Friday With My Kids

I took my kids to Universal Studios this afternoon.  It was so crowded we really didn’t do much at all but it was simply fun to spend time with them.  Then on the way home, I had to fulfill a promise and buy an X-Box 360 and Kinect.  I’m sitting here watching my son play Halo Reach and it’s kind of cool.  I used to be a gamer but it has been several  years since I was into that.  My daughter is here too with her boyfriend Julian and we are all having a nice evening.  We were talking about my  blog on the way home (my kids thought the "reasons I’m a moron" post was particularly funny) and  they asked me what VTwinWriter meant and I suppose I could briefly explain how I came up with that name.  I ride a motorcycle.  It’s a 2001 Suzuki Intruder 1500 cruiser and it has been a great bike.  I bought it in the summer of 2001 and it has been good to me all these years.  Like most motorcycles it has a V-Twin engine.  Two cylinders in a V shape.  And since I like to ride, I’ve used the moniker of “VTwinRider” before for certain online signups etc.  So when I decided to start a blog, I was trying to think of a name and when “VTwinWriter” popped in my head, I thought it was the perfect blog name.  I like to ride motorcycles and I like to write.  I hope that helps explain the name.  I hope everyone had a great Christmas and the New Year is kind to all. 

Peace
