It is hard to believe how quickly the summer is flying by.  It is already mid-June and it feels like we have hardly done anything yet.  Though with the number of firecalls this quarter – the free time has been down quite a bit.
Moving next month is helping give that impression of crunch time.  My [...]

Well Ede beat me to the punch, but mom had an awesome article about her in the paper today.

Schools Push and Get Results

A couple of teachers at a high school in the suburbs of Minneapolis, MN decided that they’d seen enough of their students fail and not go on to college. Instead of [...]

It’s actually an interesting question to ask yourself. “What does the internet do for me?”
News, entertainment, keeping in touch, games, etc. The potential list goes on for a while. The post about abandoning myspace came after sitting down and asking myself that exact question. “What was I really getting out of the time I was [...]

I will paste below this, my “myspace” post. The gist is however, I would rather upkeep this blog, than the mired mess of other social profiles I have managed to get myself into.

I really can’t wait to see all [...]

Well, Ede decided to keep something interesting going. A blogging version of tag. I have been given 5 works, I am supposed to say the word and the first thing that comes to mind with that word. It does seem like a bit o’ fun, so I will give it a try.
First [...]

Well the weekend was a fun time.  It was great hanging out with a bunch of the guys, and they made sure I had a good time too lol.  Not everyone could make it of course, but when dealing with that many schedules and at least 2-3 states, tooootally understandable.  There were 10 of us [...]

Well – it is going to be a fuuuun weekend!  We are having my bachelor party tomorrow in Fargo.  Why Fargo you might ask?  Well there are two reasons for that… first being that there are more forms and places of entertainment available there.  Second, and the larger reason I think, is that Jennie and [...]
