Brand New Blog Carnival Premieres Monday!

Posted on September 26, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging | 2 Comments

A few weeks back a friend pointed me to ForumFinder.net.  I have been unable to thank them enough for doing so.  As the name implies the website is actually a forum, but it doesn’t only deal with forums.  In fact, more and more it (like the internet itself) is being taken over by bloggers.

I found myself browsing old editions of the Carnival of Financial Learning over at Financial Learn the other day and stumbled across his weekly “So You Think You Can Save”contest.  Since I’m a (poverty ridden) romantic and last week’s question was about saving on a first date I went ahead and entered.

100 Years Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk

Z and I made our first joint trek of 2008 to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk last weekend. I’ve been unable to afford to renew our season passes yet, so it was a games only day (oh and Z finally got her first deep fried twinkie - she liked it :shock: ). Sometime over the winter semi-closure of the Boardwalk a couple of major changes occurred…

Question For The Educators and Homeschoolers

Posted on December 12, 2007 - Filed Under Education, Fatherhood | Leave a Comment

A quick welcome to all the educators and homeschoolers who are visiting today thanks to the inclusion of my Parent Teacher Conference Meat Market post being included in the Carnival of Education! If you’ve got a second I’ve got some some questions for y’all.

I’ve begun seriously considering homeschooling my 11 year old daughter, Z. She’s been in public school since kindergarten and I simply can’t afford private school as much as I wish that I could. I do, however, work from…
