Vote for the Muppets in the Webby Awards!
Please go vote for the Muppet’s Bohemian Rhapsody to win the Webby Awards! The Muppets have been nominated for two categories: viral videos and music videos. Please vote for both categories. The following is a plea from Animal to go vote.
My new iPad
I now have a 32Gb iPad, and I love it! It is fun to use, and it is so lightweight. It will help my back as I carry around my portable school office because I will not need to carry around my primary computer. I will also be able to put textbooks on the iPad, [...]
Tax time and too much time on the computer
I have spent the last two days working on our taxes. Yuck! I really detest working on taxes, and that is a bit ironic because both of my parents are CPAs.
Spaceman Stewie

Blasted CD is Cracked Up!
I have been trying to move some files over to my computer so I can use them in my attempt to better learn the Blender 3D Animation and Modeling suite. But my computer kept trying to read the disk over and over. I rebooted. I tried to copy files, but some “could not be read.” [...]
