Boyz in the Hood

What a gangsta (he was trying to avoid chores at the time, thus the excited look).

Concentration

Passing Weezer's "My Name is Jonas" requires strict focus and attention to detail.

I've got to say it is a little disturbing when your seven year old daughter is able to sing "Talk Dirty to Me" and "I am a Child of God" with equal facility.

*sigh*

Connected? My first mobile blog post

I hope this works. I'm excited about blogging from my phone - I mean, is this like the 90s or what?

The Art Critic

Say hello to my little friend, Maximillian Thanksamillion, the up and coming critic of the arts.

Upon completion of my most recent recital, I was walking down the steps from the podium, at which point I glanced at Max, who gave me an endearing smile, and then proceeded to raise his hands in front of him, palm downward, and then rolled them back and forth, back and forth, repeatedly, in the universal sign of "your performance was, how shall I say, mediocre".

Thanks Max! (Sadly, I thought so too... dratted colds)
