Whenever I see him and ask him what he’s doing in school he says “oh, nothing.” It usually takes a frustrating series of questions to get him to open up even a little bit.

But, now on his blog he says he’s working on a science experiment with water and ice. Ahh, something to talk about. And so it expands.

Oh, Patrick, you should see what happens when Oxygen freezes. It’s fun to freeze a balloon with liquid nitrogen.

What’s very strange is just how many of you are reading my son’s blog and my wife’s blog. Lots of people come up to me and say “hey, my wife threw my cell phone too.”
