The Honorable Judge Matthew Larkin Strom Presiding
Apparently, I needed about a month off from blogging. I just can’t be hassled with anything resembling an original thought lately. I may or may not write more regularly in the near future.
In the mean time, here is a nonpartisan advertisement to promote voter registration…

Mel just left for Siloam Springs, Arkansas. I will be leaving with her students on Sunday for a one week mission trip there. I expect it to be an awesome experience, and I may write a few blogs from there.
I made a mixtape (which is cooler than saying “playlist) for the trip. It goes like this:
1) “For Those About To Rock” – AC/DC
2) “Bohemian Rhapsody” – Queen
3) “Wanted Dead Or Alive” – Bon Jovi
4) “Young Folks” – Peter Bjorn and John
5) “Roxanne” – The Police
6) “Don’t Stop Believin’” – Journey
7) “Simple Man” – Lynyrd Skynyrd
8) “Sweet Emotion” – Aerosmith
9) “Blinded By The Light” – Manfred Mann
10) “Have A Cigar” – Pink Floyd
11) “The Joker” – Steve Miller Band
12) “Possum Kingdom” – The Toadies
13) “Last Dance With Mary Jane” – Tom Petty
14) “Stairway To Heaven” – Led Zeppelin
15) “All These Things That I’ve Done” – The Killers
That’s all I have to say about that.
Vaya con Dios, amigos.

If I had $50 million (after tax) in lottery winnings or an unexpected windfall, these are a few of the things that I would do with the dough: Read the rest of this entry »
I have baby fever. I want to have a baby, bad. Mel and I aren’t ready yet. We just got married three months ago and we still have stuff that we want to do before we have children. But every time I see a baby or small child do something cute, or even slightly amusing, I swoon like a schoolgirl watching Zac Efron. Last night at the Rangers game I saw a cute baby and got an idea. When I see a cute baby that makes me want to have children, I will try to take a picture with my phone. Then I will assign the baby a rating on a scale of 1-10, where 10 is the cutest baby that I have ever seen or can reasonably expect to ever see again.
On to my first baby rating… Read the rest of this entry »
Last Wednesday, my friend Tett asked me to tell him three things about Sea Monkeys. I could not offer any solid facts, so I hunkered down for some research time. I won’t be caught off-guard the next time that somebody asks me about Sea Monkeys. Here are a few tidbits for you: Read the rest of this entry »
My quest for a beard continues. This week my facial hair is visible, if not impressive. I would liken it to the playoff beard of one Daniel Brière, of the Philadelphia Flyers. Read the rest of this entry »
This is my first baseball blog. I was planning to wait until the All-Star break to talk about the Texas Rangers. I will still write that blog, which will discuss my pre-season predictions and how they are coming along. But I want to write a little about the last month. The Rangers started the season with a 5-4 record in their first 9 games, but fell to 9-18 by the end of April.
Then there was May… Read the rest of this entry »
There is an intriguing article in the June issue of Esquire by John H. Richardson, who spent a week with John Yoo. Yoo is the author of the Torture Memos, which were signed by John Ashcroft while he was still working for the Bush administration. The documents are very controversial, and some people want Yoo to be tried as a war criminal. Read the rest of this entry »
I want to make a table top using Shiner beer bottle caps. I don’t know what size, shape or design yet, but I have a general idea of how I want to go about it. Read the rest of this entry »
