2012 - so far so good. Sure, there’s already been a big earthquake in Japan and dead birds in Arkansas, but that doesn’t mean the world is coming to an end, or even worse, 2012 will jus...
It’s that time of year when I should be neglecting my blog because I’m so busy with the bustle of the holidays, but instead I’ve been fighting inertia. I’m not sure if it...

I’ve been a fan of machinima since I discovered the built-in movie making feature of The Sims 2. I’ve been a resident of Second Life since 2009. And I’ve been a fan of the Euryt...
This is definitely a different kind of post for me, but I figure it can’t hurt to put it out there. We bought an iPad 2 back in March. The impetus behind the purchase was to use Facetime with ...
