I don't know what to say about this...

There's nothing to say, other than this is frightening. Funny, but scary.

Who'd have thought?

Foldschool is a collection of free cardboard furniture for kids. I haven't made one, but want to. I'm not saying this is revolutionary or anything, but it's creative and it gets big points for that.

Where not to live.

I'm not going to tell you where to live, but I'm gonna tell you WHERE NOT TO. This link shows various bomb scares, shootings, and other mishaps. Updated every 7 minutes.

Mashup time

This is an intersting mashup. In 1978 French filmmaker Claude Lelouch strapped a camera to his Ferrari and raced thru the streets of Paris. Thirty years later someone added a Google map to the footage. Thanks to Joe for sending this.

Fun way to spend a few minutes

Are you as confused by some of the terms creatives use? Me too. This is a fun game where you can learn some design terms, while racing against time to finish the game.

Historic day in the Kennedy house

I've been teaching Abby to read for the last four months. There are few things as enjoyable, as rewarding, as teaching your children to read. Or so I've learned.

So why is this a historic day? Because Abby read her first book. Ever. It's called Sid and the Mess, and it's a little reader from Kindergarten. It's 10+ pages long, and is about a horse who knocks his animal friends out of the tree. It's not the best book she will ever read, but that's not the point. The point is that she read it. And is reading it even as I type this, right next to me. It's the third time I've seen her read it today, and the enjoyment and pride that she feels about this accomplishment is such a rewarding thing.

I hope that Abby's life, like Maddies, is spent reading. That she read my favorites - Les Miserables, A Tale of Two Cities, Ender's Game, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Xanth series, A Malady of Magicks, The Lord of the Rings. I hope I can foster a love of reading now, and throughout her whole life. But today, she read Sid and the Mess. I think that's incredible.
