The Adventure of the Swimmie Diapers. (scatological humor involved)

June 8, 2010

I have a long, awkward, complicated relationship with swimmie diapers.  When I was in college, I was a security guard at a Holiday Inn in Florida for one summer.  One of my primary jobs was to ensure that children of diapered age were properly adorned.  I’d carry around a pink/purple stack of swimmies and approach [...]

Potty Training in a Public Restroom.

May 17, 2010

I used to be a Rapper.

May 2, 2010

No really. I wrote a rap (well, all but the first line or two, which I totally stole from my friend Steve) in high school.  I added a second verse in college for a poetry class (and got an A).  Finally, I added a 3rd verse a few years after I came on staff.  And [...]

March 2, 2010

Welcome to the second-to-last installment of our fun little weekly exercise.  This week we are going to go over a few more not-so-advisable names I’ve come across in our quest to name our next child something, um, biblical. Withoust taking up any more time, it’s week three of “Just because it’s in the Bible doesn’t [...]

(Not) Helping us Pick a Baby Name. Part 2.

February 23, 2010

Last week we started something. Here’s another dose of “Just because it’s in the Bible doesn’t mean you should go with it” This week we’ll stick with girl names. Don’t worry, the boy names are coming. Quartus: When I said that boy names were coming, I meant next week.  This name is firmly listed in [...]
