I've been doing more writing than posting lately, but I still have a few recent blog posts.

Just a fun cartoon:
http://tysonadams.com/2012/05/04/i-j...to-share-this/

Read Matt Hilton's Cut and Run and reviewed it, definitely worth a read:

In a slight departure from normal service, my last two posts have been about the destructive capacity of a toddler in the arena of consumer electronics, plus the consequences of failing to avoid a tantrum inspired headbutt.

It's in the sig.

Very funny, Hamster - that brings back some dreadful memories.

I have two as well (blogposts, I mean) - same sort of thing, but instead of toddler, read Switzerland

The Avengers is one of the those movies that was doomed to fail. There was too much riding on it, too many cogs in the machine. There was no way The Avengers could of been good. Unless you get Joss Whedon to direct. Read my review here: AVENGERS ENSEMBLE!
