I came across this (via the blogs that I read occasionally). Here is a post by Scott Adams (Dilbert Author and Creator!) regarding his take on Congress trying to tackle flag burning. My two favorite bits follow. First just puts it all into perspective with what should be important for Congress: I was delighted to [...]

Book: The Last Mortal Man by Syne Mitchell
This is the first in a series about the “Deathless”. The premise is that somewhere in the future, a person creates nano-tech to give immortality to humans. It is done by replacing our existing DNA with an artificial DNA/biology. This is the first in the series and is about what happens to the world after [...]
Book Review: Red Shadows by Mitchel Scanlon
This is part of a series called Anderson PSI Division. It is based on a somewhat if not identical future that the Judge Dredd stories are based on. Basically in the future, the world has had some form of holocaust which has caused the population to gather into “mega” cities. In these mega-cities, they have [...]
Back from Vacation
Check out the pictures in the gallery. I hope to have more posts about the trip soon but today was swamped so it’ll have to wait.
Leaving on Vacation
Tomorrow we leave on vacation. Yee haaaa! We’ve gone on vacations before. We’ve even gone on vacation with our boys before. This is the first vacation where we are not going to see someone in our family (we love our family but sometimes, you need vacations to be escapes) since before the boys were born. [...]
Mitchell’s Field Day
On Mitchell’s last day of pre-school, his school held a Field Day with all sorts of events. I brought my little video camera but had some technical difficulties due to low batteries. I still got a few short videos out of it so here they are: Here is Mitchell talking about his tattoo and his [...]

Vid’s from Mitchell’s Party
Here are a bunch of video’s from Mitchell’s EOY school party. 2 of them are kind of long (couple of minutes) so I’m sorry about that but they are pretty cute and I think the sound and video on them are all pretty good. Here is the first song his class did: Download Link Here [...]

Mitchell’s school had their end of year party today. They had a performance followed by a potluck and then plenty of children playing. I have a few pictures available on Gallery/CameraShots/MTSchool06 so check them out. Here is a cute one of Mitchell performing

While waiting in line today, I took a few pictures of Xander and his classmates. Take a gander at the other pictures in the gallery under /CameraShots/XTSchool06. Here is one of Xander and his friend Sam being pretty silly: Enjoy!
Xander’s End of Year Class Party
Today at school, Xander’s first grade class had an end of year party, a pizza party to celebrate the end of the school year and also say thanks to his teacher Mrs. Baugh (who is absolutely fabulous!). I was lucky enough to go there and help out and be with the kids today and I [...]
Book Review: Sieze the Night by Sherrilyn Kenyon

The premise behind the novels is that long ago the greek god Artemis created Dark Hunters from humans who died wanting vengeance in order to battle Daemons who are a result of the race of Apollites created by Apollo but cursed because they did something [...]
Book Review: Working for the Devil by Lilith Saintcrow
I really liked this book. It’s the first book I have read by this author but it’s quite good. It’s set in a slightly alternate timeline (much like the Anita Blake novels though the timeline is not the same one, it’s similar but it’s own). There are different kinds of magic people and magic people’s [...]
