Received today via email from a friend of mine:
An 86-year-old man went to his physician for his quarterly check-up. The doctor asked him how he was feeling, and the 86-year-old said, “Things are great and I’ve never felt better. I now have ...

The SJ-R reports today that the St. Louis Cardinals agreed to a four-year, $15.5 million dollar deal with catcher Yadier Molina.
This is outstanding news for Molina, for the Cardinals organization, for the Cardinal fans, and for me, being a Cardinal fan&...

Thought I’d finally put up a couple pictures of everyone.
Here’s Dawn, my lovely bride of nearly 10 years. This was taken in early November before her cousin’s wedding. Kind of makes you wonder how drunk she must have gotten so many ye...

I turn 40 today.
Not real sure how I feel about that yet. On one hand, it’s just a number. On the other hand, it’s 40. I’ve heard that men tend to have the most problem accepting their 40th birthday, more so than any other. Personall...

My “baby” brother works for the SJ-R as a copy editor. My understanding of his job is that he’s essentially a human spell-checker. I hope that does not offend him or his fellow editors- it was not my intention to come across as insulti...

On more or less the spur of the moment, we decided to take the boys on a weekend trip somewhere before Ian had to go back to school. Dawn actually was supposed to have all of last week off, but they neglected to mention that to her until Monday or Tuesda...

Ian watches the Disney Channel show Hannah Montana. A lot. Dawn and her sister Denise even took Ian and his cousin Maggie to see the Hannah Montana/Jonas Brothers concert in October at the Kiel Center in St. Louis. Whatever the hell that place is called...

Happy New Year!
I hope everyone had a joyous and safe New Year celebration, wherever you are and however you celebrated. I would be curious to find out how much Alka-Seltzer gets consumed on New Year’s Day each year.
We had a nice get-together at m...

2007 will be in the books in roughly 10 and a half hours, give or take.
Every year at this time, people make resolutions for the coming year. Things like “I will quit smoking”. “I will lose weight”. “I will quit gambling...

I’ve had a PlayStation 2 console for a while now. Dawn got me an original PlayStation several years back (quite possibly right after we got married, if not even before), and then we “upgraded” a few years later to the PS2. They were qu...

Okay, so I got a Lands End raincoat for Christmas, Dawn got a pretty royal blue blouse and some nice PJs, and Ian got a bunch of cool stuff {much of which I wish existed when I was his age}. What did Adam get for Christmas
Among other things, stitches.

Today is Christmas Eve.
So far this morning, we’ve had fingers smashed in the piano keyboard lid thingie (what the hell is that thing called, anyway), we’ve had Harold the Helicopter heinously heisted, and we’ve had a couple sets of as ...

Ian has bunk beds. His little brother inherited a loft bed from their cousin before she and her mom moved back to California in August, and Ian has coveted bunk beds ever since. So, about a month or so later, we got him his bunk beds. He was tickled.
A...

The wife and kids are at my brother’s house right now. My sister-in-law is having several kids over to decorate Christmas cookies with her kids. She does this somewhat routinely throughout the year, but with the impending holiday quickly approachi...

Last night I made waffles for the boys for dinner. I was scared to death, since I’ve never made waffles before. I’m not exactly Mario Batali. Or Rachael Ray. Or Cat Cora. Or Alton Brown. Or Bobby Flay. Well, you get the idea… I ca...

I am now a Stay-at-Home Dad.
That term DOES sound strange. I find it odd (and, of course, hypocritical) that when the female parent stays home with the kids, she’s called a “Stay-at-Home Mom”, but when the male parent does that, the gra...

Getting closer to the unveiling… hang in there…

Three weeks until I officially become a Stay at Home Dad and will be at least somewhat regularly writing here.
Please stay tuned…
