Sports Cheat Sheet

This needs one more column for Canada: Hockey – which would be almost the equivalent of the non-US football column.

And yes, I would also subscribe to that twitter feed (in the hover).

A Well-Rounded Upbringing

Maybe *this* is why you want two parents – good cop, bad cop? Seriously, both genders can be a little over the top on their forte, having both extremes can provide the balance that kids need.

Dating Fails: I WANNA GO HOME

Even after 25 years of marriage, shopping is one of the most mind numbing activities that I can do with my wife.

Fortunately she usually takes mercy on me and shops with her friends instead. But every now and then we end up in a mall. I would be the guy on the right. Hoping that I’ve got enough charge on my phone to make it through the ordeal.

WIN!: Hiding a Television WIN

This is awesome. I’ve been researching mounts for larger LCD TVs for my back patio and this comes along to tempt me to put one in my bedroom as well.

Words of Wisdom: More Advice from Sagan

If you’ve never read or heard any of Carl Sagan’s works, you really need to open yourself up to the reality of reality.

There is more wonder in science than anywhere else that I’ve ever seen. It’s bigger and smaller than anything you know, it provides you with the tools to understand what you are seeing. This does not remove wonder, it enhances it.

When I look out at the majesty of the Milky Way Galaxy, it is infinitely more astonishing to me that every pinpoint of light is another sun or bunch of suns around which may be any number of planets and moons than if it were just a pretty glowing thing in the sky.

You grow and learn, childish beliefs and wonders fall by the wayside in favor of more sophisticated and infinitely more wondrous experiences.
