Eight isn't nearly enough

Seeing as how I'm a pretty classy guy, I'll forgo the rather obvious anatomical joke that could be made here:
It's a happy Mother's Day for an Arkansas woman — she's pregnant with her 18th child.

Michelle Duggar, 41, is due on New Year's Day, and the latest addition will join seven sisters and 10 brothers. There are two sets of twins.

"We've had three in January, three in December. Those two months are a busy time for us," she said, laughing.

The Duggars' oldest child, Josh, is 20, and the youngest, Jennifer, is nine months old.

The fast-growing family lives in Tontitown in northwest Arkansas in a 7,000-square-foot home. All the children — whose names start with the letter J — are home-schooled.
I knew a family whose four sons' names all began with the same letter, and I thought that was insufferable. Sheesh.
Duggar said she's six weeks along and the pregnancy is going well. She and her husband, Jim Bob Duggar, said they'll keep having children as long as God wills it.
Uh, yeah, you see, the thing is that with this one, you'll be able to field a couple of baseball teams. Are you looking for enough for a tournament or something? Enough, already.

On the other hand, these people must make hardcore enviro-weenies' heads explode, so there is that.
