Between our The Evolution of Technology blog series and my other weekend technology columns, I’ve found that writing about technology and Social Media is not only fun but I bring, just as I do with my parenting writing, a unique point-of-view. How? Because: I’m NO EXPERT. I use and experience technology as a layman, but express it as a writer. My parenting “expertise” is exactly the same.

This is our Thanksgiving special and the column referenced is, “What Does Thanksgiving Mean to You?” and the discussion is about Thanksgiving, with quotes from readers, the Bible, famous and less famous people. Also relevant is “Ten Things I Am Thankful For This Thanksgiving.”
Yep, I made my own infomercial for my new e-book, The Empty-Nest Road Trip Blues: An Interactive Journal from A Dad’s Point-of-View. It’s available NOW as a PDF and on Amazon/Kindle. Oh, it is expensive – so start saving for its whopping $2.79 cost for the PDF and $2.99 for the Kindle version. do you think I have what it takes to be an infomercial star?

Bruce Sallan: One of the many joys of Social Media is the incredible people we meet. Many of these “virtual” friends as I like to call them, eventually become IRL (In Real Life) friends and many stay “virtual,” as has my friendship with Professor Griffin. We’ve gotten to “know” one another via Twitter and our regular participation in certain Tweet Chats.
Our Men vs Women blog series continues with a biggee: How we choose our partners. I sincerely believe this is yet another instance where our differences show up big-time and reflect our inherently diverse sensibilities. I will also declare up front my bottom-line conclusion that women are smarter – for the most part – in this area.

This show is loosely based on this week’s “A Dad’s Point-of-View” column, Thanksgiving Gratitude for the Whole Family. Gratitude at Thanksgiving is essential!
It’s Thanksgiving and we’re heading into the holidays! That means family. And that often means family visiting. AND, it means in-laws! How do you deal with “family?” Often not easy, is it? Dad is kicked out of his bedroom and isn’t too happy…The in-laws AND Thanksgiving – it’s just too much!
Larry and Nancy Sanitsky threw the Bar Mitzvah Party of ALL-TIME on Saturday evening, November 10th for their son, Nevin. They took over the top floors of the AT&T building in Downtown L.A. Clearly they also made a deal with G*d, for the weather was spectacular, with incredible clear views from the top of this building. The ceremony took place as the sun set. The party was split between an adult area and kid area with both getting incredible music, food, and spirits. Larry put on an amazing show which is fully captured in this video – don’t miss it! I got to re-connect with old showbiz friends I hadn’t seen in years like my former partner Allen Shapiro, long-time friends Sam and Shanit Schwartz, Ilene Kahn Power, and so many of their kids that I’d not seen since they were little. It felt like a reunion. It was spectacular and this video just gives you a hint of the evening! Enjoy!
