Scott Baio is 46 and a clueless dolt…

Charles in Charge he is not. The new reality series Scott Baio is 46 and Pregnant is a follow up to last year’s train wreck reality series of Scott Baio is 45 and single. The show should be Scott Baio is a big baby with no concept of reality. I am embarrassed and annoyed every time Allison watches this show. She likes reality shows I cannot stop her obsession with trashy TV. I am sure we are going to see Scott’s transition from freaked out manchild to halfway decent/barely passable father. I watched part of this show as I walked through the living room with my own daughter. The show is insulting to fathers.

For one thing he’s all upset because his child is going to be a girl. I have a girl and she is the most special gift we could ever have. It says nothing about my manliness that I am raising a girl. She is an absolute princess in my eyes and I am glad we have a girl.

Scott wants a bigger house so he can have alone time. Man up you big baby, alone time is few and far between you had better get right in there from day one changing diapers getting puked on and the like. This is your child you are responsible for her. And you better help your wife. And not just wait to be asked or nagged, get in there and do it.

I hope that for the child’s sake this is all acting for the camera but Scott Baio is certainly no Charles in Charge, heck he isn’t even Buddy Lembeck. Although seeing the two of them get back together as a team would have been a better reality show than the two Corey’s. For one thing Scott is was quite the ladies man and Willie Aames is Bible Man. I can see controversy all over that one. And since they are both VH1 Celeb-reality Stars I bet VH1 could get a cheap 2 for one deal on them.

But on a more serious note I hope that for the sake of the child Scott grows up and takes on the role of the responsible adult and no longer the manchild that we are seeing so far.

You can’t call it ‘Crotch Rocket’ – PAD #1013

You can't call it 'Crotch Rocket' - PAD #1013

This is one of my Transformers. It is a motorcycle called Dirt Rocket. I don’t know where the first part of the name came from but the motorcycle is a style that can be termed “crotch rocket” or a “bullet in the head bike” or a “donor-cycle”. But I am pretty sure the folks at Hasbro were not about to call him that.

I hadn’t taken many photos of Transformer’s lately and I wanted to test out the macro lens on the new EC1. I am getting used to the controls of the new camera but I am not totally pleased with them. They are rather cumbersome and not as well laid out as the C4. With the C4 the still and video buttons were separated by the zoom button, all was easy to manipulate with simply your thumb. This camera is slightly larger, the still and video buttons are right next to each other, there is a separate menu button and the zoom is now below the photo buttons. I am still getting used to it but I do like how crisp the macro is and how close I could get to the top. It is only about as large as my thumb.

Frustrations abound as I am attempting to reformat the desktop computer. It is not going well at all. Luckily I backed everything up on my external drive on a daily basis. I am hoping that once I wipe the drive clean and start over it will run smoothly for Allison. I am also looking into upgrading it to better RAM. But I have run the recovery program about 5 times now and I cannot get the computer to boot back up without locking. Very frustrating.

I stopped messing with the computer for the night, let it rest. I did write a decent review of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. I will have to introduce Allison to T2 soon so we can both be up to speed on the show.Mobile post sent by BenSpark using Utterz.  Replies.  mp3
