So if anyone watched the Dancing With Stars elimination you’ll know that my pick of Billy Ray Cyrus being eliminated was totally wrong. The only explnation I have is that it’s a dang popularity contest.  Paulina P (I can’t pronounce her last name, much less spell it) was voted off.  Of all the people on [...]

I ran across this article today and I thought “maybe Texas does have it right”.  I’ve heard from a good friend that his neighborhood is now become gangland or close to it (multiple gunshots being fired while he was away from the house and other stuff that went on).  I also heard reports that there [...]

I had this post about technology and how we can’t seem to get away from it, but I thought it was a bit preachy so I erased it.
Spring is definetly here. I shut the fireplace off the other day and I have a blister on my hand from raking leaves. I also built [...]

I’m going to try and post some sort of photos on Sundays now that the weather has changed and I’m kind of enjoying taking pictures again!

So I went and saw Shooter yesterday.  I think I mentioned in yesterday’s post that this was based on a novel that I had read awhile back.  The novel was called Point of Impact and it was written by Stephen Hunter.  Good book if you are looking for something to read (it actually ends up [...]

I’ve been debating between seeing Shooter and 300.  I’m inclined to go and see Shooter since I read the book a long time ago and I always thought it would make a good movie.  300 I really want to see, but I’m kind of soured on it.  Yesterday I was reading a Crossfit.com that the [...]

I thought I might post something about dancing, but I figure most of you are probably tired of me talking about it (on that end I might get my lovely wife to post something about our dancing up…it will probably be a lot different than my thoughts!).
This last weekend we had watched our NetFlix movies [...]

So now that the wife and I are dancers, or wannabes, we decided that we’d watch Dancing with the Stars which premiered tonight. They were dancing the Foxtrot and the Cha Cha tonight. We’ve done the Foxtrot but have not done the Cha Cha yet (we were told that was tomorrow). And it’s [...]

We had our private lesson on Monday evening and everything was going well. The Rhumba was the best and we felt really comfortable. Granted we are still in the beginning stage and haven’t learned more intricate steps, but we really felt good. I could lead my wife into a spin and she’d come back [...]

I don’t know if I mentioned it in another post, but we got new carpet installed today. It looks AWESOME. It’s a bit longer than the previous carpet, and it’s nice and squishy! I’m just waiting for one of the cats to lay the claws into it…the wife is going to go [...]
