  • Game Night…

    Posted By admin on October 6, 2009

    Is going into it’s third night tonight. I taught my kids, (7 and 11) to play RISK. Risk a great game, I misspent my youth playing Risk with a close group of friends, while drinking horrific amounts of Mt. Dew. Good times? (more…)

    My wonderful off spring are homeschooled, which to those playing at home either makes my wife and I out as ultra-conservative religious types or anti-government anarchists (closer) or perhaps nice, decent secular folk who don’t think the government is doing an adequate job of teaching our kids. (DING DING DING! JOO ARE THE WINNER!) (more…)

    Zombies.

    Zombies. Yup. Zombies. They are real folks and we have to be prepared for this menace. There’s lots of misinformation out there regarding Zombies, their origins and how and what to use to kill them.

    Really none of that is important. It doesn’t matter if  Zombies exist, (they do, I totally suspect our greeter at the local Wal-Mart)  all that matters is that we, as Americans, are prepared to deal with them. It’s our duty.

    So anyway it’s a matter of preparedness. And preparedness sucks because it’s a lot of work. I’ll give you the ground work, (more…)

    So I was feeling Naughty the other day…

    So I decided instead to be Knotty.

    I got some paracord (way over priced at a Mil Surplus store) and learned to make this: Monkey Fist

    Pretty cool. I put a steel ball bearing in mine and use it to hit things hung it from my backpack. You learn too. Impress your kids, tie up your wife, etc. etc.

    Little outta my element. I’ll admit it. Not just at Blogher, but in this big damned city. As we were landing, the stinking street lights stretched off into the horizon.  Oh, this year’s blogher is in Chicago. It’s been a treat.

    The wife and I had a few problems right off of jump street. Southwest Airlines has a policy of over-booking their flights by 20 percent. We arrived, without confirmed tickets or boarding passes, went to get them and found out that we were that lucky 20 percent! Ugh …

    There were three of us, my wife and I and some morose looking redheaded girl, who, upon receiving the news that her flight was screwed up broken into tears. Thank god my wife has a sense of grace about her. (more…)
