Up, Down, Touch the Ground
A few days ago Tucker (who is now 10 months old!) got a new toy, a singing Winnie the Pooh . It is really cute and he seems to like it. Whenever we sing the song he looks around the room for the toy so he is showing some associative recognition, which...

Ken is worried that my blog is defunct.
No, no, no - it is alive and well. I don't have much to say today after the spanking the Cleveland Clowns put on my beloved Cincinnati Bengals yesterday. It's also much too early in the fantasy football season to begin talking smack. And the normal late...
My daughter discovers the telephone
My 9-year-old daughter just came into my office and said, "Dad, I was talking to my friend on the phone for 40 minutes. Can you believe it?" I replied, "You are getting more and more like your mother every day." Share this post: email it! | bookmark it...

Memorial Day cooking
Like most holidays, Memorial Day is a day for me to cook some man-food. This almost always involves the grill and my smoker. I've been making some good baby back ribs for a couple of years thanks to my buddy Andy and his web site Andy's Ribs . Ouch, I...
Personal Update - May 2007
First I must apologize to friends and family who I usually keep some type of regular contact with, I have been slammed lately. I do see the light at the end of the tunnel, though. By the end of next week I think my life will return to its normal chaotic...
Desserts by Dawn update
I've been a bit to busy to post and they are starting to pile up. Hopefully this is the first of many this weekend. Desserts by Dawn , the company not the web site, is coming along nicely. Dawn has a verbal agreement in place with a local company who...
Coaching 8 year old girls soccer is fun
I mentioned before that I would be coaching my daughter's spring soccer team . I didn't really go into this spring planning on coaching, but they needed another coach and I thought I might be useful. I was a bit nervous about it though, as I've never...

We've nearly almost completely maybe made up our minds to move south
The last couple of weeks may have been the proverbial straw. Between the freezing cold, the damned snow, the sleet, the flu, the (bad word!) heating bill, the flu and just being locked up indoors all day... we've about had it with our beloved Cincinnati...

I cannot believe she has put up with me for 18 years!
Today is our 18th wedding anniversary. I can hear all the gasps now. I know what you're about to say, "But Dan, you look way too young to have been married for 18 years." Yeah, well, it's a gift - good genes. Or maybe it's just the acne. We were married...

The quote of the day on my Google homepage is: "My Grandmother is over eighty and still doesn't need glasses. Drinks right out of the bottle." - Henny Youngman This reminds me of my great-grandmother that lived to 100+ and passed away a few years ago...

The eternal Mother vs. Father fight for a baby boy name
I think I figured it out - why we have been debating for 8 months and we still haven't decided on a baby name for our unborn son yet. We actually gave up for about 3 of those months and just recently started talking about it again. We figured we might...
