That HISS drop hit like a bomb. I haven’t seen so many collectors so happy about something in a long time. I have only seen a couple of people complaining, and it was just minor gripes sandwiched with praise. Now me, I haven’t even opened mine yet. What...

I saw this meme the other day, and it made me think of one of my favorite memes. The meme I saw went, “Become OK with being the villain in someone else’s story even if you weren’t. Never forget people will turn you into whatever it is they need you to be so that their...

Considering most of my posts are a kind of “ripped from the headlines” of my life approach, we’re going to focus on Support. Notice that’s Support with a capital S, not just everyday support. I’m referring to the people who are paid to help us when something goes...

I have been putting off writing the post for days now. It’s the only thing standing in my way of putting something else off. Why are there things I just don’t want to do? They’re not even difficult. It’s not like yard work or helping someone...

Why is it that I am constantly laboring on Labor Day? We just spent 3 hours doing yard work. That was after camping for the second time in so many weeks. Setting up and tearing down camp is always crazy laborious. The one thing I can skip is writing about it. Now you...

I take for granted that everyone goes camping. I grew up doing it and have continued to go my entire life. While we don’t go nearly as often as I would like, we manage to go at least a couple of times a year. The older I get, the more I have come to understand...

It was a last-minute call, but I am so glad we got a chance to do an official SDCC show. Man, what a con it was too. If you were still under any misconception that toys are for kids, this show should have proved that we are the target demographic for these toy...
