Star Trek – The Diaper Generation
The new Star Trek movie is coming out this week. Finally. It’s been seven million years since the last Star Trek movie. I’m a big time Star Trek fan, but my kids are not exactly Trekkers.

Super Heroes Are Coming Soon to a Theater Near You
As most of you know, my two oldest kids and I have a fondness for superheroes. That’s why we are looking forward to the upcoming superhero movies this summer. I doubt we’ll see any of them at the theater. Most of them are too long for my son. He starts fidgeting after about an hour. [...]
Acer Aspire Review
I purchased an Acer Aspire computer for my wife and kids a month ago. I have been impressed. The computer is a very nice entry system. It’s actually faster than my computer, which is a Pentium 3 system I built over five years ago. The Acer computer comes with the AMD Sempron 3200+ processor, 512M [...]
