Van Halen concert review, Kool & The Gang and Billy Mack

The new Van Halen release is very good. I reviewed A Different Kind of Truth recently and the songs are surprisingly hard and well crafted. I also commented that there was no way I was paying more than $150 to see anybody in concert. Thankfully, my fabulous wife came through and won us some tickets!

Democrats declare war on stay at home moms, SAHDs jealous

I’m a news junkie in the body of a stay-at-home-dad. The story of Hilary Rosen and what she said about stay-at-home-moms not “working a day in their lives” if fascinating on so many levels.

Alicia Silverstone feeds her son like a bird, parents call fowl

My wife was checking up on Facebook and she casually asked me if I’d seen the video of Alicia Silverstone feeding her son like a bird. “Like a bird”, I asked, “You mean regurgitating it?” She then went on to ask me if I knew what her son’s name was.

My motto is that if they have to bleep out words, then it’s a station I don’t listen to with the kids. It was shortly after driving with the kids that I started listening to country music.
