What to do this summer? Robot Camp!

Recently, I received an email from my Aunt Joyce. "Perhaps this would interest your robotics site visitors," she wrote. What she sent opened my mind to a whole new world I wish had existed when I was a kid. Back then, my grandma sent me to Bible school over one summer, and the only thing I can remember was how a teacher publicly ridiculed me for not knowing how to spell a word. I still have trouble spelling. Looking back, I know I would've had a lot more fun at robotics summer camp! If you're a kid into science or a parent with one, check out these summer camp links (hurry because the registration deadlines are approaching soon and they're filling up fast):

I finally completed the 2nd issue of WebComic Fury Digital Magazine! What a challenge and a lot of hard work it was. I was mildly hoping that my being the editor and art director would entail more delegation of duties, but in spite of having so many contributors, I burned the midnight oil several times to get this issue completed. It features an exclusive interview with Nate Piekos, mastermind of BlamBot.com and creator of Atland , also an interview with webcomic creators J & J Maillet, authors of The Other Grey Meat , a review of Kristy Kuechenmeister's Wake the Sleepers , and a logo-making tutorial from the author of Obscurat .
