T Night

I went over to Suzie and Eric’s for T Night. I was pretty sure that the night would conclude with Suzie conceding that she was too far behind in the race for Monica’s Friend of the Year 2008 that she should just do the gracious thing and bow out of… Read More »T Night

CASA Fundraiser

My good friends the Baiers are active with a group known as CASA. They are having a fundraiser this week. Take a look at their poster. IMAGE DELETED What is CASA? The shorthand version is that they help children with crappy parents. The long version goes something like this: In… Read More »CASA Fundraiser

Son of Rambow

This is the new must see movie of the year for me. It appeals to everything I love about movies. VIDEO DELETED I might try to re-assemble the old Rambo platoon for a viewing. I might need Baier to guilt trip Russell to get him there though.

Class of 1993

I’ve had some strange encounters with members of the Class of 1993. My home loan officer is from that legendary class. I ran into a member from the class at a nursing home. Then I met a member of the class during Fellowship at church. Interesting.

New Toy

I got a new toy for the camera in the mail yesterday. I did some experimenting with it. I know some cynics out there are thinking: “Wow you bought a toy that takes blurry pictures, congratulations.” I would only respond with a smile and say, “Yes I did!”

Foggy

It was a bit foggy on the way to work. Here are some pictures from my commute. Looking down South Benton The alley across the street Leaving town on Mamie This semi was so slow Dickcissel Park Road next to Dickcissel Park Entrance ramp US 30 It is probably rather… Read More »Foggy

Acceptance

I got home from a Jaycees meeting tonight. We were able to hammer out the details of the band contract. This was actually way more difficult than I figured it would be. It included some quite lively debate about whether or not we should follow the law or not. I… Read More »Acceptance

Chicago 10

Last night I went to the Varsity with Nader to see Chicago 10. This is a fascinating documentary about the trial of the Chicago 7, 8 or 10 depending on what name you want to use. The film mixes animation with archival footage. I’m not fan of hippies, yippies, Democrats,… Read More »Chicago 10

Coppermine

I’ve started the process of creating new photo galleries. I’ve decided to finally update my photo galleries and have stumbled across a new way of doing the galleries. I just need to get Frank to install MySQL and PHP on his server. He doesn’t like installing new things, so between… Read More »Coppermine

Trip to Jester Park

I made a trip through Jester Park yesterday to see if the road to the bison was open yet. It was not open, but I did take a few pictures of some geese hanging out there.

Mystery

This has been bothering me for awhile. There are these giant cutouts near the intersection of Highways 17 and 141. Does anybody know why these things exist and what it is that they are trying to promote? Somebody please tell me about these things.

This Morning

I was kind of surprised when I woke up this morning and looked outside to see everything covered in a thick blanket of snow. It was an unpleasant surprise to find that nobody on the highway wanted to drive over 40 while I was on my way to work. I… Read More »This Morning

A New Gig

Shannon started her new gig with United Way of Story County. Her new job is worthy of a press release and she needed a head shot for this press release and their website. I got the pleasure to take this picture and below are some of the results. The Winner,… Read More »A New Gig

Usher Observations

I’ve been an usher at church the last two weeks. I usher again this coming Sunday. At first I was a little bit leery about being an usher. The main problem is that our traditional worship service begins at 8:55. That means to begin fulfilling the many usher duties (handing… Read More »Usher Observations
