Wordsplosion!

I stumbled upon a pretty neat site the other day. It’s called Wordsplosion. According to their site, “Wordsplosion brings you the best of the worst of the world of grammatical errors, punctuation gaffes, misspellings, typography etc. We call this family of textual catastrophes “wordsplosions”. They have some pretty funny signs and other total misuse of […]

One Long Saturday Afternoon of Football

Ouch! Today was one long afternoon of youth football. Sean had another football game this afternoon. Luckily, the weather held out and it was only about 90 degrees. Unfortunately, the other team showed up and we got slaughtered by a score of 42 – 0. It might have been worse as its possible I lost […]

Sean’s Team Loses Opener

Sean’s football team started their season this weekend. Unfortunately, they didn’t start it out on the right foot. They lost a close game by a score of 14 – 12, losing by missing their two extra points, while the other team made both of them. The game was actually pretty sloppy and ugly, which is […]

Dear Mr Obama

As my loyal readers will know, I don’t usually bring politics into my blog. However, with the upcoming, very important, Presidential election, I came across a very moving video addressed to Democratic nominee Barack Obama. Personally, I wouldn’t touch Obama with a 100 ft (yes, even longer) pole and am strongly backing John McCain. I […]

Football Season is Here

Oh yeah! It’s that time of the year again. Football Season! Along with the cooling of temperatures here in Arizona and our annual fall/winter cruise approaching, this is an awesome time of the year! College football is already under way. The NFL starts tonight. And, Sean’s football season begins this weekend. I am actually holding […]

Grandmother’s 90th Birthday Trip

This weekend was a very special weekend. It was the 90th birthday of my Grandmother. Her official birthday was Saturday, but the festivities began on Thursday as friends and relatives rolled in from all over the county. I think folks came from 12 different states to attend the birthday parties. Most of the folks, like […]

Tooth Fairy Bonanza

It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Sean. He has been in tooth fairy hell. Not because he has been having his teeth fall out, but because of the opposite. Sean has been a wee bit upset of late because Savannah has been losing a lot of her baby teeth. Sean doesn’t like the […]

Sean’s Birthday Festivities

Sean’s Birthday was last Thursday, but today we had his fun day. Most of the presents were opened last week, but today was his day on the town. As previously mentioned, the kids get a party with their friends every other year and then on the other year, we have a family day. It started […]

Road Warrior

Occasionally, I travel for work. Luckily, its not too often. However, over the next couple of months that’s going to get stretched a bit and I will be travel weary. No problem keeping my Gold (and potentially Platinum) status this year. It all starts around the end of this month with a trip to Tampa […]
