Mostly about my amusement

*Turns to Lily who’s reading the instructions to new her juicer*
Me: See? Who needs Facebook? This is why there’s an Internet.
Lily: That’s nice dear.
Well I like the Beatles anyways.
Her face at 1:09 says it all. No sympathy at all.
By the way, being able to upload and host your own .MP4 videos in WordPress 3.6 is a way cool feature.
The robot security was a nice touch but if I were that kid I’d hire that robot as a body guard.
Here’s a great short by Disney Animation.

I haven’t yet shown it to my little girl but I am sure she will love it. It’s something I picked up from my RSS feed via Fro Knows Photo.
I follow Jared’s feed for really good RAW editing advice and photo tips but watch the video and you’ll understand why he shared it.
Here’s the Wimoweh teaser video. I’ve already pre-ordered via Steam.
The original Borderlands game is still very addictive and I’ve played each of the 4 character classes. I’ve been looking forward to this game for months.
Tim Daly’s always good, but add Nathan Fillion and it’s just plain GENIUS.
The show is well produced and my favorite part is take 2 with Michael Rosenbaum.
I have a little girl (and a boy) who will love the movie Brave. I’ll take them to see it almost as soon as it comes out.
Thanks to The Mary Sue for sharing this.
I’m one of 4 boys and have zero experience dealing with little girls. That’s why I can say it’s different for girls but I can’t really say why it’s different. I can explain it and I sure don’t understand it.
My girl is talented and smart. She picks up all sorts of crafts without any effort and loves making things. Lily is like that too and our girl often impresses us with her ability.
Yet I find I need to reinforce that a) she really is smart, and b) she can do anything. She sometimes lacks that confidence and needs to be told more so than her brother.
The boys in my family, including myself and my son, have always understood these things. We know we’re smart (by divine inference!) and we’re only limited by ourselves (read as I’m also lazy).
That’s good and it made for some really fun and colorful knock down fights discussions growing up. That’s my parents fault and is how I was made. I like it and wouldn’t change a thing.
Although as I get older I do find it more useful to keep those details inside. 🙂
But I’m not equipped to deal with the confidence issues that little girls have. I just don’t have the experience. But I’ll continue to work at it and more movies like Brave will help.
Now if only Disney doesn’t screw this up somehow; I’m still miffed that their new movie won’t be called “A Princess of Mars”.
ThinkGeek has something really good coming in December. Seriously, I’m thinking of getting this for the holiday season!
That Virgin Atlantic Airways commercial made me think how much I like Nina Simone.
