Update of my situation

2009-12-27T22:10:00.002-06:00

Hey all. I have now moved to Springfield, IL. My family and I have began working in a deaf outreach program. We are learning ASL. It is a wonderful language filled with warmth and feeling. I have really enjoy it. I may start a different blog to document our progress.

Mommies and Daddies

2007-06-24T22:25:00.000-05:00

Mommies and Daddies

Mommies are there for you
When you need them the most.

To care for you when you are sick
To make you buttered toast.

They hold you on their lap
And hug you when you are sad.

When they don’t know what to do,
They turn you over to Dad.

Daddies show love in many other ways
They like to watch over you close.

You may think they don’t want you to have fun.
But they are keeping an eye on what matters most.

They work hard for all in the family.
Their hands are big, calloused and strong.

But they use those hands to hold you with love
Or even to teach you when you are wrong.

Daddies and mommies are always good.
A father or mother, anyone can be.

But it takes a special person,
To earn the name Daddy and Mommy.

(I wrote this poem based on a pencil drawing of my in-laws done by my art teacher.)

2007-06-20T20:51:00.000-05:00

Was over in Sullivan and took photos of Mr. Lincoln. Evidently he was there for a speech. Here are some photos of the monument.

What is up with the guys hat at the bottom of the monument?

Pencil Drawing

2007-06-20T20:19:00.000-05:00

While I was camping, I drew this. It is not perfect but since I have not done graphite since I was in High School, I am rather pleased with the outcome.

What do you think?

Road Rage in Springfield, IL

2007-06-19T06:59:00.000-05:00

Last week on the way to work I noticed a police car that pulled over a large semi truck. I was in the right lane and traffic was moving pretty quick. I decided to get over to the left lane so it would be safer for the cop. So I put my signal on. The first car ignored me so I let them pass. The second car was way behind me so I changed lanes. Evidently that car was going really fast because she came right up on me. As soon as I got around the police man, she flew around me and then told me I was number 1 in her book…

I sped up and caught up with her. As I pulled around her she started shouting and gesturing at me, so I took her picture with my cell phone. It is blurry since we both were moving pretty good, but here it is:

Thought I would share with you…

Ok, I am back. I was camping with my family for the last 5 days. No internet access :) Got some neat photos and also all of us had ticks on us. The nasty little buggers were everywhere. I have some photographs to share as well as a new pencil drawing to post. So check back in a day or two. It will take me a little bit to get everything organized..etc.

2007-06-05T14:21:00.001-05:00

Our Time

2007-04-28T07:00:00.000-05:00

Lying with my baby,
underneath the stars,
Moon so bright and shiny
"Hey, I think that's Mars."

My truck bed is filled
with sleeping bags and pillows.
We hear the night sounds
and the wind in the willows.

This time is ours,
no one can take away.
We try to talk about something,
But think of nothing to say.

So we hold each other tightly,
and promise to never leave,
to keep this moment forever,
but we know that's just naive.

So we cherish the moments
that we can be as one.
Knowing it could end soon.
Something will ruin our fun.

Thunder off in the distance.
Clouds appear overhead.
Rain begins to fall on us.
We need an umbrella instead.

Rain falls down hard,
soaking us to the bone.
We run inside laughing,
only to hear the phone.

It's the babysitter calling,
telling us the news.
Kids are sleeping soundly
after a night of Blue's Clues.

So off to bed we go,
Thinking of the nice times we had.
Having kids at the babysitters,
hey, that's not half bad.

I stopped by the visitor center in downtown San Diego. They had this interesting model of the entire San Diego city. I took photos to share with you.

This is a view of the US Midway and Seaport Village to the right.

This shows Downtown San Diego.

This long building is the Convention Center where my conference was held. I was told it is almost a mile long from one end to the other. It had a great view of the water.

This is obviously a ball diamond.

The two white buildings on the lower right is the same building that shows up in this photo.

The "Gorey" Details

2007-02-27T15:52:00.000-06:00

Global Warming is on the rise and experts say we need to reduce are "carbon footprint" by using less energy. Al Gore won an Oscar for his documentary for 'Inconvenient Truth'. But the details were left out. According to ABC News,

"Armed with Gore's utility bills for the last two years, the Tennessee Center for Policy Research charged Monday that the gas and electric bills for the former vice president's 20-room home and pool house devoured nearly 221,000 kilowatt-hours in 2006, more than 20 times the national average of 10,656 kilowatt-hours."

Bye-Bye Miss American Pie

2007-02-03T09:01:00.000-06:00

Well another year has come and went. Its time to dust of the mp3 songs of the late 1950's and load them on the I-Pod or MP3 player and remember a simpler time when music was just rock-n-roll and greenhouse gases were only found in greenhouses. Yes the date today is February 3, 2007. And 48 years ago today was the "Day the Music Died." Songs like Peggy Sue, La Bamba and Chantilly Lace may not mean much to the the 'Britney Spears' generation, but they always will have meaning for those who remember how Rock-N-Roll started. These musicians helped shape what music is today. So next time you are driving by Chantilly Lace on South 5th St, or flipping through the stations on television and catch a glimpse of La Bamba or The Buddy Holly Story, or even a MTV Behind the music special on any of the artists that died that day, just remember what Rock-N-Roll used to be like and how those early stages supplied the bedrock for some of the Rock-N-Roll we have today.

So bye-bye, miss American pie.

Drove my Chevy to the levee,

But the levee was dry.

Groundhog Day--Origins

I was curious about Groundhog day, wondering where it call came from. Of course, it being a superstition that the groundhog seeing or not seeing his shadow can actually predict the weather is absolutely ludicrous. But looking beyond that, where does this holiday come from.

I found that Feb 2 is the date of two holidays. One is Candlemas and the other is Imbolic. Candlemas is a holiday celebrated by people professing to be Christian and Imbolic is a non-Christian or "Pagan" holiday. Both are closely related to the purification of women. One is the purification of Mary, the other the purification of Mother Earth.
Candlemas honors the Mary and Imbolic honors Mother Earth as a goddess.

According to Wikipedia: "Modern Pagans have argued that Candlemas is a Christianization of the Gaelic festival of Imbolc, which was celebrated in pre-Christian Europe (and especially the Celtic Nations) at about the same time of year. This festival marked the mid-way point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. The term "Imbolc" translates as either "in milk" or "in the belly," and marked the birth and nursing of the spring lambs as a sign of the first stirrings of spring in the middle of winter."

Wikipedia also has this to say about how they came up with the date for Candlemas.

The date of Candlemas is established by the date set for the Nativity of Jesus, for it comes forty days afterwards. Under Mosaic law, a mother who had given birth to a man-child was considered unclean for seven days; moreover she was to remain for three and thirty days "in the blood of her purification." Candlemas therefore corresponds to the day on which Mary, according to Jewish law^[2] should have attended a ceremony of ritual purification. The gospel of Luke 2:22–39 relates that Mary was purified according to the religious law, followed by Jesus' presentation in the Jerusalem temple, and this explains the formal names given to the festival.

In the West, the date of Christmas is now fixed at December 25, and Candlemas therefore falls the following February 2. The dating is identical among Orthodox Christians, except that the ecclesiastic December 25th of most Orthodox Christians falls on January 7th of the civil calendar due to a theological dispute related to the adoption of the Gregorian calendar, meaning that most Orthodox Christians celebrate the feast on February 15th.

Also if you research Imbolic at all you will find it steeped in the religion of Witches or Wicca.

So one may wonder why any wanting to please God would want to participate in any of these holidays since they both linked with non-Christian teachings. Something to think about...

Another UFO photo at O'Hare--PhotoFriday Strange

Here is another one that I found in my photos I took while at O'Hare.

Is this a Real O'Hare UFO photograph?

2007-01-30T13:11:00.000-06:00

I have been seeing a lot of posts about the UFO's above O'Hare. So I went back to some of my own photographs I took while I was at O'Hare. And low and behold if I did not catch a photograph of a UFO. Here is the photo I took:

I think this is truly amazing. What is really weird is how this UFO looks a lot like the one in Flight of the Navigator.
I am wondering if the producers of that movie are actual aliens from another planet and are trying to tell us that there really is life beyond Earth.

Or maybe I am making this all up at my lame attempt to be funny.

I guess you will never know. But the Truth is out there!
