The Clark Brothers

Ever heard of The Clark Brothers? They just won the competition The Next Great American Band.
Three spirit-filled Christian boys who have been playing music literally their entire lives. Baron showed me a video of theirs a few weeks ago, and I forgot to keep up with how they were doing, and they won the hockin’ [...]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

I had a good time in NW Arkansas with my grandparents and family, but it’s always a nice feeling to come back home where everything is in order.
You have your own bathroom. You get to sleep in your own bed. You can dig through your pantry and make a pig out of yourself without fear [...]

Happy Non-Religious, Non-Denominational Universal Holiday to You and Yours!

Did you read the title? Didn’t quite have that “punch,” did it?
Once again we’re forced to sit through the Happy Holidays vs. Merry Christmas war. Yes, the whole politically-correct “Happy Holidays” thing gets on my nerves too, but what is anyone really going to do about it?
Here’s what will happen: millions of Christian Americans will [...]

Cop Experience #2 in One Week

Today I had my second experience with a law enforcement officer in one week. This one didn’t go as well.
You see, in Louisiana we have a state government cash cow known as the car inspection sticker. You give a place $10, and they’ll come out and slap a new one on your car without actually [...]

More News Lunacy

In case you haven’t logged on to a news site, read a newspaper, heard the latest gossip from your co-students/workers, or have otherwise been living in a cave for the past week, I’m sure that you’ve heard about Britney Spears’ 16-year-old sister, Jamie Lynn; she’s pregnant.
I have little more to say than this: the media [...]

Birbiglia Hilaria

That’s his Latin name, by the way. *points upward*
I’m not going to link directly to his blog because I found some “questionable” comments on it, but I did find some funny quips about presidential candidates on Mike Birbiglia’s blog. Mike Birbiglia, for those who don’t know, is a stand-up comedian who is popular enough to [...]

Excitement & Transparency

Tonight is an exciting time for me. It’s 1:19 AM. I’m sitting on the couch. My wife fell asleep well over an hour and a half ago, and my dog is curled up in an awkward position somewhere behind Shari’s heels.
So what have I been doing that’s so important that I haven’t moved my gluteus [...]

Trouble

Here are two of the shots that got me in trouble last night. They’re really nothing special; definitely nothing to get worked up about.
The first one is the one that probably got me in trouble.

Forgot to Mention…

In the last post, I forgot to mention something.
Camo-stache was hired to watch that store area at nights to make sure no one burglarizes the stores. He takes his job very seriously.
Camo-stache, I’ve got my eye on you.

Why Me?

A “funny” thing happened tonight.

Shari went to bed earlier than usual tonight, and even though I’m very tired, I’m nowhere near sleepy. I finally feel like I have the slightest bit of energy for the first time since Saturday. There’s no way I’m going to bed, right?

So I ran an errand: I filled the car [...]
