If you have a circle of friends spending a good amount of time online, you are bound to loose a couple to facebook…. and farmville…

If you spend enough time online, you get distracted like I do. One of my favorite time-wasters these days is There I Fixed It. A collection of ‘kludge’, you know, homemade repairs usually including duct tape and bungee cords.

Just in time for spring, they posted this video on simplifying your lawn mowing needs.

Enjoy!

Get ready to work on your dance moves for when you check out the great local music this weekend!

Yay, Baseball!

The Major Leauge season has started, so I dug up a classic for you this week.

And the Amsterdam Mohawks will be starting up shortly in early June, with opening night fireworks by McDonalds.

Take a break from spring cleaning – it’s beautiful outside! And while your at it, here is a great craft to get into the Spring frame of mind (1st day of Spring Saturday!!!)

This is a very different tp roll craft than most.   It ends up “larger than life” (about one square foot) and is fun to play with.

Although younger children will have fun colouring the pieces (at least some of them), the craft is really more suited to Age 6+ as it’s quite a bit longer of a project.  If you don’t mind doing some of the crafting, by all means do it with younger children. They’ll get a kick out of the finished product.  However, children will need to be at least 6 to do it with limited adult help.

Although you don’t need to be a kid, or have one, to have fun with this!

HAPPY SPRINGTIME!

Getting into the spirit of St Patrick’s Day next week, Friday Fun features 3 of the greatest voices in Muppets history!

And speaking of Irish, don’t forget Corned Beef and Cabbage @ The Canal Street Pub – fresh batches cooked up next Wednesday, Thursday and Friday! Now serving over 38 types of bottled beer!

Helping my son with some math homework the other day made me think of this classic Abbott and Costello bit…

Which then lead to this one about exchanging money…

Enjoy your weekend!

Inspired by the Mop and Bucket Company, in improve comedy troupe that we saw in Saratoga Springs on First Night Out this past New Years, I pulled up some old Who’s Line Is It Anyway clips to share with my son.

Here’s one that we enjoyed immensely.

It’s Friday! As the clock ticks down to the weekend, here is a fun video for you. Country Star Taylor Swift turns Rock Chick as she teams up with Def Leppard to sing “Picture”.
