Of recent, my paternal grandpa’s health has not been doing so well. There has been much deliberation over the last 2 weeks as to his status and when the right time was to go and visit. As a last heroic effort, he was transferred to the ICU about 1.5 weeks ago now to have doctors [...]
Looking forward to calling my health benefits provider on my only day off this week (please note the hint of sarcasm), I was sorely disappointed that my Ooma phone system was down. The status tabs were blinking red on both the Hub and the Scout. I thought that my crap-connection Cox provides us had gone [...]

I purchased the graphic novel, Watchmen, last year sometime in anticipation of its film adaptation debut. I read it in about three days and finished right in time to catch the movie on Monday. Since the material was so fresh in my mind, it was amazing to view what many have said, is the closest [...]

Taking a look at the news right now and they are focusing on battleground states like Ohio and North Carolina. Took a look at this prediction map from [...]

So the wife and I sat down and watched these two movies tonight: War, Inc. and The Visitor. Both of which I have to recommend. The first is a zaney satire which made for lots of laughs. The other was a more serious film which really had some great messages throughout as it takes a [...]

As a parent, I knew I would have to make sacrifices to accomodate this life I helped bring in to this world. Knowing is not the same as life. I say this because Edison’s well check turned into a sick visit with the onset of a 100.4 degree fever yesterday. What was to be an [...]
