Ridley Pearson visits Little Shop of Stories, May 3, 7PM

My family and I just returned from Disney Social Media Moms at Walt Disney World.  While I was there I had the opportunity to meet Ridley Pearson and hear him speak about getting kids motivated about reading.  Ridley was a very engaging speaker who effortlessly weaved tales about Dave Barry, 10 foot Pythons and the creative process of writing a book into an entertaining, linear story.  Continue reading Ridley Pearson visits Little Shop of Stories, May 3, 7PM

Mother’s Day is May 13.  Granted it’s in a couple of weeks, but if you’re anything like me you’ll get distracted.  Repo Games will be on television, something needs to be duct taped, bacon could be eaten and look a squirrel with a fluffy tail!  You and I mean well, but life happens, things get in the way and Mother’s Day will be here before you know it.

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.  It’s a great example of how a story can get blown out of proportion in a very short amount of time.

The Raid Redemption is a near perfect action movie

Is the headline too much?  A reviewer should leave something to the imagination of the reader.  However, The Raid Redemption is one of the better action movies that you’ll see this year.  After the first five minutes the movie rockets forward and never looks back.  Continue reading The Raid Redemption is a near perfect action movie
