When I was a kid, my dad and I LIVED for the WWE. Every time they came to Pittsburgh, we headed down to the Civic Arena for the matches. The energy and excitement was unmatched. I’ll never forget the time we had seats next to the wrestlers entrance. I was on my dad’s shoulders as Andre the Giant returned to [...]

I’ve officially lost my iPad2. It’s not lost, lost, I know where it is, but it’s gone. It has officially been taken over by the boys. A few weeks ago, Matt and I attended the Time to Play Toy Fair in New York City. We spread out in search of the coolest toys that we thought the boys might be [...]
