Enjoy. Please read, print, and keep […]

Yes, I’ll admit it, the materialistic aspect of my personality likes it when the birthday comes around. Gifts are swell. At the end of the day it is nice to know you are thought of.
Mary Jo and Jeff have bought me some very nice things for my upcoming birthday on the 24th. I received

Sunbrook Academy

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

Ok, I’ve officially been through the ringer the last few weeks with regards to my health. Despite this, it is my great joy to announce that I have survived watching after school kids at a local daycare for 1 month. I whimped out at Discovery Point several years ago when I got sick. […]

Thoughts, Ideas, Unsolicited Advice

Jessie and I were pondering why some people seemingly aren’t interesting in entering into a discussion type conversation. Maybe I don’t engage with others sometimes in discussion/debate because I am convinced at one point that I couldn’t convince them of my opinion. Yet, is the point always to convince others of my […]

Thoughts of the Day

Sunday, October 9th, 2005

I was thinking of a method to capture random thoughts I have throughout the day. These would be thoughts I wanted to share with everyone and get some feedback. So I introduce the thoughts of the day posts! I will make some retro posts based on old notes I have made on paper and dated. […]

New Wireless Provider

Sunday, October 9th, 2005

Now that we have been fully switched from our previous wireless provider I need to review what kind of options we have on our cellphones.
Here were the benefits of the old plan.

National coverage
Calls to any who used the same provider didn’t count towards minutes usage
Weeknight (7:00am-6:00pm) and weekend (Friday 7:00pm until Monday 6:00am) usage didn’t […]

I tried a free subscription to Cook’s Illustrated web site. I gave them a fake e-mail address through dodgeit.com. They also required credit card information so they could charge you after 14 days. I also gave them fake credit card information (Probably […]

Spider Huntin’: A Family Affair

Sunday, September 18th, 2005

Tonight Jeff, Mom, Joe and I went searching for spiders. We joked and said (in a southern drawl) “We’s goin’ spider huntin.’” It was pretty fun. Despite the appearance of madness, Joe and I actually did have a purpose for “the hunt.” In a few weeks we will need some plant or animal tissue for […]

Memorabilia from the 1980’s

Sunday, September 18th, 2005

A few months ago my aunt Wendy gave me a whole bunch of stuff my dad had asked her to store for him. Evidently, some of my childhood belongings have been in her old barn in Aiken, SC since 1993 (When my dad moved there from Altamonte Springs, FL). Surprisingly, everything was in […]
