What's on my mind today?
Eli’s first Mets game was a success! He really seemed to enjoy it – for a good chunk of the game, he was staring off, seemingly staring intently on the action on the field. Or, more specifically, at the action on the giant screen. Eli, like his father, seems to have a [...]
This Sunday, on the Fourth of July, America will turn 234. But more interesting than that is Sherlock will turn 7! Yay!
Long story short: We adopted Sherlock on August 5th, 2005. Since he was adopted, they didn’t know exactly when he was born, but they estimated he was 2 years and 1 month old. (I’m [...]
This isn’t the first time that Led Zeppelin has been accused of ripping off another band’s music… Have you ever heard “Taurus” by Spirit? It sounds eerily familiar to “Stairway to Heaven.” Check it out, it really kicks in around 47 seconds in.
Well now there’s a new lawsuit that alleges that the song [...]
Dear Pixar,
I was thinking about it this weekend – you and I have a pretty unique relationship. I love you guys, and I love all of your movies. But for some reason, every time I watch one of your movies, you insist on making me cry. Why? What did I ever do to you?
I, along [...]
One of the greatest animated series of our generation, Futurama, returned to television last night? So how was it? I thought it was pretty damn funny. Yay – Futurama is back!
I really do think that Futurama rounds out my top 3 “best cartoons ever” list, with the other two obviously being The Simpsons and South [...]
It’s been all over the web today: Weird Al Yankovic told billboard.com that he only has three parodies left to record for his new album – and that Lady Gaga is “a great candidate” to be parodied. I, for one, totally agree. Not that I’m an expert on popular music or anything, but her music [...]
This past weekend was my very first Father’s Day as a Dad. In the end, it’s another day for me to get presents, so that’s always a good thing, right? I don’t wax too poetic on the “meaning” of the day – we should all appreciate our parents year-round, after all, but I [...]
For those of you who, FOR SOME REASON, refuse to go on Facebook, here is the first real* video of Eli laughing. Enjoy!
I know, my voice gets really high when I’m talking to Eli, I can’t help it…
*Reports of other videos with other people making Eli laugh have been greatly exaggerated.
OMG! Today, Nintendo just held an amazing E3 conference. Some of the highlights:
Donkey Kong Country Returns – A new 2D Wii game in the style of the SNES classic series. It’s like New Super Mario Bros. Wii, except with Donkey Kong! Sweet!. And since its coming out this fall, we [...]
I remember when I was a kid, and my elders would always say things like, “Back when I was your age, we didn’t have no fancy video games!” I remembered how I rolled my eyes, and thought, I’m never going to say stuff like that to MY kids.
I was wrong. I hereby present ten things [...]
