Alma Mater: Pink Justice!

POLL: Buttons!


Ever since I announced the Evil Inc buttons for Comic Con a few weeks back, I've been receiving e-mails and forum posts asking if I was going to offer them on the site. Well, they look so awesome, it's hard not to, so I'm going to offer them in groups of three for $3.

There goes the Neighborhood...


Last weekend, we took our kids to Pittsburgh to visit some friends. The other couple also have two boys who are the same ages as our own two, so we did a lot of kid stuff. One of the stops on our agenda was the Pittsburgh Childrens Museum. Surprise One was the the museum has reciprocity with the Franklin Institute, so my membership card got my family in free. Suprise Two was the exhibit dedicated to Mister Roger's Neighborhood. Fred Rogers taped his show in Pittsburgh, so it's no small wonder for the city to honor a Favorite Son, but this...
