”Before the “Idol” live-blog begins I’d like to take a moment and acknowledge how depressing it is that I am older than all but one “Idol” contestant this year. (Never thought I’d say it but thank God for Gokey. ) It felt weird when I surpassed “The Real World” casts it definitely flipped me out when I realized that I’m old enough to be Taylor Swift’s dad (if I was a twelve year old stud who practiced unsafe sex). And now the only reality show where the contestants are in my age range features ballroom dancing and washed up has-beens. Hell even Kim from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” could have gone to my prom.

Shields bounced back with a three-up three-down of his own. The perfect game is gone as Beckett walked Gabe Gross and Jason Bartlett in the 3rd but the no-hitter is still alive. Can you jinx a no-no by writing about it or do you have to say it out loud? h apparently blogging about it is enough as Aki just laced a single to left. Carl Crawford followed with a sacrifice fly to center scoring Gross and we are now tied at 1. The 2009 season is underway and Boston’s Josh Beckett looks to be in mid-season form. He set the Rays down in order in the top of the first striking out Akinori Iwamura and Evan Longoria. The Red Sox got the scoring started in the bottom half when Dustin Pedroia went down and got a low inside pitch from James Shields and took it over the Green Monster.

Research from BSM Media indicated that mothers did the bulk of household shopping and largely controlled $1. 7 million in consumer spending. But the last couple of years has seen a steady boost in blogging about the wonders and woes of child-rearing from the male perspective. “Dad is the new mom” announceda recent South-by-Southwest Interactive panelist. That means popular daddy bloggers such as Lin are bombarded weekly with requests to use their blogs as virtual billboards or to try out everything from baby strollers to family-friendly cars and then blog about it. As this practice becomes increasingly common some worry whether mom and dad bloggers are at risk of becoming corporate shills. In other words will the grabbing go too far?Credibility issuesMarshall Kirkpatrick lead writer and vice president for the technology blog ReadWriteWeb.
