One of the things I have really enjoyed about watching my daughter grow up has been seeing her mind get sharper and sharper. I can really see it when we play games together, as we did last night at Little Shoppe of Games. I’ve always tried to make a point of getting and […]

Metal makes everything better.
I had this driven home a while back when I discovered Beatallica, the Beatles/Metallica mashup band. I’m not actually that big a fan of the Beatles, truth be told, but they’re songs actually become awesome when they’re Metal tunes, particularly when combined with some old-school Metallica lyrics to boot.
And Jessika drove […]

I’ve got a large backlog of games to play for quite some time to come. I’m really not hurting for ways to entertain myself at all. But in light of all the controversy over the latest edition of the Grand Theft Auto series, I figured I ought to go ahead and pick it […]

Another long full day for us today!
Things started out a bit grumpy, as I had to find a route to church that avoided as much of the OKC Marathon course as possible. As is the case, I assume, in every city that has a marathon, the race course is optimized to interfere with the […]

I was going through some files for an earlier version of this site and found my original photo gallery setup, so I had to download them all so I can start moving them over to Flickr. She gets that ginormous head from […]

My daughter loves to watch TV. I don’t really blame here; there’s plenty of awesome stuff to watch out there, some of it even worth while. Whenever possible, I try to make our TV watching time at least somewhat educational. Dirty Jobs and Mythbusters have been great for this, as both are […]

I got an unexpected package in the mail the other day.
I typically don’t get a lot of interest in the mail. Mostly junk mail advertising flyers and bills. And because I pay all of my bills online, I almost never bother opening those. As a result, I don’t always parse my mail […]

Lost certainly isn’t doing things halfway here as we enter the final set of episodes of the season! I had my suspicions about how things were going to play out starting with tonight’s episode, and I was definitely right about how some of it went down. But now, of course, I have even […]

As we were getting ready to leave the Little Shoppe of Games last night, I mentioned to Lane that I had been by Borders before coming out and picked up a copy of Cloverfield. He said he’d been wanting to see it, so I asked him what was on the schedule for Wednesday night […]
