During the 4+ hour live broadcast Dave show us the pile of unopened mail he has. Apparently he simpy has had no time/energy to do any mailbag episodes lately. Apparently he has intention to do those sometime, but I can't remmber any timeline given.

I suspect Dave is busy with his neuroelectronics project. Just give it time.
Whoa! How the hell did Dave know that Bob is my uncle? Amazing!

No dumpster diving either.
For me the most interesting videos were the dumpster diving and the repair sessions.

Nothing interesting enough in the dumpster lately.

Yes, I have a ton of mailbag, and it will take several days of shooting (and several videos) to get through it all.

Today was Daddy Day Care.
Tomorrow, I might get a few hours.
Sunday maybe.
Monday Daddy Day Care again.
Tuesday is Teardown day.
And I wonder why I never get it done   :-//

Good thing that Dave, you will get to see Sagan grow up, and teach him personally to follow in your footsteps.

What would you do if you had your old job for example?

Kudos for daddy care. Did that for three kids a day per week.
Enjoy!

A bit of patience and soon Sagan will teach daddy how to do accurate teardowns  ;D

The blog would still go on, but I'd maybe eek out one episode a week at best, maybe once a fortnight.
I think I was maybe getting out one video every 5 days or so on average when working, but that was without Sagan.
And it would be hard to justify keeping the new lab.

No, no. I was referring to Sagan, not to the blog. If both of you had to work, you would hire a nanny or something?

He'd have to go to child care if we both worked full time.
At the moment we both work, but not full time, and juggle days off.

I really look forward in the coming years to see Sagan doing tear downs :)

Please post pics of things he pulls apart, it is inevitable that this will happen. I think it is a common theme with kids dismantling toys if they are curious how they work. I think we all probably did that as kids :) much to our parents disappointment. I think Dave will be proud to see the first toy dismantled by Sagan. I think we all will.  :-+
