Driving No Mas
For the first time in fourteen years, I do NOT have to drive anywhere out of town for Thanksgiving. Hallelujah! It wasn’t so bad driving back and forth from school, as I was doing the driving while most everyone else was working. The last few years, however….well, it always seemed as if the entire East…

Style Rant
You know, some times I really get sick of how different browsers treat CSS. There are a couple of minor style sheet problems with the site: one that is see in Firefox, and one that is seen in IE. And it’s not as if it’s super easy to decipher what the problem is right away…thus…

Butt-Whoopin’
Last Friday night, I was forced to see what is quite possibly the worse movie of the year. This past Friday night, we saw what is quite possibly the best movie of the year. And then on Saturday, we had a marathon Christmas shopping session where we bought almost all of the gifts that we…

Firestarter
I decided to finally test out our fireplace yesterday, and it was a major success. That is, after a couple hours of burning newspaper and paper bags. Turns out it’s a little tough to burn wood that’s been sitting out in the rain. But once it got going, it was an awesome experience. Sitting by…

Hug a Vet
Thank God there are people brave enough in this world to defend the freedom that all of us in the good ol’ USA enjoy every day. My grandfather was a vet, my dad is a vet, Monica’s dad is a vet, and we have friends that are future vets…heck, Monica’s a vet too. Here’s to…

One Ring to Rule Me
Pretty much immediately after I got married, my wedding ring morphed from beautiful yellow and brushed white gold into a dented piece of gold colored metal. I guess I’m just really tough on rings. I’m not sure how it happened, whether I subconsciously tap it constantly or what, but I suspect the majority of the…

Another One for the Good Guys
I stayed up way too late last night watching the returns come in, and went to bed a happy man. Turns out I agree with the majority of America. It was a good day all around, for every branch of government, and all without recounts and lawsuits…so far. I have to give to Kerry though…

You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown
Boy, do I hope the American people get it right tonight. And boy, do I hope we know the results tonight. I truly believe that this country will take a giant step backward if John Kerry is elected President. I guess there’s no secret whom I voted for, eh?

Candyland
So we got a fair amount of trick or treaters last night, mostly made up of kids under the age of ten. We almost went through two five pound bags of candy from Sam’s Club, and now I’m sitting here eating the leftovers. What was this holiday all about again?

Where You Bean
Yeah, I know. I haven’t posted in awhile. What can I say? Things have been a bit…interesting…to say the least lately. I’ve spent most of my time the last few weeks working on our house. I’ve painted and painted and painted and finally, I decided to paint some more. I’ve also planted some grass seed…
