While your toddler might like this show just for the colorful and silly actions its really not designed for a young toddler – this show is really designed where a 4/5/6 year old would really start getting the humor and the dialog. As an adult male – I have no problem stating that its one of the few cartoons these days that makes me crack a smile when its playing in the background.

Father’s day is almost drawn to a close but I’m sure there are many now looking for a gift – still – and you know guys love technology… While you know I’m totally an apple fan boy… I’ve heard great things about the Samsung Windows Phone and I thought I’d give it a test drive (which was provided by the Microsoft team). The phone was rock solid… I was really impressed with the deep integration of outlook, xbox live, and instant integration of facebook.

Why Windows Phone?
