The new and improved blog of Michael L. Olivier on being a dad, fatherhood in general, being a dad (again) and life in general. It is also a place for me to monkey about with new CSS3 and HTML5 tidbits.
Apparently she likes fire and money?? Great photos!
Clever improv on the costume design, Aud! But Mason's mask looked a bit off-kilter in some of the pics -- could he see??? Nixon wasn't half-bad neither !
I second your objection! As a former resident of the town, and now frequent visitor to yours, our daughter's, and grandchildren's home there, I also feel this is a genuine threat that should be vehemently opposed by all residents.

With a few warm evenings still in our pocket, we decided to take advantage of the snap warm spell and take the family out onto the [Read the whole post...]
I broke the screen on my iPhone last week. I had just filed for a replacement with Apple due to a broken switch. The replacement arrived the morning I missed my back pocket and dropped it onto the parking lot, shattering the glass. It was now, no longer covered for a replacement. It sucked.
