I just realized that Father’s Day is quickly approaching. This is a day that I’ve never felt pertains to me: this is a day for my own dad and always has been; it is not for me.

It was extremely cool and I had some fun but then considered it a bit of a novelty and put it up on the…… Continue reading Samsung Gear Virtual Reality (VR)
