I was let go today.
While I needed the income I can’t say that I’m completely upset about this situation. Oh, I’m a little concerned about paying my bills but I honestly believe that there is something out there that I’m suppose to do and this was God’s way of giving me the opportunity to find [...]

2 When the LORD began to speak through Hosea, the LORD said to him, “Go, take to yourself an adulterous wife and children of unfaithfulness, because the land is guilty of the vilest adultery in departing from the LORD.” 3 So he married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

I’ve been playing around with Facebook and there’s this thing going around there about writing 25 random things about yourself. The posts in this weblog get automatically posted there so I thought I’d do mine here.

When Sammi, Mattie and I went out for our walk this morning it was below 20°F outside but with no wind and the sun was up a little in the sky. In spite of the low number on the themometer It was comfortable outside. I decided then that Sammie and I needed an extended, brisk [...]

A couple of weeks ago I found a reference to LinkedIn and I followed it. I had heard about this social networking site but hadn’t taken it very seriously because I’m just not “in” to that kind of stuff… or so I thought. A few minutes of looking at my friends profile and seeing reference [...]

Just wishing all of you a Merry Christmas and hoping whatever holiday you are celebrating this time of year is a safe and happy one.

I am having a problem with the plugin that ties my WordPress Software running this site with the Gallery 2 software I use to manage my photo gallary and it’s about to drive me nuts. There is also some other screwy things that are happening here that I just don’t understand (just call me Mr. [...]

I stopped in to see her for a little bit this evening. They had a splint on her right front leg to keep her from messing with the IV catheter and had sedated her. Other than that she seemed fine and happy to see me. If the nausea and diarrehia is gone I can take [...]

Sammie is sick. Between a case of diarrhea and nausea she’s managed to get herself dehydrated and is now on an IV. The vet says she will recover alright but she’s going to spend at least tonight with the vet. I’ll be leaving work in a few minutes to go sit with her for a [...]

I meant to leave work around 2:00pm on Monday to drive to St. Marys, Kansas. I didn’t leave until 4:00pm. This meant that almost half of my trip out here was in the dark. I stopped at a rest area around midnight in Paducah, Ky and slept for a couple of hours. I woke up [...]

I’ve been meaning to get on here and say something about our new president but that is old news now. I have some reservations about the direction he will take this country but all in all I think we may be charting a course in more of the direction we need to be traveling as [...]

This was suppose to be an outdoors weekend with my oldest son and my dog. The plan was that I would drive up to Chattanooga on Friday morning and he and I would get someone to drop us off on Jones Gap Rd. where the Cumberland Trail crosses Hwy 111 and we would then hike [...]

The PickensPlan is fairly simple and it will work. I’m not saying that the PickensPlan alone is the answer but it is definately a plan that will contribute to our overall plan of energy independance. The overall plan is going to have to include solar, nuclear and clean coal technology also being persued but the [...]

I found this video on MySpace a while ago and wanted to share it.
Guy Jumps Over a Bull
Physical skill and the gravitas to put it to use. While its stupid behavior I still sit in awe looking at it.
