Sometimes, as a parent, I just don't know what to do. Today, the day when important clients drove hundreds of miles into the office for the big meeting, I got a call from the wife. Our son, after getting into a scuffle with another kid over, apparently, a pencil, told the teacher, "Go #!@% yourself."   Read More →

I'm not sure whether to file this under hypocrisy or stupidity or what. I signed up with an advertising affiliate network to place some banner ads on the site.

I guess it's only fair I give a little update as to what's been going on at Itzoe.net. First, you might have noticed we technically have two sites right now.

Wouldn't you know it? You place paths, fences, everything needed to keep your guests safe, and still they insist on wandering where they don't belong. Your IQ is probably in the double digits if you find yourself standing on ROLLER COASTER TRACKS in the middle of an AMUSEMENT PARK. Duh. Maybe a roller coaster's going to come screaming through here any second.   Read More →
