegal in Norway what you did in your homeland ten years ago, and we will give you a few years in jail for it.
We don't to that regularly, of course, but in principle we could. We maintain it as a threat to keep away people of cultures that we consider incompatible with our own, but we have no legal right (according to international agreements) from stopping you at the border. So we rather say: Come on, but then we'll throw you in jail for having broken Norwegian law, long time before you even knew that Norway is a country.
These are moral laws, of course - not criminal ones. We are much more afraid of diverging morals than of bombs.

Hence, in one of the great documents of all time (U S Constitution), there's protection against just such things "ex post facto".
Such a capability is essentially a "Tyrants Welcome" sign.

So we have in the Norwegian constitution as well.
But we find ways to get around this limitation. One of the internationally recognized "excuses" is to label it a "crime against humanity". That is: It has obviously always been a crime, that is given by human nature. So everybody should have known it to be a crime whether stated in the law or not. Then we can throw you in jail, or shoot you. Even though it was not written down in the laws at the time you did your crime, it was nevertheless forbidden, because it always were.
That's the way they defend it. Morals are forever, and WE are the one pushing those eternal and true morals. Even though a multitude of cultures all around the world disagrees with us, they are simply wrong. True and everlasting morals are those WE judge by, and they never change. Breaking our universal, everlasting morals is sort of a light version of "crime against humanity". Therefore, we can practice the laws the way we do, in spite of our constitution and the UN Bill of Human Rights.

So - I guess we know who authored [^] your Constitution!
Quote: "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master—that's all."
Take that last line as double entendre

That's definitely a mistake, it's not "international waters." Use useless reporting/proofing.
However off-shore is under a different jurisdiction/authority (marine something-something) as compared to on-shore (parks & recreation.)
Mike: Next year some Aussies will do it, and like all NZ ideas/inventions claim it as their own.
