Is this a man-law or what?

So, I won a surround sound system at a Christmas party last week. Suh-weet! I have a karate student who is a computer whiz, Nick, and he came over on Sunday to create a ghost of my hard drive because it's been so long since my last crash that I was starting to get nervous. While the computer was... Sign in to see full entry.

I saw Neil Sedaka in concert

That's who was playing here this weekend. I get to see quite a variety of people out here. One thing that we do with all the entertainers that come out here is try to get our back stage passes signed by them. The guy that coordinates all the activity for the Concert Hall gathers them up in a pile so... Sign in to see full entry.

More on Santa Claus

So we went to see Santa the other night and Trey was not impressed. He liked to see Santa... from a distance. The big man is cool at about 12 to 15 feet. Any closer and all the fun goes out the window. The city does this raffle thing for Christmas presents and displays the presents. You buy raffle... Sign in to see full entry.

Last year Trey loved Santa Claus. This year . . .

Here is a picture of Trey escaping the vile clutches of the fat man in the red suit. He was off the lap before I could even snap off a picture and there was absolutely no chance of getting him to return. On a blogger's note, I would like to point out that it's a good thing that Santa has his name on... Sign in to see full entry.

Shhhhh, don't telll anyone but Santa has snuck me a present already

It's still a little bit dark but that's better than the last one. You see, Santa snuck me a light for my camera. It's not a flash because the camera isn't rigged for a flash. I bought a camcorder that could also take pictures. I thought that I would take more movies than pictures. I was wrong. Way... Sign in to see full entry.

I don't really want to talk about this because it's kind of personal

and painful. I knew that it was going to be this way but you know, you always hope, don't you? You know the reality of the situation but you keep yourself in denial. You hope. You pray. God doesn't answer all prayers in the way that you want, does he? Maybe he takes a vote and rates the belief of... Sign in to see full entry.

Terri Clark is a dirty girl

One good thing about Terri Clark was that it makes it easier for me to do my job. I'm not trying to watch or listen to the country stars and I just focus on the crowd. She allowed flash photography so there really wasn't a whole lot to watch for. Just had to make sure the fans didn't get too wild... Sign in to see full entry.

Terri Clark tonight and Trans-Siberian Orchestra tomorrow

I'm listening to Terri Clark right now to try to innoculate my system. I don't want to be put into siezures when I'm supposed to be watching rednecks for signs of trouble. I'm going to have to dig my cowboy boots out of the closet and buy a can of chew so I can blend in. Just kidding. I don't own... Sign in to see full entry.

Belaying for my son

I usually sit on one of those big stability balls when I type and I wear a hoody now that it's winter. Putting the two together is a great adventure for a two year old. He comes up behind me and grabs the hood of my coat and climbs up the back of the ball. I try to keep on typing while I make all... Sign in to see full entry.

Countdown to TSO

It's not just the Trans-Siberian Orchestra this Saturday but it's the whole day. We will probably leave here around 10am after I've had a fair amount of sleep. Fair being 6 hours. 6 hours is pretty good especially on the weekend. We are going to go to my wife's favorite restaurant. A Chinese... Sign in to see full entry.
