Let’s talk about Wonder Woman and Diana Prince for a minute. Pretty much every comics geek has asked the same question since the character’s inception: “How is it that no one realizes that she’s just wearing a pair of glasses to hide her identity?”If you think about it, the answer is really about misdirection and privacy. Wonder Woman consistently misdirects people about her true identity, and she never (or rarely) shares information that could be used to link her to her alter ego.

Last week, we looked at the mid-century and earlier “dark ride” style in Halloween decorating, so let’s move ahead in time a bit for the Gen X punk era by turning an inexpensive plastic skull into an ’80s-style punk rocker. I have lived through (and been part of) the height of the punk rock era of Gen X, but if you look around, the old-school punk rock style is something that has never really gone away.

I have been playing The Sims since a few of my gaming friends were talking about the release of Sims 3 and trusting their judgement, I picked up the game and was hooked ever since. The Sims 3 eventually became The Sims 4 and eventually I found myself wondering how long I had left with The Sims 4 until The Sims 5 dropped. A few years ago when Project Rene was announced, players assumed this was the inevitable The Sims 5. Apparently it’s not, and Project Rene will be an online multiplayer off-shoot.

This is my eleventh year with a child starting school, and things have changed a lot since that first year. I still take the morning off work to see them onto the bus, and we still have an early night the night before school starts. I still take the first-day pictures. But I no longer fuss and fret over who has the right school supplies. I no longer worry about the perfect morning picture, as long as I get one.

St. Patrick’s Day approaches, and one of the legends surrounding him is how he stood on top of an Irish hillside and banished those pesky snakes form Ireland. Poor snakes! From the original Bible stories to current day to the Centers of Disease Control lists of venomous snakes, these slithery critters always get a bad rap. For good reason sometimes. Snakes like vipers and cottonmouths possess sometimes-deadly venom.
