Last Few Days
Who is up for a random collection of pictures that come without descriptions? Perhaps including a picture of the worst John Wayne statue I have ever seen and pictures of some really sweaty dudes.

This is taken from Paul Shirley’s ESPN Diary. It is a retelling of one of the greatest injustices in the history of College Basketball. Plus he only gives a cursory look to my least favorite college basketball memory (I watched that game in F-ing Hunky Dory’s!) and the peripheral reason… Read More »Why I Love College Basketball
I went on a brief sojourn to Minnesota this past weekend. I had some pretty ambitious plans for a photo montage, but that fell through. So I put this little thing together to make me feel better about me. The Drink “This beer tastes like dog rectum. Jay let me… Read More »Something Out of Nothing
I have had difficulty in getting back in my mode to finish up this mostly uninteresting tale. It has been over a week since most of this stuff has transpired. My memory of the events may be more than a little bit foggy. I’ll do my best recollect these events… Read More »Reflections on the Last Few Days (Part III)
All false male bravura aside, the ride home from work today SUCKED!!! I can’t emphasize this point nearly enough. You could underline that word about 4 more times and the point still wouldn’t quite be made. I think visibility at times was a negative number. My sister asked me how… Read More »Reflection on the Last Few Days (Part II)
I was saddened on Wednesday by the passing of the founder of Hilton Magic. I have one quick story about Barry Stevens I wish to share. Back when Barry Stevens used to play for the Cyclones my mom worked the training table. After wins they would prepare a victory dinner.… Read More »Random Notes, Nothing on a Scandal
Just thought I would jot down a few quick thoughts. First of all, I would like to share the fruits of my labors from Craft Night!! Okay . . . so one could make the case that painting a frame and matting a picture hardly constitutes a “craft”. I’m not… Read More »Spirit Pumps
I got lots of information to get out there, so I’m going to dispense with the niceties and just jump in and get this “blog” on!!! Well the response to my anti-Dasher Management rant and artwork has been universally negative. Just some of my favorite e-mail responses: “What you don’t… Read More »Rectification
So I thought quite some time about beginning a new segment on this blog. I was going to do some endorsements. You know, endorsing products, ideas, people. I was all set to endorse my first product: Heartland Creamery Milk. In fact, I even went so far as to have the… Read More »Failed Beginning
A note to let you know that I haven’t forgotten about the Artist’s Notebook. In fact I have so many things to write about that I don’t know where to begin. There was the trip to Minnesota to see the Foo Fighters, there was Rebecca’s senior picture shoot, and Halloween… Read More »Other Projects
By popular request, a page of snapshots from the UNI game has been added to the website. I made the pictures even bigger because I think some times it is difficult to know what is going on in the picture. Snapshots from the UNI Game
Much has transpired since the last time that I took keyboard in hand and banged down a few thoughts for the World Wide Web. I won’t discuss many of those matters at this time. I’m only going to bang out some thoughts about the UNI-ISU football game on last Saturday.… Read More »A Cyclone Victory
I failed in my quest to get “Building 429” properly framed for display last night. I also learned that my attempts to get “Blue Steel” placed prominently in Salon 908 will not result in anything tangible. However, “Earth’s Laughter Series – #04” might get a spot on their walls. Jesse… Read More »Blue Steel Plans Halted

Pufferbilly Days has now passed. At some point in the future I will go up to the Chamber of Commerce and retrieve my pictures, trophies, and ribbons. That is correct, instead of giving our ribbons for Win, Place, and Show; they give out trophies. I’m not complaining. This will be… Read More »Weekend Reflections
I had the pleasure of attending the opening game of Iowa State’s football season on Thursday night. Going to Iowa State home games is a family tradition. I have had season tickets since 1983. That means I have seen lots and lots of Iowa State history. I have a friend… Read More »Iowa State versus Toledo
Today at 4 PM was the deadline to get pictures turned into the Chamber of Commerce for the Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest. Last night I set aside some time to mount and mat my images, but my pictures had yet to arrive from Adorama. Not their fault. It was entirely… Read More »Pufferbilly Days Photo Contest Deadline
