I didn't do it.....
...I was not even born when it happened? And neither were any of the rest of you, so why offer an apology for something that I am not responsible for? Oh, don't get me wrong, I am not proud of my forefathers, but just because there was a proclamation of emancipation, this did not abolish slavery. It is alive and well throughout the world. So, what ( Read more... ) -
I was tooling around...
...around with the video we bought from Disney and thought I would try my hand at a little splicing and editing. I wanted this so my niece and nephew could see themselves.
Not the best, but I was playing and learning.

WOW, scuba is kewl!
Well, its been over a year since we've been wet and blowing bubbles. Last month, we were shopping around for local dive shops and found one that was going to Disney to dive in "The Living Seas".

I wanted to take a moment....
... to thank my friend and to tell them just how proud I am of him. I know that he has had a lot happen in his life over the past year and that he has probably felt like the train has rolled over him not once or twice, but many times. I know it has been hard for him and that he's been wanting to get his life back under some semblance of control, ( Read more... ) -

Last year one of us was sick so we did not get out to explore the Tampa area for the forth. So, this year was our first. After packing up the car, filling it up and hitting the ATM, we were off. I asked T where she wanted to go and ( Read more... ) -

Various things on my mind
A friend posted in her journal about how hard exercise is for certain people (people with disabilities or on medications). I responded there, but wanted to post here too. Exercise is not an physical activity as much as it is a mental one. I've lost 35 pounds in just under 3 months. I am closer to my goal than I thought I would be and I exercise ( Read more... ) -
I owe someone an apology.
I owe someone an apology. Dez, I read what you said in your post wrong. It was a simple mistake and for that I apologize.
What you said:
We voted for Bush both times. … What this country needs is another Regan or better yet a Teddy Roosevelt.

When the rich wage war, it ‘s the poor who die
A couple of days ago, I overheard a conversation, or one side of it. Shawn was standing in the doorway of the office of a couple of our media and usability specialists. Their office is just behind my cube, so it was not like I was straining to hear and he was not talking a hushed voice. I’ve known him for a while; Shawn came back from Iraq shortly ( Read more... )
