Growing Up Online Free eBook & The Lorax Blu-ray Giveaway
As a parent the internet and social media are a bit intimidating. I’m glad that our boys are young enough so that I can get ahead of it, if just barely. I know that it changes quickly and what’s cool is suddenly not. However I hope that by dad having some foothold in social media I’ll be able to assist and ward off some troubles for them. Much like the internet makes activists slacktivists it also makes cyber-bullying much easier to do. Continue reading Growing Up Online Free eBook & The Lorax Blu-ray Giveaway

Win an autographed copy of Standing Up by Director D.J. Caruso
Standing Up is the film adaptation of The Goats, a popular young adult book that was written in 1990. It’s an anti-bullying film that follows the adventures of two tweens who marooned on an island by a group of bullies. The two kids are embarrassed and instead of going back to camp, go on a 3 day adventure.
While the story may sound rote for us adults, let’s remember that this is meant to be a film that’s enjoyable for kids under 16. However, watching the trailer for Standing Up my wife got a bit teary eyed, then encouraged at the happy parts and at the end commanded me to get this movie.

The Skil 360 Quick Select- fun to use & unlike any drill you own-Giveaway
It’s great when common and accepted devices undergo radical changes. The T-handle handheld screwdrivers were like that when we first got them. The Skil 360 Quick Select has some of the most subtle, yet radical changes to a power screw driver that you’ll ever see. The 12 bits are inside a revolving chamber, the device can be charged via a USB port and it has a light to guide you as you’re screwing something in or out. Literally all you need is Twiki from Buck Rogers to come out and start doing your work for you, but then you’d get all distracted by Erin Gray and you’ve got work to do, so hop to it. Continue reading The Skil 360 Quick Select- fun to use & unlike any drill you own-Giveaway
