Walking through Wally World today, LW looked up at me and said, “Dad, was that a real parrot?”
– “Huh?”
– “That boy had a bird on his lap.”
– “Really? You’re the one with the eagle eyes. Let’s go back and check.”
Sure enough, sitting in the gardening area waiting for his mother to finish shopping was a [...]

Thursday LW graduated from kindergarten. What!?! Wasn’t he a baby last week? When did he get so big? Soon we may have to remove the L and just refer to him as W. Nope, never mind, can’t happen. We don’t like the original Dubya in our house, so I will not call my child by [...]

Well, we did it again. With the wife and mother-in-law out of town, LW and I decided we needed to hit the trail. Originally, I wanted to head to Red Rock Canyon for a cache and then a movie with Grandma, but homework has kept me close to home.
We found the Easter Bunny’s [...]

A friend and my wife dragged her husband and me to see Slumdog Millionaire on Saturday. I hadn’t seen the preview and the title did not encourage my interest. Although it won several Golden Globes, I just wasn’t interested in seeing this film.
I’m glad I did. This is one of the best films I’ve seen in [...]

I found this on “On a Limb with Claudia.” It’s about three minutes long and totally worth the time.

If you don’t watch The Big Bang Theory, you should. It is the funniest and smartest comedy on TV.
I laughed so hard during this scene… um, well, let’s just say I laughed really hard and was lucky I didn’t have to change clothes.
The setup:
Sheldon is distressed because Penny has gotten him a gift. He states [...]
