In the last few months I have really considered joining more groups and organizations in an attempt to be the slightest bit more active in my communities. Strangely enough I consider myself to be a member of the communities of Boone, Ames, Iowa State and FUMC. Today I sent in… Read More »Johnny Joiner
There are a metric ton of people out there that think that I have an easy job. They believe this because I have told them that I have an easy job and it is a well documented fact that I don’t lie. However, yesterday I was unpacking a SCSI 29160… Read More »SCSI 29160
Over the last few days I have intermittently worked on some photos for a big product endorsement I’m going to be doing in the very near future. I asked a few friends to pose for the picture, without giving them any information. I would have thought that our friendship would… Read More »Mendacious
I started my Saturday by stepping on the basketball court at Beyer Hall for the first time in over a year. To be more direct, it was the first time I have stepped on any basketball court in over a year. On the court with me was Andree, Russell and… Read More »Spring Game
I said that I would not post a full image of Jay until he returned to Friday Night Supper Club. Tonight he made his return. To celebrate I post this old timey picture of a much younger and carefree Jay. Jay, Jesse and I had made plans to attend Cat… Read More »Smell the Mendacity
The Baiers and I took Nader out for supper tonight. He leaves for London to be reunited with his family on Saturday. He will be there for six weeks. That is excellent news for him, but that leaves me without a movie buddy. So I might put out a Help… Read More »Looking for a Scab
Scottie D. and his wife Melissa had their first child today. The child was a masculine child and they have named him Austin. I don’t have any pictures of the child to post at this time, but perhaps I will some time in the future.

I can’t reveal any of those images yet, but I can show a couple pictures of Shannon taking pictures of her soap. Some soap pictures should be posted… Read More »LWL Photo Shoot
VEISHEA was cold. A little bit miserable. However, there were some highlights. It took me awhile to see them because I was pretty upset that the good fried cheese curd stand was not there, but I eventually got over it. Who am I kidding? I’m still fuming about it. I… Read More »VEISHEA
I went in to see Monica to get my quarterly shearing. Do you see a difference? I feel much better now.
I went to a fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity at the Community Building with Teresa and Logan. It was a soup supper. The soup was served in a bowl made by a Boone County potter. You got to pick out your own bowl and you got to keep it. I… Read More »Habitat for Humanity Fundraiser
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
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?

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.

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.
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!”

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
