Small Airspace Request

Will the guy with F-15 please stop flying over our house under 500′ with your afterburners on? I’m trying to get some rest. Thx!

Russian Roul-Strep

Play it enough and you’re bound to lose.
Camryn has brought strep throat home five times now since school started and thankfully I’ve dodged it … up until now.
Maybe I’ll post some pictures soon.

Reed Pittman at The Red Light

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007 | Posted in Local Songwriters

This Friday, May 25th, Reed Pittman & The Rest will be playing at the Red Light Cafe. Hear his tunes on his MySpace page — sounds like good stuff to me. I’ll be going down after small group (9ish). Comment if you are interested in carpooling or meeting down there.
Inspired by contemporary rock from the likes [...]

Shady’s Last Days

Thursday, May 17th, 2007 | Posted in Family, General

If you could, please pray for my friend JB. His dog Shady is in her last moments/days. He has had her since she was a puppy and she is 18 years old — that’s a 126 in human years.
Over the past year we have discussed my experience with Abbey and Gracie. As we pondered, [...]

In The Fine Print

I purchased an iPod Shuffle for Regina yesterday.
And then I returned it.
It turns out that they (all new iPods) require USB2 and I only have USB1 on the laptop. It’s odd to think my hardware is so outdated that I can’t even get a low-end iPod to work with it — something makes me think [...]

Return of the Goatee

Thursday, May 10th, 2007 | Posted in Family, Football, General

The goatee is on its way back — slowly but surely.
I think I’m going to save its permanent removal until I pass the half-century mark. Like a secret weapon in the fight against the appearance of aging. Funny how it makes me look younger and heavier at the same time. We’ll see how the trade-off [...]

Theology For Dummies

Tuesday, May 1st, 2007 | Posted in Kingdom Bits

Over the past few years as I’ve grown more in my faith I’ve made it a goal to be able to articulate that faith. In 1 Peter 3, Peter tells us to be, “…prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do [...]
