Today, being my 35th birthday, calls for a special blog entry. I have asked my Mom and Dad to write a GUEST blog entry. I hope you enjoy it, and if any of my brothers or sisters have anything to add, please feel free to leave a comment.
REMBERANCES OF AUGUST 21, 1973

Today, I turn 35.
New Frames
I seldom wear eyeglasses. Mostly at night, after wearing contact lenses all day, I can be found wearing my glasses. Weston loves to grab glasses. He calls them “eyes.” A few days ago, he found “daddy’s eyes” in the bathroom drawer in their protective case. He grabbed them and promptly broke [...]
A final performance
I saw the Dark Knight today with my Dad. I thought the movie was well done. Dad and I both agreed that overall the acting was very good, and we especially thought Heath Ledger gave a great performance. I think his performance was worthy of an Oscar nomination for this film. [...]

I was not interested in reading about the numerous conspiracy theories, but was more interested in making my own observations and conclusions based on the facts. I found a book titled, No More Silence which includes unedited [...]
Sniper’s Nest
This weekend, I went to the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas , Texas. This is the location where alleged gunman Oswald assassinated President John Kennedy. The museum was very interesting, and I was able to get an up-close look at the sniper’s nest on the 6th floor of the school book depository. [...]
Yarn Lover
Yesterday I was at a gas station filling up and looked over toward the parking lot. There was an older lady standing next to her car, clearly she was waiting for her husband to return to the car from inside. She had a set up a bag on the trunk and was using it to [...]
Drugged Up
I have been battling with a dreadful sinus infection over the past 48 hours. It is not only painful, but is difficult to sleep at night - only compounding my body’s ability to fight the infection. Over the past 48 hours, I have taken the drugs pictured below. The only one that [...]
