Um, Give Us Just A Few More Decades

I got this off of eyejabber.com apparently it is a TV screen shot of a CNN broadcast on February 1, 2003 -- the day Shuttle Columbia met its end. Right now we'd just like to get up to ONE times the speed of light. Sign in to see full entry.

Ingratitude

I went to the wedding of my friend Greg and his new bride Heidi. Greg and I work together at the paper. I only met her today, but knowing Greg I would have to say she is one lucky lady.

Dining with the Klumps

Friday evening we went to dinner at Bennigan's. Before we were served food, the manager came over and said he needed the area our table was in to seat a party of 18. He said they were probably going to be kinda loud. He offered to pay for our dessert to compensate. So we decided to take the offer... Sign in to see full entry.

My friend has a shaved head and is mostly Hispanic, but blends in perfectly in any group of Caucasians. Now this is a typical doctor's office with back to back rows of chairs...
