Sorry, Newsreaders!
I tweaked the rss files (.91 and 1.0) so they only contain the last five complete posts. So, if you get all of the last five posts in your newsreader instead of just this one, I apologize. I should be done playing for now. Why did I do it? Well, fifteen complete posts is a […]
I’ve Been Linked!
It’s an honor to be linked to by anyone clever enough to come up with this domain name.
Yo Yo Max
New Pictures!! Max has discovered some of the joys of yo-yo-ing. Why some? Because he can drop it like the best of them; getting it to come back up is the trick. This problem is compounded by the fact that the string is longer than he is tall (hence him standing on the dining room […]
Oh, I Meant To
After an extremely productive day (you have no idea – a complete redesign of a major product in less than 48 hours), I expected to come home and want to work. Ummm, nope. I took some pictures of Max playing with my old Duncan Butterfly yo-yo (which will go up tomorrow), showed him some old […]

Coming Attractions
Oh so many things to tell you about and no time to do it. In order to be prepared for the hopeful avalanche of content this evening, you should all go watch Revolution OS before tonight so we can discuss it. And you might want to read up on mushrooms, bad bad art and good […]
Bert And Ernie Call it Quits
Yet blue, and I prefer them medium-sized and red. I mean the monsters. Weird, but really really funny. Make sure you do the voices in your head when you read it.
Do You Have a… ?
This one’s from Jen: Heather, Kevin’s younger sister – note I didn’t say little – is starting to have multiple suitors. Max has met one, Jeremy, and has heard about the another one, Paul. Out of the blue, Max said to me, “Do you have a pa?” I said, “Pa? Yes, I have a dad, […]
