BotCon Photos
Filed Under General, My Progeny | 2 Comments
Sunday I took my daughter to BotCon. She’s not big into Transformers (to be totally honest I’m not what you’d call a diehard fan either), but she enjoyed the movie and was as curious as I was to see what the convention was all about. So we rolled out around noon on Sunday [...]

Guess where I’m going this weekend?
BotCon!
I’ve been to a few conventions for my various jobs, but never one like this. I’m not a die hard fan, although I did enjoy the movie and was an avid fan of the toys/cartoon when I was growing up (the death of Optimus Prime in the [...]

The first in a series of fifty two weekly humor columns is up over at The Dimmer Switch:

New Switch, plus an announcement of sorts
Filed Under Dimmer Switch, Me | 1 Comment

Today I have what would’ve been last Thursday’s offering of The Dimmer Switch had I finished it on time. I really wanted to have it ready by Thursday of last week, but I was unable to complete it due to (spins Wheel of Blame) the Germans. So show your support by reading the [...]

A local paper is running a reprint of one of my columns in this week’s edition (with some edits for space). It’s just the sound off page of the local weekly entertainment paper, a non-paying one shot deal, but still it’s fun to see your name in print outside of the police blotter section. [...]
