I started writing a novel this week.

It's a historical fiction based on a family friend set in WWII China.

One of the hidden gems in 2013 was "Snowpiercer". It shares many similarities with the world of Half-Life 2.

The story sets in the dystopian future, when mankind became nearly extinct after a global catastrophe. A megalomaniac holds a tight grip on the fate of humanity, and a decrepit leader (Eli Vance) inspires a resistance to overthrow the oppressor.

It's a brutal film that is saturated with graphic violence, but at the same time very stylistic. Any sci-fi fan would appreciate it.

Scott and I had an interesting conversation last night.
"I am so glad that I met Mom. Had I not met her, you wouldn't be here," I told Scott.
"If you married someone else and had children, would you love them as much as you love me?" questioned Scott.
I paused, considering all possible responses and how each one might be interpreted by him.
"I think so, because they are my kids after all," I answered finally, deciding on the most truthful reply.
"I think you are right," agreed Scott.

Scott and I took apart a defunct LCD and explored the miniature world within. We learned about capacitors together.

I've been staying up all night learning the history of Scotland. I am fascinated by the prospect that a new nation may be born tomorrow.

I am pro-independence. America did it, and so did Australia. It's about time for the proud and brave Scots to be free.

I even spent an hour talking to my son, Scott, about the independence movement and the history of Scotland.

I started my own Minecraft forum today.

Everyone is welcome to join, but the focus is on parents who play Minecraft with their kids.

You can consider this as the sequel to GamingParents.org
