Breda fires off the Quote of the Day (nay, the Quote of the Month) regarding feminism and gender roles:
Feminists, of all people, should realize that there is no "woman’s work." There is only work – and somebody has to do it.
I’ll borrow that one next time someone talks smack about stay-at-home Dads as doing “women’s [...]
I’m probably the last person on these Interwebz to link to this, but LabRat at Atomic Nerds has a fabulous post up on the subject of environmentalism, Global Warming Climate Change, and all that good stuff.
Science starts with a question and tries to find the answer. Dogma starts with an answer, and then tries to [...]
The FedUp guy just trudged all the way up to the portcullis of Castle Frostbite to deliver a package.
Turns out LabRat and Stingray over at Atomic Nerds have spared no effort or expense to provide us with caloric treats for the holiday season. Said package included a gargantuan Ziploc bag full of homemade peanut [...]
First Post of the Month (with first line excerpt):
January: On Primitive Computing. “A few days ago, I started a little experiment.”
February: Olfactory Memories. “A little while ago, I fed the dogs in the cold mudroom.”
March: Ruining a Good Run. “America is historically reluctant to elect a President straight out of the U.S. Senate.”
April: Get Them [...]
Please excuse the lack of substantial updates in the last few days. Most of my time is currently taken up by taking care of the kids, hosting friend MarkHB, and getting ready for Martha’s Vineyard. After next week, I hope I’ll be recharged and ready to forge ahead with full steam once more.
I’ll be driving [...]
I picked up friend MarkHB from the airport in Manchester yesterday, and he’s now slowly getting reacquainted to life in a place with no sales tax, cheap booze and cigarettes, engines with more than four cylinders, legally owned and carried personal armament, no CCTV cameras, and properly sized meal portions that don’t involve mint sauce [...]
I guess I can consider my life truly lived now.

A week from Sunday, I’ll be off to Martha’s Vineyard for a whole week of writing workshop fun. Rather than serve up five days of canned, pre-written scheduled posts, I have spared no effort to provide you with top-shelf entertainment during my absence.
From Monday, September 22, to Friday, September 26, The Munchkin Wrangler will feature [...]
Friend MarkHB and I were sort of comparing notes on our respective creative processes yesterday.
He’s an animator (the kind what spins pixels on a computer screen, not the kind what tries to get overweight tourists off the pool chairs at Club Med), and his work requires the use of some pretty heavy-duty computing equipment for [...]
Here’s the short version of my report on the 2008 Northeast Bloggershoot:
We shot a bunch of guns, and LaLa and Furby were executed.
Here’s the longer version:
My, we had a blast. I hitched a ride to the event with Liberty, who’s a fellow computer geek-turned-SAHD, and much fun was had on the drive already.
The company was [...]
