I took the young man that I mentor – Daniel – to a screening of Wreck-It Ralph at The El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood. We loved the movie, but we also loved playing tourist at the Chinese Theatre, looking at all the stars’ foot and handprints – and enjoying all the tourists there, too. I’ve lived here my whole life, but I still get a kick out of it. BTW, Wreck-It Ralph was absolutely TERRIFIC!
Coming soon:
The first article in this new series of differences between men and women took on how we handle money. This one is about how we communicate. As with every article in this ongoing series, I continue to believe that men and women are inherently different, due to our genetics, biology, and to some degree our environment and/or upbringing. However, I don’t believe the latter plays a big factor except when it’s horrific, like in the case of child abuse, severe disabilities, and/or illness.

This past summer, on a whim, I went roller-blading in Venice, California. I know my new friend Shaun White would have preferred I skateboarded and maybe next time I will on one of his new boards! In the meantime, enjoy the sites and my commentary as I roll along…
Jenny and Rufus Triplett – #DadChat co-hosts this week!
#DadChat agains stepped into the tough topics on Thursday, October 25 at 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET by taking on Racial Stereotypes. We’ve done religion, politics, sex, and now perhaps one of the most difficult and volatile subjects. Thankfully, we had Rufus and Jenny Triplett aka @PrisonWorld to co-host and they brought tremendous credibility to this issue. Read the transcript. Why couldn’t our candidates have such a respectful dialogue?
The other night, my wife and I watched “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” a perfectly entertaining, somewhat ordinary movie, with a great cast having a great time. At one point, two characters faced off and argued over who was the alpha person in their relationship. It’s quite clear who is the alpha personality in our home, even though my wife thinks she runs the show. And, I have the bigger mouth.
My first and likely my only Tourbillon watch
The Evolution of Technology blog series is written by Bruce Sallan and Professor David E. Weber
Our series continues with one of my favorite old tech devices: the watch. Yeah, a watch: analog and perhaps one you had to wind (do kids know what that means?). I had a love affair with watches when I was a kid so this will be a fun column to write!
