I never rode a horse before and I was a bit nervous about it, but it turned out to be a lot of fun. It's like a slow motorcycle — Well I had a beginner's horse which only had 2 speeds: slow and slower. Still it was awesome and I want to do it again. The icing was discovering Orange County Chopper around the corner from the stable. Good times. Click the title for more pics.

We closed out Mary's birthday with an evening under the big tent at Big Apple Circus. Jagger and I are both circus virgins. Initially he was overwhelmed by the sights and sound of the circus, but the lightsaber perked him right up for the 2nd act.

I have no idea why we tagged along with Mary’s parents to Pennsylvania knowing that Jagger isn’t old enough to participate in any of the fun stuff, but at least we were out of the house and in the good sun.

The Canon 55-255mm is now my favorite lens. I can easily intrude into people’s personal space without physically entering it. Click on the thumbnails below.

Some good sun. Warm weather. A great day for some easter egg hunting. Check out our pics. Oh wait, that’s right. There are no pictures of Jagger sitting next to a big basket of eggs. Some impatient people couldn’t wait and did the egg hunt before we arrived. Thanks. Next year, we’re doing our own easter egg hunt at home. And a side note to some selfish nephews who didn’t want to share their loot with baby Jagger. Shame on you…All of you.…

I enjoy the holiday season, but I hate the holiday shopping — The long lines, the overly warm stores, the cutthroat shopping attitudes. I say no thank you to this abuse. This Black Friday, Mary and I went out early morning to run some errands and pick up some essentials. I thought I'd take a peek of what to expect during those last minute shopping runs.

His hair is spiky, his cheeks are big, and he's a tiny little fella. He started crying for food, and Mary told me Kitty (Did I get it right?) was bringing her food. Bring this kid a boob was the first thing that came to mind. It's a glimpse into what's waiting ahead for me, well for Jagger and Mary. Read more nuggets of gold after the jump...

I had left my contact information when one of these limited edition Stars Wars Stormtrooper hoodie comes back in stock. That was about 2 weeks ago and I'm actually surprised to get phone call from my local Marc Ecko store today. More after the jump...

If you love public embarrassment, go to Hooters for your birthday. Forget about the group of watiers/waitresses singing you happy birthday. instead you'll get up and do a little song and dance for the whole restaurant. See my unfortunate cousin get up and flap his wings. Video after the break...
