  • Check out the celebration–the 10th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to China from Britain. Too bad I was only able to watch it on TV. Must have been madness out there. Happy birthday to my dad too.

  • Hot and Humid

    It hasn’t been that bad since I got here. I love those red eye flights where I sleep the whole way through. Sure makes the flights go faster. Too bad my light wouldn’t turn off, but the flight attendant was nice enough to put a plastic covering over the entire light panel. I should have…

  • …and I’m not even in China yet! I’m leaving for HK tonight. Guess what my last meal is…yep, Chinese food. I guess that’s what I get for eating with my family.  I really wanted Red Robin or Mexican food because I know I won’t be eating burgers or tacos anytime in the next 5 weeks.…

  • Congratulations to my kids who graduated this year. It’s been a long journey working with them.  I feel like a parent every year, sending their kids off.  I’m proud of every single one of them.

  • This was a birthday card that my brother gave Mackenzie for her 3rd birthday. Shame shame. We couldn’t let her older brother read it.

  • A four-part documentary about the making of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining: one, two, three, four. By Kubrick’s daughter, Vivian.

  • So much on my mind lately. It hurts to be burned by people and jerked around time and time again.  I don’t know what to say or do about things like this any more. My brother thinks that I’m just too nice.  Many thanks to God for friends who have actually been demonstrating their care…

  • Mackenzie: Can I go to China too? Me: You have to go with your mommy and daddy. Do you WANT to go to China? Mackenzie: No, I want to stay in the car. Ah, I miss working with kids.

  • I really hate going through my mail because I feel like I’m wasting a lot of time going through credit card offers and other unsolicited mail. My shredder is dying because I use it so much. You can call a single number to get your name and address removed for 5 years from the mailing…

  • Shouldn’t people know this already? What I’ve learned: When someone says one thing, but acts in a contradictory way, you have a choice between believing their words or believing their deeds. Believe their deeds. This applies to all areas of life, whether in business or relationships. Dear readers, save yourselves from being burned.

  • “After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.” —  Aldous Huxley I don’t have the words anymore.  Understand me.

  • Sweet Mercy

    I love this picture of Baron dunking on Ivan Drago.

  • No worries about bad language on this one–had to redeem myself after the last video.

  • “Found”, the latest episode of GALACTICAST is a parody of the TV show “Lost” and features a reference to those now famous numbers. Edit: oops, should have put up a warning about some “not so nice” words and magazines in the clip.

  • Don’t know what boba is? Educate yourself.

  • I think my friend Stan would get a kick outta this: IN PRISON: You spend the majority of your time in a 10X10 cell.AT WORK: You spend the majority of your time in an 8X8 cubicle. IN PRISON: You get three meals a day.AT WORK: You get a break for one meal and you have…

  • The Bible teaches that sin is a state of the heart. It separates us from God. The outward symptoms of sin are the individual sins we commit: lying, cheating, stealing, murder, adultery and so forth. Islam, on the other hand, teaches that people do not have a fallen nature. There is no original sin. Adam…

  • We Believe!

    The Warriors made it to ROUND 2. Check out my friend while we were watching last night’s game. For as long as I’ve known him (which is about the length of the Warrior’s drought), he was NEVER into sports. Look at him now: My friend emailed an article about photoshopped Chucks to me this morning.…

  • My fave line: “that was impressive — the way you can squeeze into those TINY little shorts……..SEXY” Eat that, old man Chuck. That said, go Warriors. +- By the way, flat tires are a pain…
