My Wife Hates My Xbox

I Didn't Know This Blog Had a Pause Button

Don't worry, there's more coming here soon.  The fine gentlemen at My Wife Hates My Xbox have been flattened by work and fatherhood these last few days, but will be returning shortly. 

Lord Nerd the Chillest

Behold, this Geek Dad's coat of arms!

Make your own at the Scion crest site, and props to Ken Denmead on the Wired blog for inspiring it.

This Shouldn't Count as "Viral," Should It?

If you employ every viral celebrity for your viral video, isn't that effectively a rerun?  Or worse, a version of "Celebrity Fit Club?"

That being said, you have to respect the evolution of the hipster nerds in the band into COOL DADS.

RIP Alexander Courage

Over the weekend the man responsible for the soundtrack of much of my childhood passed away. 

Without Alexander Courage I would have nothing to sing while watching hobo fights, nor would I ever have associated creepy sopranos singing over orchestral bombast with green-skinned women (a significant problem if you've had the dating life I've had).  And let's not forget the credibility he brought to Nichelle Nichols' disco career.

RIP, my good man.  Best wishes as you enter the final frontier.  You will be missed.
