I know. This is annoying and kind of a little rude — my once-a-week post asking you to go to another site to read my post.

Halloween 2007
C0mcast and I… we are on the verge of a break-up. I’m sure my account is flagged as PAIN IN THE ASS CUSTOMER. But what am I supposed to do without a connection? READ or something?

Halloween Costumes
I knew it would happen. I knew eventually I would have to let the kids choose their own Halloween costumes. I was hoping I could get away with one more year of parental control.

Miscellaneous Parenting
I seem to have fooled everyone into thinking I’m some kind of rational being. Ha. Ha ha ha.
The truth is that I have quite a temper. I’ve always been pretty over-reactive and gotten into way too many unnecessary arguments. So what’s changed?

ESPN Guide To Parenting
Today on Parenting: My ESPN Guide To Parenting.
