A Blog about Nothing.

The following blog takes place now…. 
So, someone, I won’t say who (you know who you are) made the comment that I write about nothing in my blogs. That is not true! I am currently writing something even now.
Anyway, I finally got around to my weekly updates. There is a new song that is a parody of [...]

Still Alive, but just barely….

Bo-kair  Tov, everybody! (That’s Hebrew for Good Morning, but I don’t think I used the right english letters)
Well, my vacation is over, and I am kind of glad to be back at work. Apparently several guys thought that since I had a vacation, they could too. When the cat’s away, the mice play, that sort [...]

Day 7: a trip to the Zoo, and what I do when I’m bored.

Wednesday, July 25th.
Feeling no where near better, I decided the best thing for us today is for me to cough and hack our way to the zoo. We are all excited about this, except for Erin, because she had to go to work today. I am excited, because this will be Sam’s first time to [...]

Day 4-6: Christology, Bibliology and the Common Cold

So, not much happend these 3 days. You wanna know why? Because the boys and I woke up Sunday morning sick: Sore throat, gushing nose, cough, and the general feeling that I wanted to die. Now, the last one on that list I usually feel everymorning I wake up, at least before I have my [...]

Day 3: Christmas in July

Saturday, July 21st.
While the whole world stayed home to read the new Harry Potter book (8 million + copies sold in the first 24 hours!) I decided to take advantage of the emptiness and head off to the beach. I took the boys and Rosie with me, so Erin could have some peace and quiet [...]

Day 2, Friday, July 20th: The Nerd Gathering

Today Erin and I stumbled through Literary History. I’ll explain in a moment.
This morning consisted of me doing nothing but bumming around the house, playing with kids, and ignoring my homework. Oh, and cleaning up doggie pee several times because Rosie just couldn’t quite make it. I think there is something wrong with her, genetically [...]

My Vacation, Such as it is, Day 1, Thursday, July 19th

Before I comment start entertaining you all about my vacation, just a couple more comments about the space program. I think it’s funny to debate what Neil’s first words on the moon were. I think the technical stuff he was describing about the moon would have been funny to remember as his first words. However, [...]

Neil Armstrong: Heroic Astronaut or Complete Nutcase?

Today is the 38th anniversary of the Apollo moon landing (if I did my math correctly).
My boys are celebrating by watching a Space Shuttle show on the tv show “Hard Hat Harry” on DVD that we got from the Library.
I’m celebrating by writing this. I kind of wish we had some kind of rocket we [...]

Dangerous Things that I have done…

Wow, two blogs within 12 hours of each other. I’m on a roll!
For those of you who know me, you know that I am a coward. I am not one to do anything dangerous, nor do I like risking my life for something. I think me wife put it best when she told me the [...]

It’s Really 1980, and other Important Issues like MAKING ME HAPPY.

On Saturday, my wife and I got to have a really fun date. We went ice skating, raided the candy aisle in a gas station, went to a coffee shop and saw a movie (not all in that order). We finished the day off with a take and bake pizza and some couch snuggling and [...]
