Daddy Mojo at the movies: Cars 2

PIXAR has a high bar.  No other movie company has such a consistently high bar to jump over for any of their releases.  Cars was a good movie, but not a great movie, especially when looked at through the prism of what people expect from PIXAR.  With this background established I saw Cars 2 with a key member of their demographic, a 4 year old boy and his father.

Week 22-Mom and Dad your baby is the size of a papaya!

Moms, your little person inside you is the size of a papaya!  Dads, to put his in perspective, the next time you’re in the fruit and vegetable isle of your grocery store look for a papaya.  A papaya is one of those strange foods that is both fruit and vegetable.   It looks like a really large lemon with just a hint of dark green in some spots.

I’m in the store at least three times a week and aren’t sure if I’ve ever seen one.  There is a section in the fruit isle with all sorts of strange things, it could be in there, but some of them scare me.  It’s the island of lost toys for fruits:  there’s the brown, sickle shaped thick thing with thorns and somewhere in there is probably the papaya.  Unless your name is Gilligan or Beyr Grills you probably have no idea what a papaya is or how to eat one.

Dad wears a Land’s End Mesh Polo, giveaway and review

Prior to getting married I was a true slob.  I cleaned my house with a leaf blower, only wore rock and roll concert t shirts, slept on a futon that was on the floor and took cold showers for months because I was too lazy to turn the hot water heater on.  The only way I had a collared shirt on it was if it got arrested.  And I haven’t been arrested in more than 20 years, so that would’ve been impossible. Continue reading Dad wears a Land’s End Mesh Polo, giveaway and review

Daddy Mojo reads: Sgt. Rock, The Lost Battalion

As a kid I didn’t read St. Rock often.  A friend of mine had a big stash of war and western comics, like Weird War, Sgt. Rock and Jonah Hex; while I had Spiderman and Superman.  Mine were more mainstream and my friends’ comics had a historic feel like you were looking back at real events in time.
