    I’ve made no bones about the fact that I’m a big Marvel fan. From growing up with Marvel Comics in the 80’s, to enjoying the X-Men Animated series in the 90’s, to the MCU, you can always “Make Mine Marvel.” So it’s no surprise that one of my earliest reviews at GeekDad was my review of the then-new Marvel: Crisis Protocol miniatures skirmish game from Atomic Mass Games. Fellow contributor Robin Brooks also chronicled his first game with MCP here on GeekDad in 2022.

    I (not so) fondly remember summer school typing classes, where I had to labor to learn touch typing on an old-fashioned typewriter. No word processor for me; if I made a mistake, it would be Liquid Paper brushed on and waiting for it to dry before I could continue my keystrokes. Despite my irritation at being stuck in a classroom in July as a teenager, this skill I was learning would later prove invaluable, especially as I turned to screenwriting.

    We just passed Memorial Day, which means that grilling season has truly begun. But grills aren’t the only great way to do some outdoor cooking! In recent years, the outdoor griddle has become a fun addition to the backyard appliances. Weber recently added a 28″ model to their Slate line of griddles. You can choose between two different models, one fueled by propane, and the other by natural gas. Weber sent me a propane model, as well as a few accessories, to try out for myself.
