Posted by Jarrett on January 6th, 2010

It’s been more than a year since I posted the original JoCo medley. I was a little surprised by the response I got the first time around. The people really love their Coulton.
Here are the very special tracks that made the cut this time around:

Ethan’s Art Project

Posted by Jarrett on December 30th, 2008

Ethan decided he wanted to make some beautiful paintings to send to his grandparents as Christmas gifts. We thought it would be fun to share a video of the artist at work. I imagine the video of Ethan creating his masterpiece will eventually help us deflect scrutiny from 60 minutes.

So, this guy is playing the guitar part with a custom drum controller. I am awestruck by the ingenuity, skill and endurance.
Stay tuned for “Hamster Piano”.

My dad used to tell my brother and me that once the infrared wireless television remote control became affordable for the masses, there wasn’t any good reason to have kids around. Actually, Dad probably never really said that. But I bet he thought it.
In the twenty-first century global economy, today’s toddler has to be versatile. [...]
