My Budding Magician

Munchkin is a fan of all things magic. Not only is he a huge fan of Potter, he loves illusions. Cris Angel is a particular favorite. Mindfreak is actually on the TiVo. He’s been bugging me for weeks to go to Eddie’s Trickshop, so today I finally gave in and took him. Thirty bucks later and [...]

Inappropriate Vanity License Plates

There is a woman in our neighborhood who has a sporty little convertible, a young child and rents a house with a roommate. All wonderful and normal things. Where I find issue is in her choice of license plate. As she is not married, I can only assume she chose the plate herself… SXY MILF [...]
