The Power of a Kiss

This morning my two year old son Dylan bumped his arm. he ran to daddy for comfort. I kissed his arm and he was healed. I had never thought about it before. How amazing is the healing power of a kiss. You kiss your wife in the morning or evening and it makes all the problems of your day melt away for a moment. So my advice to you is stop and kiss the ones you love. It will do you wonders.

Overwhelmed?

Have you ever felt overwhelmed? This week has been so far for me and it's only half over. I think the trick is to find a way to unwind. For me it is this blog. I never would have thought I would enjoy something like this but I do. Also don't be afraid of a little prayer time. It can do wonders. Then every so often I think about Tim the Enchanter and what he used to say.

Follow only if ye be men of valour, for the entrance to this cave is guarded by a creature so foul, so cruel that no man yet has fought with it and lived! Bones of full fifty men lie strewn about its lair. So, brave knights, if you do doubt your courage or your strength, come no further, for death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth.

Monty Python's quest for the Holy Grail

History is written by the winners

Have you ever thought about what that really means? It's like saying there are two sides to every story. The winner of a war is the one that writes the book to slant in its own favor. Take the english. If you read the history books you would most likely find that Scotland was inhabited by savages that fought with each other over the rule of the country and the english brought them peace and humanity. If you ask the Scottish you might get an entirely different answer. So think about that the next time you read a paper or watch CNN or Fox News. Don't just take somebody's' word for it. Take advantage of the web and decide for yourself. Don't be afraid to ask someone for their opinion or just a little help.

I want you

Let your voice be heard. Dylan wants you to vote on the poll. There are only a few days left so don't miss your chance.

Dylan also wants you to watch his newest video. It's at the bottom of the page.

Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball

If you know what that means then you may already be laughing to yourself as you remember when Saturday Night Live was still funny. It was a great show for 20 years or so. Even after that it had a moment or two. So what has happened to make it the crap we have today? Is there just no creativity left or has our society fallen so far as to find SNL funny? I guess I'm just getting to old to understand today's humor.

Degree of change

This morning when I was getting ready for work I grabbed a new stick of deodorant. Degree for men. When I opened it up the was a plastic top under the lid. I removed it to see the words EMBRACE CHALLENGE stamped into my deodorant. I thought to myself what an odd place to get your life goals from. Despite the oddity I thought about it for a minute. Why not embrace challenge. You really only have two choices run from it or embrace it. A person that embraced challenge may fail more often than one that doesn't but he will succeed where the other is unwilling to try. Successful people have to embrace challenge and I want to be a successful person. So if you have been the type of person that runs from a challenge for fear of failing make a change in your life today. Do it today and you may fail but then again you may be successful.


Who knew you could learn so much from your deodorant.

The Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial

These pictures were taken today as my family and I visited the memorial. I go there every year on the 19th of April but have never just taken the time to look at everything. It brings back difficult memories. That is the day I almost lost my father. God had an angel with my father that day.

The first picture is of the chairs. Each chair represents a person that died. There are 168 of them.
The second is of the reflection pool and the main gate.
The third is the survivor tree.
The fourth is my father and I standing in front of the survivor tree.
The fifth is a statue named The weeping Jesus. You may notice that his back is to the bombing memorial. It is across the street from the memorial.

Why the Democrats won't win in 2008

Now before everybody gets all upset I would like to preface this post by saying I neither agree nor condone the following I am simply stating how I view the general public.

The reason I don't feel the democrats will win the election in 2008 is simple. This country isn't ready to elect a woman or a black man. At least not one named Barack Hussein Obama. The best chance the dems have for winning this election is John Edwards. The problem is he wont be able to raise the money. Hillary can't carry the female vote and without it she can't win the election. Obama won't be able to carry enough of the white vote and will have the same result. Therefore we will have a Republican in office again in 2008.

If you can't find something wrong with this there is something wrong with you

I was reading the story that I have linked to at the end of this article and remembering how it all went down. Now I read this article. This is a problem. We are supposed to have a system of checks and balances. If we aren't allowed to for our elected officials responsible for their wrong doings then who is. I just see this a more proof that our system and our politicians are corrupt.
