Edit: Started NFSMW last November, not April.
It's been a long time since I posted on any of my blogs. Between lots of travel in April into May, a lot of work, and starting a new technical book for Sybex -- not to mention still trying to make time (and more often than not failing) to be a good supportive husband and loving, patient father -- I've had very little spare time, and what time I *did* have goes straight to vegging out by reading, playing Nick's PlayStation 2 (I started Need For Speed: Most Wanted last November, and finally finished it near the end of May), or playing the PC (I finished Alaric's Lego Star Wars and helped him get it finished too).
However, it's Father's Day, so happy Father's Day to all you dads out there. Mine has been relatively quiet and while it started off with a migraine, it's been relatively decent. I got a lovely brunch, a Tenth Doctor sonic screwdriver (which will look fantastic! with the rest of my SF toy collection at work), and the family is off hunting down a copy of Lego Star Wars II for the PC for me. I also had time to read a couple of chapters out of Castle of Wizardry to the kids, book four of David Eddings' classic high fantasy series The Belgariad.
Before I head back to finishing up the whitepaper (we had some medical issues on Thursday and Friday that interfered took time away from my work schedule without adjusting the deadlines correspondingly) I've been working on, and then on to editing more chapters for my book (more about that in a separate post), I wanted to share with you a thought-provoking little YouTube clip I found thanks to my daily blog reading. The remarkable thing about this piece is that it was put together by a 15-year old.
Thanks to InstaPundit for the pointer.
