“A” for acting…
…but an “F” for cheesy photo idea.
Playing with toys…again.

The ever-humble Superman
He’s a Demon on Wheels…
Before there was Mario Andretti. Before there was Danica Patrick.
There was… Speed Racer. You Go Speed Racer. And so he went.
I told Donna that I was a Speed Racer fan as a kid. Next thing you know, for my birthday a few years ago, I became the proud owner of my own “Mach 5.” It’s almost as cool as my 09′ Corolla…almost.
Toys, toys, toys.
Master Chief on Patrol
Eric created the set by himself and then called me over to take the shot. I applied some filters to the photo so we could add a gritty look. A little cheesy, yes, but a lot of fun.
A macro lens is still in order, but that will have to wait.
Top THAT!
Yesterday was a blah day. Cabin fever was thick in the air. And then I dropped a bombshell (as far as Eric was concerned). I announced that I was going to Walmart to purchase my very own BeyBlade. A wild-eyed Eric suddenly came to life, and so we were off to Walmart. I am now an official BeyBlader, and a very capable one at that.
For the uninitiated, a BeyBlade is a spinning top, usually made of metal and plastic. It will go through a windshield if thrown properly. But I digress. These things are simply the heavier, more metallic forebears of the “Battling Tops” of yesteryear. My point here? You don’t need exercise to remove the years – you need a toy.
