Scott's Syndrome: Batman Redux 2

Thought for the day: "In a world without boundaries.. there's no need for gates and windows."

The posting: Well if you are like me (and most people aren't) then you love Batman... i however LOVE the old Batman TV show from the 60's. The campy-ness of it was genius and who could ever beat Cesar Romero as the Joker! Batgirl was the UBER-bomb. For a 7 year old boy in the 70's, even in reruns she was yowza. Anyway, while poking around the internet I found this original trailer for the very first Batman full length movie LOL... this is no Joel Schumacher, sexually ambiguous Batman for sure...

So get out your Utility Belt, Batarang, and Bat Shark Repellant and prepare for the adventure!

Anyway... enjoy! See you same bat time... same bat channel.

You can find the trailer here.

Family: Halloween...

Thought for the day: "BOO... err and God bless you."

The posting: Well it's that time of year again... when the candy companies gear up to get our kids carb and refined sugar addicted... and to set up the dental industry with income for the next year. This time is also known as Halloween. Unfortunately we do not celebrate Halloween. The reasons are personal, but if you research the origins of Halloween and some of the traditions behind it, you'd probably get a shiver up your spine. Call me weird, but it's my family and our choice so go on about your own life and don't judge me.. judge yourself. ;-)

Anyway, we go to our Fall Festival at our church and the kids have a great time without all the focus on death and evil. They can still dress up and get candy, but they also can play games and go on rides all in a well lit, safe environment. There were at least 2500+ people in attendance this year. The only rule is no scary or evil costumes, like monsters or witches, etc. Anyway here's some pics of the kids...

The family at Fall Festival 2005... ready for action!


Chandler is enjoying his sugar buzz...

Amanda has a constant smile... she's always giggling too...

Well that is until we put her on the spinning buckets... this is a typical photo... the other two wanted to spin around and have a blast... but Amanda has to drop the wet blanket on the fun...

Fun was had by all though... now where's my Tootsie Pop...

Family: Leo the Cat

Thought for the day: "I love my moss-covered, three-handled, family credenza."

The posting: Here's a pic of Leo, our chocolate point Himalayan. We've had him for 4 months now. He's 7 months old! Look how huge he is! He eats like a horse too. Easy to see why my allergies are kicking up. But he's a great cat and he's really helped my younger two kids get over there fear of animals. Best part is... he's not mine so I have no litterbox or feeding duties. That was my capitulation for having to live on Claritin D for the next few years... LOL

Family: The Arrows In Our Quiver...

Thought for the day: "Do unto others... then run."

The posting: I wanted to post some photos of my kids for old friends and family.... There's an old proverb: "Blessed is the man who's quiver is full". With three young kids my quiver is definitely full.

Here are the kids...

This is Sierra. She's almost 7.



This is Chandler. He's 4 1/2.



This is Amanda. She just turned 3. She was a little messy on that day LOL.



This is just another picture of Amanda and Chad...
