Deciding on Whether to Bank Your Newborn's Cord Blood Stem Cells

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Dad Central for the Cord Blood Registry. I received promotional item to thank me for my participation.

Offer has been extended to March 24, 2014!

Hey there.  Soon to be mom or dad?  If so, congrats on your addition to the family!  Having a baby is an awesome and exciting time, but it's also one that makes us anxious and worrysome.  Will I be a good parent?  What do I do if the baby gets sick?  Should I start saving money for college?  What if something goes wrong?  Is the house really baby proof?  Do I have enough health coverage?  It's scary, I know.  I've been there.  We are a family of 6 so I know the anxieties that come with being a dad.  The wife and I tried to be as best prepared to welcome our baby into our lives.  We read the books, we read websites, we questioned our doctors... but the one thing that we were not aware of is the option to save our baby's cord blood.  Now, I know it can be touchy subject.  Some are for stem cell research, others are not.  I'm not here to push you in either direction.  I'm here to provide you information... information that I wasn't aware of during the time of our little ones' births and it's information that you should consider before making a decision on whether or not you would like to bank your baby's cord blood.

Chucky Terrorizes at a Bus Stop

Hey there.  When I was a kid, I was terrified of Chucky.  Maybe because it was one of the first times I saw a small doll actually move on it's own on the big screen killing people.  Keep in mind that Chucky first appeared in film back in 1988.  Fast forward 25 years later and Chucky is still making films.  His latest being Curse of Chucky, released sometime in 2013.  You know, the Child's Play franchise when from scary, to humor, to eye rolling dumb, but with Curse of Chucky, it looks like it's coming full circle and going for that "scary' vibe again.  How do I figure?  Just check out this freakin' awesome video of Chucky doing his thing to unsuspecting people at a bus stop!
