Baby's first phone call

I received a rather long message on my cell phone today that consisted entirely of a baby crying. Not a long, tortuous wail, but a soft cry.

It was either a wrong number or gubernatorial spokesman Jason Gibbs inadvertently hitting a button on his cell phone. Jason is the only person I know of who had a baby this week.

With the Monday birth of baby Addison (a healthy 6 pounds, 2 ounces), we will be hearing the governor's voice come out of a different spokesmouth for a couple weeks. Dennise Casey, who ran the governor's 2006 election campaign, will take on that role.

The governor's office's news release on the birth already made the quip about 13 more and the Gibbses will have one named after every county in Vermont. Grand Isle Gibbs does have a nice ring to it, but I this his wife, Amy, should have significant say in that.

Anyway, it was nice hearing from Addison, if it was her on the phone. She was right on message the whole time.

Comments:
Addison's gurgling was actually probably more coherent than Gibbs' statements.
 
oh please . . .

congratulations, Jason & Amy! Addison is a great name, very VT!
 
Isn't Casey that Steppford Wive blonde woman? Kinda rigid...
 
Terri you got it all wrong, that was Hemingway on the phone.

Something about moving out of state because nobody takes him seriously anymore.
 
anymore??
 
Denise Casey isn't the frigid blonde - that's Kiersten. Denise is the hottie with brown hair and glasses.

Cheers to Gibbs and his new arrival.
 
Not taking Hemingway seriously anymore? How about Freyne! He's so out of touch it's hard to figure out. Let's see:

1. According to Freyne, the impeachment movement in Vermont is overwhelming. "Everybody's" for it. Wrong. He's a fool or a liar.

2. Bush caused his cancer.

Freyne's in la-la land, and his column and blog, which seem to focus exclusively on impeachment and his cancer condition, are becomg a cult of personality.
