The Desert Spear: Book Review
I can’t remember in the past year having time to actually sit down and read a book that wasn’t a Dr Seuss, Go Dogs Go, or something of the sort in children’s books. When a book from one of my favorite new writers hit the shelves, I just had to read it. So, about two […]

Geek Dad Report: Kids Shows Reviews
I really feel like a scumbag father sometimes when I just let my son watch TV so I can try to get some stuff done around the house. We try to stick to a 2 hour max per day, so that is about 4, 30 minute shows total for the whole day. Though my wife […]
