Now for something comletely different...

Useful information

I know, I know. But it's not from me :) I am doing shameless promotion (who does your PR?) for Angela's new blog that will be beneficial for those with children, or grandchildren, friends with children, or just my childish friends.

I leave te serious journalism to Angela while I just ramble on about what ever strikes me - Angela usually! with the back of her hand :P I mean, who better to preach to you about what to do or buy your kids than a mother of 3 under 3! :D

Seriously though, good info, good links, great mom to my babies. I have included a snippet of the site to link over to should you wish.



OK, now I promise, no more useful info from me. Just dumb fun. What you all have come to expect - and luuuuuuv :)

A 10-minute Brazillian Space Odyssey

Some may remember. Others may wonder why. But I say, why not?! This piece is by Eumir Deodato & it's a sweet rendition of the 2001 theme song.

The original Richard Strauss is already such a powerul song, but this just goves it that edge, that flavor, added by the drums, bongos, & electric guitar.

What can I say, I dig it!

Back to the music topic

So, this morning The Ramones came on the cable station on the TV & I heard Miles from the other room trying to get the lyrics of the "I Wanna Be Sedated" song they were singing. He was singing along to the "bam bam, bam-bams" & pogoing around next to Dane. Super cute!

Can a dad be more proud? :)

Well, I don't know if it will progress to this, but you have to give this kids some serious props for taking the time to do this song in so many locations , with so much "flair," & to leave in humorous bits too!

Maybe one of the brood will try something like this one day...


Maybe ours will be to a retro Falco song... come on people. You remember, don't you?! Rock me, Amadeus!

:D

Allll-right. I swear, last clothing related item.

How can you pass this up though?! One of the great classic SNL moments from Jeffrey's. Funny, I don't think we'll find anything for the kids at Jeffreys.

A couple of great lines...

"Comeon, Diesel's hip." "Yeah, a hip that needs to be replaced." (love this one as I wear the same Diesel belt that I have had for years :P

"I don't come to your work & knock the corndog out of your hand"

"Why don't you go back to Kansas & fry some baloney & adjust the cinder blocks your house sits on. NK?"

Because you can't help them learn to love music too early

This comes from a friend/coworker, Michele, who gave one of these sweet guitars as a gift to her sister's kid. I am passing this along to all of you should you be looking for all things musical.


We tend to be a family that exposes our kids to quite a range of music (though not so many instruments - we're not the Partridge Family yet) & so they know all the standard kids music plus Alt Rock, House, Disco, County, Rap, Punk, Rock, etc. All the goodies. They even know what my records (yes, I mean records...vinyl, LPs, wax) & turntable are & what they do. Love my kids! :)

Angela was good enough to get some appropriate attire just the other day to reflect these choice bits of knowledge...

Who could ask for a better girl by your side?! :) Love my wife!

And then, these are the kinds of shirts we love them to wear & express. Man! I have got to start my own t-shirt company so I an get my kids in these pics! :P


Rock on! Babies
