So back on New Year’s Day, my alma mater, the University of Cincinnati football game played in a bowl game against Virginia Tech. Since my dad works at VT, we put a little prop bet on the game. The loser had to wear a hat of the winner and take a picture at work with…

So on my way to work today I saw one of those ARTIMIS signs on 71 northbound. It said Work Crew ahead North of Rest AreaExpect Long Delays As I drove past I thought well isn't that one of the most worthless messages ever? The only rest area I can think of is the one…

So here's a snippet of something that we got in the mail the other day.  Read it and then tell me if you think this is something mandatory. I'll leave a comment with some more details but I'm interested in your first thoughts on whether or not this is mandatory. —–Dear <someone>, We would appreciate…

Thought I would update you on my change race.  I’m up to $1.90 in change now.  I’ve gotten a few people at work interested and we’re racing, though we are still trying to figure out the exact details and rules and such. Jeff left me a comment on my Bike ride home post that he…

I am thankful for lots of things. I am thankful for Jesus, and for the Book of Mormon. I am thankful for my awesome wife, who woke me up with the smells of piping hot orange danishes this morning. Mmm danishes, they are SO much better than sweet rolls. Oh yeah, danishes, danishes, danishes! I’m…

So my mother-in-law recently moved to Colorado. Very disappointing on the demise of the free babysitting tip. Oh yeah I guess we actually miss her (and my brothers-in-law) too :-).
