I tried a new beer this weekend while I was doing all the stuff-building and it’s pretty damn good.

Scarydad.com updates, news, and more!
Good evening my minions! How have you been? I have been very busy trying to make Scarydad.com into the best website in the world and as days go by, the plan is coming together. Here are a couple of updates:
Mezco Toys Jason Voorhees Action Figure Review
Good morning!
Well I finally received the Jason Voorhees figure that I discussed here a couple weeks ago.
This figure is pretty cool, although it’s obvious the manufacturer expects Jason to live in his box forever and not be removed. I know I’ve committed collector murder by taking him out of his package and thereby destroying any future “investor” value, and it would be just my luck to look at the internet next week and find out that this particular doll had some variant quality that makes him worth a bazillion dollars…
But I didn’t get him to sit in a box. I wanted him to sit on a shelf.
Dark Knight Shooting
I don’t have much to say about this. I’m just shocked and devastated. The thing that keeps running through my head are the kids. I’m not normally an “Oh my God! Think of the children!” sort of guy. But a few months ago we went to catch The Avengers at a matinee. There was a little boy, around 2 1/2 or 3 years old in a Captain America t-shirt who was at his first “big boy” movie with his dad. With each new report that talks about the little kids who were there last night, the ones who were shot and even the ones who weren’t. I keep thinking about that kid and how excited he was and I’m brought nearly to tears. Take a minute today to let the ones you love know that you do. You never know when you might lose them.
Summer Reading: ‘Salem’s Lot
I guess it’s a throwback to my school days but I always feel like a good scary novel right about this time of year. I normally read something new, but I think I’m going to go back and reread ‘Salem’s Lot. There’s just something about that story that keeps bringing me back.
Update on the move and upcoming projects
Well, I’m finally getting my office together and finding my stuff. I know, I know. I’ve been here a few weeks now. What gives?
Well, that’s why we’re called Scarydad. I have a sweet little critter that loves to hang out and help but she’s not quite big enough to hold a level. So, I have to wait until after her bedtime each night to do certain things. However, once she’s asleep I have a problem keeping her that way when I’m banging on walls and dragging furniture around. In any case, the process has been a bit slower than I would have liked.
