So I was reading through some forum posts dealing with advertising (I know my wife will be shocked to find I was reading about something other than guns, kilts, and geek stuff), and I came upon this quote. It just about sums up all you need to know about advertising today: “Also, this is more [...]

“Yes, Red and Green”
Well, apparently I’ve been working too hard. According to Ann I sat bolt-upright in bed at around 3 a.m. this morning and said: “Yes, red and green.” “That’s great, red and green.” “That’s what I said, red and green.” Ann then asked if I was okay. “Yup, I’m fine.” Ann: “Then lay back down.” Me: [...]
Jobs I’ve worked
So a few weeks ago (I actually started writing this the week Steve preached this) Steve said during his message that the average American will work 14 jobs in their lifetime. Confident that I’ve nearly doubled that amount, I hereby start this posting of jobs I have worked. If any of you remember me working [...]
A Challenge Accepted
We joked Saturday about writing a Haiku to the Baptist Hymnal. The joke being that we still use Baptist Hymnals at Lake Pointe Church (where I work)… only we don’t actually sing from them.. They are used as shims and platforms to hold up… everything. Well, here’s what I came up with: No Baptist Hymnal? [...]
Say hello to the Reverend Kevin Dooley
Yeah, you read that right… I was ordained over my lunch break today. Don’t believe me? Read this: Congratulations! You are now a legally ordained minister for life, though you may relinquish your credentials at any time. YOU HAVE BECOME A MEMBER OF THE PRESTIGIOUS CLERGY. You have earned a title worthy of admiration and [...]
Frank turns to the Dark Lord
Well, my buddy Frank has gone and done it. He emailed the Prince of Darkness for a little advice. Check it out here.
loaded questions
So, when I got home this afternoon I decided to ask my wife a series of loaded questions. They went something like this: Me: Hey honey, how was your day? Ann: Fine I guess, I haven’t done much yet… just been resting and taking it easy. Me: Hey, umm… did you almost get run off [...]
The importance of getting enough sleep…
So today was weird… I’ve been workin’ like a dog for a few days between my actual job and trying to get our new apartment ready… I haven’t gotten much sleep, my eyes are irritated from all the paint and cleaning product fumes, etc… Anyway, back to today… I come in to work a little [...]
201! 38 to go!
So a few of you may remember the post about how many movies you have seen off of a certain list… Well, Swimfan was on TNT… so I’m down to only 38 movies to see!
Mmmm… Haggis!
So last night Ann and I attended a Burns supper, which is a supper celebrating the life and work of Scotland’s national poet, Robert Burns. There’s a variety of toasts given and lots of dancing (both traditional Scottish dances, and modern dancing), and lots of Burns’ poetry is read. Open It or Expand It » [...]
200… Looks like I’ve got 39 movies to watch!
SUPPOSEDLY if you’ve seen over 85 of these movies, you have no life. Mark the ones you’ve seen. There are 239 movies on this list. Copy this list mail, go to your own facebook account, paste this as a note. Then, put x’s next to the movies you’ve seen( you have to have seen the [...]
Theme Songs
I’m a firm believer that every great event in one’s life should include a theme song… Jim Carrey’s character in Cable Guy may have been crazy, but he had that part right. So I would like to announce the Official Theme Song for Baby Dooley (update tomorrow!)… For those of you who watch Scrubs, this [...]
straight dope
Okay, time for another shameless plug. This one goes out to all of us with Input as one of our Signature Themes: The Straight Dope is a column and a series of books written by Cecil Adams (which is clearly a pseudonym, possibly for Cecil’s “editor” Ed Zotti). His column is carried in many alternative [...]
