We have a winner!!
I’m in the office working this morning when Debi comes in to change Toren (the changing table is in our office). Everything seems fine and I’m typing away when Debi SCREAMS!!! I’m not the type of person who typically freak out when women scream, but this is my wife changing our son. I whirl around…

photos with Rosemary
The reason we did another photoshoot wasn’t to celebrate that Toren is now a month old (remarkable that we’ve kept him alive that long, really…), but to capture him with his Grandmary: Unfortunately, I got the lighting wrong for these photos and they ended up coming out with a yellowish tint. I tried fixing them…

Namesake Photos
One of my former students sent Toren a very thoughtful gift – Capital: Volume I (1st US edition to boot). Capital (or Das Kapital) is perhaps Karl Marx’s most famous work.

I Keep My Parents Awake Even When I’m Sleeping…
I had Toren sitting next to me one day while I was working. It started out softly, but eventually turned into this:

Rubber Baby Syndrome
When Toren is out, he’s out:

What Happens When You Have Scientists for Parents…
Debi wasn’t a huge fan of this game/experiment, but I thought it was intriguing: (Note: No Torens were harmed in the making of this film!)

Debi – Queen of the Geeks
Debi and I have never been the type to shy away from the label “geek.” We are geeks and we wear that label with pride: we like our science and we like our science fiction. But leave it to Debi to out-geek most other geeks by comparing her son to a Talosian: (You, too, can…
