My son started his own blog.

After all, he is a first grader now. He can spell, he can type, and he has his own ideas.

I re-dubbed Habboi's playthroughof my map sp_justice from almost ten years ago. I was experimenting with a new video editor.

It was my first Half-Life 2 map. I started making this map even before I played Half-Life 2.

We are fortunate enough to live half an hour from the final resting place for the shuttle.

Some close-up of the damaged tiles underneath the shuttle (after the final mission).

I recorded the unboxing of my new GTX 680 this morning.

A very generous friend gave it to me. I have taken care of his daughter a few times.

Portal, the best way to educate children.

When you guys have kids, remember Portal.

The Portal 2 Puzzle Maker is so easy, even a four-year-old can use it.

Now he can design an entire puzzle all by himself.

My wife got upset at me because I was letting Scott play Counter-Strike: Source.

It was a LAN server, and the only player was him (no bots either).

I was surprised that he has such good aim. He was in cs_militia, and he was able to shoot all the bottles with a pistol, and most of the shots hit the target on the first try.

Scott reenacting the "Meet the Heavy" video for Team Fortress 2.

Unfortunately, he barely whispered when he did it, so it's very hard to hear what he's saying. I think it's because he knew that he does not know the lines precisely, so he mumbled. The first reenactment (not recorded on video) was much louder, but he got self-conscious once the camera started rolling.
