Is #SocialMEDIA Your Social #LIFE

Let’s begin by doing a short history lesson and questionnaire. Please understand that I am bringing my own family history to this discussion, which means we are covering nearly a century of societal mores. My parents were born in 1915 and 1918, married in the 30’s, and had me in the 50’s. My boys were born in 1993 and 1996. I had my first-born four days after my 40th birthday. A lot has happened during all these decades.

My Little Boy Is Going to College – I’m NOT That Dad #13

Sitting through my son’s first year orientation and I’m just realizing that  my little boy (who is not so little) is going to college

A Double-Header

This Thursday we are trying something new as #DadChat and #CollegeCash are having a double header! Join us at 6:00 – 8:00 p.m., PST as we discuss college, paying for it, preparing for it – us and our kids, and whether it is good for every kid! New columns are Friends and Politics and #SocialMedia IS the New Billboard. The new Because I Said So is on the home page and I hope you’re enjoying the GREAT artwork from VoogDesigns. He’s offering a great caricature deal for BruceSallan.com and #DadChat fans – just look at the ad on every page on this site. I skied my last day of the season yesterday and I can honestly say, I’m done – for now. Counting down to next season already!

The Boss

Went to see the Boss last night. Amazing show. Lousy seats and WHAT is with starting 70 minutes late? Hope to have some video to post soon. Took my son and a friend and relived taking him to see The Boss about a decade ago, when he didn’t appreciate it. THAT is the best part of parenting…so very cool to share these sort of things! New column is #SocialMedia IS the New Billboard as I continue to add a second weekly column that is usually more Social Media oriented. The new “Because I Said So” is really silly – watch out for “Dad” in the next SI swimsuit issue! Do you think in politically correct terms? I sure as heck don’t and express it in PC Lies – let me know what YOU think? Have YOU signed up for my newsletter yet? And, why not? No spam, just one weekly update that will keep you connected to our great community, #DadChat included!

A #DadChat Record

Last Thursday’s #DadChat was not only fun, informative, but we had our biggest one yet  – a DadChat record – with co-host @CarrieWilkerson: over 26,000,000 MILLION Impressions! Here is the transcript with every tweet and the stats. New column is up – is the secret is out about making money online? Who really is? I open up my veins and expose my plans in this regard! I hope you’re enjoying my I’m NOT That Dad vlogs. The tenth is posted. And, I invite YOU to vlog for us in this invitation. I believe that video blogs – aka vlogs – will be the Next Thing. Check mine out. Try it…
