The church office becomes a bit distracting. All of us employees have a habit of visiting each other’s offices to pester one another, ask their opinion on something, and generally make the office as personable as possible. My office is also located right at the main entrance, so I get heavy amounts of traffic in [...]

Outraged! Shocked! Chagrined!
From BreitBart:
Barack Obama has called an emergency press conference in an effort to clean up this whole Jeremiah Wright mess.
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) – Democrat Barack Obama said Tuesday he was outraged and appalled by the latest comments from his former pastor, who asserted that criticism of his fiery sermons is an attack on the [...]

A New World
Okay, I’m not old, but I remember popping in records onto the family record player and singing along with Bert and Ernie. We didn’t have a ton of records, exactly, but it was cool in retrospect.
Then there were the cassette tapes. They were limited (in retrospect), but they could hold soooo much music!
God this sounds [...]

Muchos Gracias!
I feel compelled to thank all the well-wishers who said a prayer and/or followed up on me concerning the surgery. Everything seems to have gone very well. I’m healing up well, but something life-altering happened Friday that I felt compelled to share.
The doc prescribed me Percocet, which I wasn’t exactly thrilled about. I’m not a [...]

Surgery Recap
My surgery was a total success, as far as I can tell. The only problem is that this Percacet makes me feel loopy and gives me the hiccups. At least it takes care of the pain.
The base of my neck before the surgery:
Me, acting like a goofball before surgery. Shari and the mother were evidently [...]

Lincoln Stanley: Houston Astro
This is one of my favorite family pictures I’ve ever taken. I tried a slightly different style of editing in Lightroom that an acquaintance shared with a group of people, and messed around with the sliders until I came up with this…
The kid loves being an Astro.

Darron & Chasity
Finally finished up this set. Shari and I (predictably) laughed up a storm, had a blast, and got a dirty look from a laundromat patron with Darron and Chas. We love you guys! For real.
There will be more with Chasity and Darron after their wedding in June. I’m unbelievably honored and pumped up about it. [...]

Darron & Chasity: Preview
Shari and I had an awesome, awesome, awesome time shooting engagement shots for Darron and Chasity today. I was going to pull one of those up-til-4 a.m. nights where I edited until I fell over half-dead, but I’m so hockin’ exhausted that I can’t stay up.
THEREFORE, here are two preview shots from the set. Chas [...]

Who’s Leading Me?
When I was about 9-years-old, my friend Josh asked me to go with him and his dad to a basketball game at Centenary College in Shreveport, Louisiana. I had never been to a college game of any sort, and I was a huge basketball fan, so I got pretty excited.
We arrived early, got the tickets, [...]

Tiger Woods: FAIL!
I don’t pay uber-close attention to the golf season, but The Masters just ended yesterday, and I always try to keep up with it. It’s one of the biggest events in modern sports, and definitely the most prominent in golf.
So when Tiger Woods began talking up a 2008 Grand Slam to the media early this [...]
