Well if you haven’t heard I’m a daddy. My wife and I were blessed to have a beautiful baby girl, Sophia. Being first time parents, we tried to prepare ourselves for everything. Perhaps since we prepared so well, the full-term birth went quite smoothly. Although from my point of view it was easier, my wife handled it deftly and did an awesome job.

Whatever holiday you celebrate, hope you have a happy one, with good health, lots of cheer and laughter shared with all your friends and family, from Old Man Musings.

Hoping that you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving and that your not already standing in line for holiday shopping deals. If so, you better at least have a turkey sandwich with cranberries in your pocket.

Joes for Tots is back! It’s the yearly contest that helps kids out by encouraging donations to Toys for Tots. If you’re out shopping for gifts this year please keep in mind that there are plenty of kids out there that could use your help though the Toys for Tots program. In order to participate in the contest all that is required is a picture of you donating at a Toys For Tots drop off box or a copy of a receipt from an online cash donation to Toys For Tots. More info can be found on our friend’s site: PoeGhostal.com.

Thanks Paul!

It’s Old Man Musings’ fourth birthday today! It’s been four amazing years since the first post! Thank you all for making this site so popular and thanks for coming back for more fun and games, here on OMM. On this birthday I’d like to show you something special.

Please put your hands together for our latest venture – they’re cute, cuddly creatures but beware they’re… Little Deadlies. The website is just starting up and soon will be offering fun little, handmade, plush creatures for everyone to enjoy.

More news on Little Deadlies coming soon via OMM’s webcomics, so stayed tuned. Since Little Deadlies is also on Twitter and has an RSS feed, I suggest that you add them!

Happy Birthday OMM!

The wife and I will be having a baby! It’s our first! The little one is expected to arrive and greet us sometime in December. We’ll find out if it’s a boy or girl in a few weeks. We’re looking forward to part 1 and the expensive machine that goes bing!

My new, little comic character named Norvil, is the the perfect robot to share with the family. He’s free of fragrance, cholesterol, gluten, shellfish, peanuts, woodchucks, MSG and worries. He’s packed full of salty fun and ready to pop at a moments notice. Now with fewer unpopped kernels!
