In the last day of their current session, the Supreme Court is expected to give their decision on District of Columbia vs. Heller today… their first ruling on the 2nd Amendment in over half a century. Directly from the Court’s decision: Under any of the standards of scrutiny the Court has applied to enumerated constitutional [...]

It’s Arrested Development
So, for those of you not in the know… Arrested Development was one of the funniest things to hit TV in a long time. So Fox (predictably) canceled it after 2 and a half seasons. But that’s okay, Jason Bateman and the crew are back! Scheduled for release next year is Arrested Development… the movie. [...]
Ozzfest Update
Alright all you closet Metal fans! (I know you wanna go Jason Cole) Tickets to Ozzfest 2008 go on sale next Saturday, May 31st. I don’t have a time because ticketmaster is lame, but the nice DJ lady said May 31st is the day. If you wanna go, get your own ticket… festivals usually don’t [...]
Birthdays and Haircuts
So I woke up this morning and had a little email alert waiting for me. This email told me two things: 1. What I wanted to do for my birthday and 2. The earliest possible date I would cut my hair. The earliest possible date of hair cutting will be August 10th. The reason for [...]
She walks!!!
Okay, so Lilybeth has been walking a few steps at a time and then crawling, but she hasn’t been walking any decent distance without support… until just now. She walked all the way across the living room on her own (she squated a couple times to give her legs a break I think). She got [...]
Let the Summer Blockbuster Season Begin!
And it does so in style! I am just arriving home from the midnight (well, we got into the 11:15 showing) premiere of Iron Man… one of the best reviewed movies of they year so far (it actually wrangled a 96% at rottentomatoes.com – which I thought was impossible for a superhero flick). It was [...]
HE’S HOME!
Good news everybody! My dad is currently sitting in his easy chair watching the Office. He’s doing good on his new oxygen equipment and seems much happier here.
Open Invitation
So this is a little late (I had the best of intentions of posting this weeks ago), but tomorrow night (Monday) at 7pm in the chapel at Lake Pointe the ceremony to license me to the ministry will be conducted. Dress is business casual and any of you guys who are local are invited to [...]
WOOT!
Remember last week faithful readers (all two of you) when I said that relief had finally come? Well, things just got better today. Ann just received a call from the Missions department here at church… and they have decided to hire her! She’ll start full time a week from tomorrow as the Missions Coordinator (or [...]
Relief
I’m not going into all the details, because this is the internets and anyone can read this, but today brought some much needed relief. So much so that I’m almost tearing up as I sit here in shock.
Love and Magic
So Saturday I performed my first wedding ceremony. I united my little sister and her now husband, Joe. At the couple’s request it was a short ceremony that I basically wrote from scratch. Sure it covers all the same ground as a typical American wedding, but it was in my own words. Open It or [...]
Things heard on the Cartoon Network late at night.
“…she wasn’t really my girlfriend, just some girl who lived next door to me and never closed her drapes.” You gotta love Futurama – which is coming back with new movies/episodes soon!
FOO FIGHTERS!
Thanks to an iTunes pre-sale, I now have 2nd row seats to the Foo Fighters show on 01/23/2008 (Christina, I’m gonna need to leave early that Wednesday…). Ann and I will be joined by Frank and Sara Taylor. For those of you who are quick on the uptake you may have noticed that the date [...]
I’m bona fide!
For those of you who don’t know… I am now officially “Licensed to the Gospel Ministry” by the Pastor and Elders of Lake Pointe Church. I began pursuing this both as an acknowledgment of God’s calling in my life and also to be able to minister to my friends and family in the way that [...]
Alice in F’n Chains
Well, I sent the original post from my phone and just haven’t gotten around to updating it… So here’s a proper concert review: I went to the show calling it an Alice in Chains concert, even though they were technically opening for Velvet Revolver. Given that over half the crowd left when AiC went off [...]
