Just a quick update on the soon-to-be-available books from GregsHead… I was supposed to have received the copies of Rearview Mirror in Ohio, but they were shipped to my sister’s neighbor’s house… they didn’t know who I was, so they sent the package back to Nebraska where it was shipped from. It shipped again yesterday…

Pilfering, Absconding, and On The Lam
Well I WAS going to bed… As I was leaving my office at 1:23am, after posting my last blog and cleaning up a few emails, I noticed a light outside. I thought it odd, since I knew I had not left the outside light on. (Plus, it was too dim for our outside lights.) I…
Nostalgia
By a super-bizarre set of circumstances, we stumbled across my first school on Tuesday. I went to kindergarten here in 1980 I believe… That’s a long time ago. I only lasted here 3 weeks before my parents put me in a Christian school. (More advanced educationally… public school wasn’t cuttin’ it.) This is me and…
Wow
This is for real. A massive structure visible for miles on the interstate (I-75 north of Cincinnati, OH). A really big, really scary Jesus. Yikes. UPDATE: Touchdown Jesus… Butter Jesus… whatever you might call him, perished on June 15th, 2010, from a lightning strike that engulfed the statue in flames, leaving only the charred, steel…
Three So Far
It all started early last Saturday morning. We had driven across the state of Virginia, visited with friends, and enjoyed a night in a decent hotel room on the previous Friday. We awoke early in the morning so that we could get a jump on the day and enjoy more time with family in Ohio….
Complaining
We just got to spend a few days with my sister at her house in Cincinnati. That is so rare. We usually see each other in large family gatherings, and then for only an afternoon or something. So this weekend was greatly anticipated, and in many ways, did not disappoint. We had a great time…
Weird
I got up at 7 something this morning again. Two weeks in a row. What happened to my day off? 🙂 It will be fun to sing with my sister this morning. Looking forward to meeting Gil Contreras as well. He’s a bit of a legend. My bro-in-law calls him the Billy Graham of Mexico….
We Made It
We just arrived at our stop for the night. Didn’t quite make it from Mechanicsville, VA to Bristol, VA to Cincinnati, OH. We are staying at a hotel in Lexington, KY. We’re tired. Precisely at midnight, we heard a very strange, loud noise coming from the back of our van. We could NOT figure it…
Comparing Apples to Apples
In many conversations I have with friends who would benefit from having a Mac but just don’t know it yet, one of the main counterpoints offered is that Macs are just much more expensive. This is just not true. Yes, the bottom line is greater, but that’s because you’re getting MORE. 🙂 So, for fun,…
Worship
We were part of a program this morning that was fairly unique. Jen and I were set up with microphones and folding card table chairs at the very back of a stage, hidden by a thick black curtain. We had no visual cues as to when to begin our musical portion of the program. Only…
