What are WE Eating? – #DadChat
What are we eating? What do our kids eat? California is asking this question via Prop 37 which is simply asking food manufacturers to include when GMOs are in our food. GMOs are Genetically Modified Organisms. This was a passionate #DadChat on Thursday, November 1 with respectful dialogue on both sides of the issue. Sadly, the official transcript is incomplete due to server issues, but below are the rough stats and I know we had over 200 people, participating!
Men vs. Women: Differences Between Our Communication Skills 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. Polls, #Politics, and Social Media – Where do YOU Get YOUR News? Radio Show: #BlogChat and #DadChat and #TalkThursday, October 25, 2012 Featured guests: Pastor Drew Sams for “Teen Rap.” Special Guest, Mack Collier (MackCollier.com) This radio show is loosely based on this week’s “A Dad’s Point-of-View” column, What Happens When Dad Doesn’t Talk? Also, #blogchat and #DadChat and #talk. Roller-Blading in Venice, CaliforniaThis 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… #DadChat Took ON Racial #Stereotypes 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? What Happens When Dad Doesn’t Talk? 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. The Evolution of Technology: #Watches 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! |
