Ok....I am officially a geek.
This is one of the coolest things I have come across. From the perspective of a fundraiser, that is.
Please, if you are reading this in a feedreader, open the actual post on my blog and look at the right hand for the opportunity to help my family go on vacation this Christmas.

Teeth

I was stunned last night when my son pulled out his second tooth of his short life. I vaguely remember the feeling of pulling it out, but that didn't stop me from egging him on. The tooth was barely hanging on, but when it came out his eyes were watering and blood flowed.

I don't think I would have pulled it out. No....could have pulled it out. I..........am a wimp.

So, back to the amazement part. We grow up and lose a set of teeth that have larger ones ready to come in behind/below those. What a friggin' trip! Really. Think about it!

See what I mean.

So I did my tooth-fairy duty and put a nice silver dollar under his pillow after he went to sleep. How cheesy and fun it was.

Would You Like Some Meat With That?


Report: Meat Now America's No. 2 Condiment
I am amazed I missed this and didn't pass it on to you all. So, don't be surprised when you hear at the drive-thru window, "Would you like some meat with that?"

Cub Scouts, Cancer, and Video

I attended our first den meeting tonight and there are two parents out of seven video taping the meeting. It started me thinking about my ability to be a good parent without a video camera with me.

My question is now becoming more about what kind of cancer will "they" discover that you can get from shooting too much video of your children growing up. Especially of random tiger cub meetings.

I am also questioning the amount of video that a beginner video person shoots and where it all sits or goes. I guess I should be happy that Google bought YouTube and have acres of server space for my useless video of my child(ren) doing random stuff.

I can't wait to waste hours pouring over video to "save" on the internet while I sit getting my chemo treatment.

*the previous post is not intended to make fun of cancer or the tremendous treatment of chemotherapy. I guess you should just be aware of shooting video while talking on your cell phone.
