Ali stayed up late last night and sewed an adorable bag.
This girl is so talented, she gets it all from me.

…an oldie from 2007 but still a goodie. We hadn’t seen this one but we all loved it. The water effects we’re awesome, especially for the era.
Three thumbs up from the Shockleys! 👍👍👍

…watch it now!
Just what I needed tonight!

Could be worse!







The girls really took care of me while visiting The Avengers Vault at Disney’s California Adventure Park.
The Guardians of the Galaxy is my favorite storyline of the MCU, and I’ve always wanted to own the orb from the first movie. Thanks to my oldest daughter for making that happen. This thing is pretty cool and actually has a metal shell, along with lights, sounds and even a rumble motor inside. The stone can be removed and placed in other items that available from the movies. Each stone reacts differently when set into the other items to match the stone’s powers. They really made these things special and now of course I want them all.
While still in the shop, my wife and youngest daughter said they wanted to get me something else for my birthday. It was tough to decide in this magical world of marvelous toys, but one thing really caught my eye. I had no idea that the Time Stick from the Loki series as well as the Deadpool and Wolverine movie was even available. This thing is pretty cool, also a mixture of plastic and metal and this thing feels pretty legit. Lights and sounds along with special pruning effects when the stick strikes an object.
Thanks again to my girls for picking these up for me, and making my birthday extra special.

I just realized after all these years of watching my favorite holiday movie, “The Year Without a Santa Claus”, that it was all a dream… At the end of the movie Santa says, “I dreamed unhappy things”, and then he loads up the sleigh and heads off to deliver presents on Christmas Eve.
What the hell?




Galaxy Quest is one of my all time favorite movies. So happy to finally have this one in 4K with upgraded sound.
The day after receiving this bluray, I walked into my local Hallmark Store and I was surprised to find an ornament of the N.S.E.A. Protector, the ship from the movie.
It’s kismet I say… kismet!

You are free to judge me for how I vote, but I prefer you judge me on how I interact with you and the people around me.
We don’t all have to agree on everything to love one another.
For the record, I have fears, I have sadness, I feel love, I feel loss, I have cried, and I have bled… just like you.

Hearing Mr. Roboto being played from my daughter’s room brought back memories of when I was in highschool. I played this album so much from a boom box hoysted on my shoulder, I received my first ever nickname, “Kilroy”.
This kid is so much like me… and I love it!
Rock on girl!
