I’m really more of a geek but “Darla of Geek” didn’t sound so great. 👉Current task: Learning how to be a SelfAwareRobotMom & celebrating inclusion of the podcast into the iTunes platform!

He attempts to barter his magical spinning skills to gain the baby, but is thwarted because he can’t keep himself from boasting aloud …

Independence Day VS 4th of July. I now like “Independence Day” more than “July 4th.” Because July 4 is a date that can be commandeered by political parties to their own benefit. Independence Day is a celebration of breaking free as our own nation...not a nation of Republicans, Democrats (or even Whigs), but our people were united, that’s why it’s T…

America used to love a good comeback story. However, in the age of social media we see people being destroyed over misunderstood incidents. Individuals are slaughtered for ignorant words spoken years ago, even if the person who spoke them expresses regret and has apologized. Do we still have the capacity to give others (and ourselves) the space to …

A rainbow of colors in the bead and heat-affected zone (HAZ) doesn’t automatically make it a good weld, and it can indicate a bad weld. It all depends on the material, the industry, and the application. On this episode of Playing With …
