Congratulations Andy and Kelly!

I’d like to congratulate my good friend Andy Hansen on his engagement with Kelly J. Stack.  Andy has been my friend since that fateful first day of school in second grade.  We have been through a lot over the years and I couldn’t be more happy for him and Kelly. 



Fiddler on the Roof…But No Fiddle

Just when you thought this blog had become so stale that it was time for the garbage, fate brings me a large golden egg of a story… It’s Tuesday night (technically Wednesday morning) at 3am.  I’m awaken by a text message from my roommate.  It reads: It sounds like someone is on the roof.  Did [...]



Marathon Time!

It was on the yearly bucket list and it’s going to be conquered.  I have decided to run the Long Beach Marathon in October!  I ran the half marathon last year and this year it’s the FULL!  Skeptical?  I believe I hear those snickers and doubts through the monitor.  Warranted?  Maybe.  Will you be eating [...]

Two Phone Numbers a Day

One of these challenges is “Get Phone Numbers.” Everyday he challenges the reader to ask for two phone numbers from a member [...]



My New Art

I’d like to share with everyone the art that I purchased from my friend Heather Knight. She is a wonderful artist whose work elicits powerful emotion from those who view it. I knew the first time I saw these two pieces that I had to have them. I am proud to display them in my [...]



No Vlog Today

Sorry everyone, I didn’t have time (yet again) to make a vlog. I’m sorry! I plan on taking some more video footage and implementing that into more vlogs. I’m on this new “Yes Man” kick and trying new experiences everyday. I’m sure there will be a few blog or vlog posts about that will delve [...]
