so recently my three year old son, roman xavier (yes that is his first name – so what if there are two of them, that is just how his mom and i roll), broke my brand new ipad 2. and by brand new i mean i have had it for three weeks now. and by break i mean he was watching voltron on netflix with the ipad on his lap, he moved, it fell, the screen cracked.

geekery par excellence
as those who know me may attest, i am a a geek of stereotypical proportions. that is to say that i have a certain fondness, appreciation and affinity for all things deemed “geek”-worthy. from to tolkien to asimov; from spock to chewie; from technology to hacking – i have embraced this as my life aesthetic.
this persona, however, has certain expectations – as my five year old daughter once quipped – “dad, i didn’t know you are a computer guy”. it comes with the territory. to put it another way, my family cares little that i hold an m.a., am a pastor, and have not held a technical job for fifteen years – they still call when they break their computers.
