In my search for the end of the internet, I have yet again stumbled upon a site that makes me understand the immensity that is the internet. http://www.beedogs.com - Yep, a site specializing in dogs dressed as bees. And if that isn't enough to convince

A few weeks back, my wife had found a recipe that suggested using mayonaisse with grilled cheese instead of butter. So, we tried it, and it was not terrible. Today we ran out of butter, and I wanted to make grilled cheese for lunch, so Nina suggested

The thought crossed my mind tonight that there is no holiday for the creation of the earth. It would seem that that day is pretty important to all of us. The recent controversy of creation vs. evolution has become a mainstream issue, and prompted this

Why is it that we allow our government to behave the way they do? I am not directing this specifically at the democrats or even the filibuster, although I will get there in a moment. Both parties are filled with corruption, and both parties have leaders

So, me and Nina are looking forward to another little one in September. Eva is such a joy to be around, and too easy to take care of, so we didn't want the streak to end (Or we were itching to be shown how tough it should be...). Anyways, it is early,

I thought I should post about my dislike of the phrase 'Duly Noted'. It is not that it is so bad, but honestly who really says that? It seems like the only time you would really say that is when you are saying it just because it is funny... it isn't all

One of my favorite shows is coming back for another round. I wasn't aware of it until my TiVo recorded the pre-premier tonight (Gotta love the TiVo). So, I felt a need to let people know it's back, and appears to be decent. I have some reservations about

Alright, been awhile since the last family update, so here goes. Eva is almost 7 months old, and doing well. She had some shots yesterday, and got a little fever over night last night, but seems to be doing well today. She is crawling all over the place,

I have been having a very difficult time lately listening to any radio station. In West Michigan, we have quite a few radio stations, covering lots of different types of music. Unfortunately, for some reason, lately I cannot find a single station I can

After watching Pete Hoekstra on TV this morning I feel that I must amend my Previous Post . Pete seemed to make a lot of sense regarding the spying issue. I had not understood before that the congress was so well involved with the whole process. Also,

I have a free domestic flight coming to me with my FF miles. The problem is, we can't decide where to go. There are lots of great places to go, but I just can't pick one. I am opening up this survey to see what you all think. Post a comment to let me

I got Nina a laptop for Christmas, and love this whole wireless thing. Even as a self proclaimed 'geek' and electrical engineer that knows how all this stuff works, I am still totally amazed by this wireless stuff. I can sit on the couch with just the

You may remember my excitement about the DDR for the cube from an earlier post . Well, I passed it in the store a couple times this fall, but opted to wait for Christmas to obtain my version. Then Christmas came and went, but I have no DDR: Mario Mix.

So, I got Nina this super-cool shirt for Christmas, and had to show y'all. I have had the ThinkGeek.com link in the links section for a while now, but haven't mentioned it for fear of giving away the secret of the gift. So anyways, if you haven't checked

Here's my first post of the new year. I am quite sure every blogger must post a New Year's entry, so here goes mine, against my better judgment. This past year has been another great year. Here are a few things that made this past year sweet. The birth
