  • I have no idea who Erin and Tim are but I absolutely love this groomsmen or after wedding ceremony picture they are in.  It’s just awesome.  Feel free to check out more of their wedding photos at hofferphotography.com.
  • I think it’s time to take this blog in a new direction.  I don’t know what that means, but I think it’s time.
  • Our church is doing an angel tree this year and my angel requested new shoes.  As a surprise, I slipped in some cash inside the shoes.
  • FamilyGeeding had the honor of lighting the Advent candle at church yesterday.  I wish our church made a bigger emphasis on Advent.  That is one thing I miss about Irving Bible Church, they did a great job on the significance of Advent.
  • After treating WifeGeeding to a fancy dinner at Golden Corral (you think I’m joking) we watched the Coppell/Trinity football game on channel 21.  WifeGeeding was a teacher in Coppell for the last seven or so years and was rooting her heart out, but her poor little heart was crushed as Trinity scored on the last play of the game – the only time they had a lead in the game.  The whole game was much a basketball game with a lot of scoring and the team that misses on one possession ends up losing.  That’s basically what happened when Coppell failed to score a touchdown in the fourth and settled for a field goal.
  • With yesterday’s win you can bet the family farm that GarrettTop will be the next Cowboys coach.
  • It’s about time Tashard Choice got some carries, too bad it took a Marion Barber injury for it to happen.  Trust me on this one, the guy is a more than a good player and a damn good team leader.
  • I don’t like nor do I trust our kicker.
  • You think Jerry is regretting not firing Wade two games earlier?
  • Love that fire that Kitna has.
  • Do any of the Ravens wear pads in the pants?
  • Tis the season for Lexus making feeling like the only way to make my wife happy is to buy her a new car.
  • The United States of Autocomplete
  • The Cup Size Choir is one part French lingerie models and one part interactive keyboard piano, and may just be a bit racy for this blog.
  • Show how much you almost care with an empty gesture ribbon.  I’ve never been a fan of these sort of things on cars or even Christian shirts or the ichthus on a car- I think it’s more important for a person’s deeds to represent one’s life rather than one’s words or symbols.  Yeah, sometimes you can buy something like a Livestrong bracelet with money going to support a cause, and I that’s beneficial, but normally I find this sort of stuff just silly.  Slap a stick or magnet on your car saying you support the troops and doing nothing else isn’t really supporting the troops.
  • Star Wars Themed Alphabet
  • I feel like the WikiLeaks founder is a lot like a Austin Powers evil mastermind.
  • In case you were wondering, it wasn’t until the 1970’s when prisoners started to wear orange.
  • Killing Bono movie trailerTwo brothers attempt to become global rock stars but can only look on as old school friends U2 become the biggest band in the world.

  • Aiden?  Nothing wrong with the name, I just haven’t known anyone with the name.  100 most popular baby names of 2010 To be honest, I’m surprised there aren’t more Hispanic names.

  • It’s just the first week of December and that song played during the Tommy Hilfiger and Honda commercials is driving me batty.  I may take hostages the next time I hear that annoying song.
  • I don’t think I want to do the whole Santa thing in my family for pretty much the same reason my friend Andy doesn’t do it with his family.  But I’ll probably cave in just to make WifeGeeding happy.
  • If you are a student at Penn State and turn 21 you get emailed this link.

  • Rock ‘N Roll Map of Manhattan

  • Boehner to create ladies’ room off House floor
  • Just an observation about  the picture below which hangs on one of the walls of the headquarters of Southwest Airlines (just click to enlarge).  The person on the left is Herb Kelleher, a co-founder and Chairman Emeritus and former CEO and President of the airline.  You’ve heard me gush about him before, but the person on the right is no other than Neil Armstrong.  What cracks me up is that the first human to ever set foot on the moon, one of the most famous persons from a historical perspective, is wearing a name tag.  I know he’s not one to be in the spotlight much and he’s aged and all and that  “one small step for man”  moment happened over 40-years ago , but just the thought of the first human on the moon having to wear  a name tag is a bit funny to me.

  • Sometimes me and my friends will play the one-up game.  You know, you say something like “I once ran a nine-minute mile” and then your buddy will retort with “Oh yeah, I once ran an eight-minute mile” and then this will go on and on from topic to topic.   But the thing with Neil Armstrong is no one can ever one-up the man.  Seriously.
    • Two term presidents – there’s been many, he’s the first to set foot on the moon.
    • Super Bowl MVP –  – there’s been many, he’s the first to set foot on the moon.

    • Starred in the highest grossing film of all time – that record will breat, he’s the first to set foot on the moon.
    • First human in space – he’s don’t one better, he’s the first to set foot on the moon.
