A great site to reference those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom in the war on Iraq. This is a Calendar of US Military Dead during Iraqi War and continues to be updated as long as our men and women in uniform continue to serve there.

If you are a US citizen, it is the least you can do to go there and pay your respect to these great men and women!

Leslie and I really have enjoyed this show. It is called House Rules and we stumbled upon it one Saturday morning catching the first week of the show. This show is about 3 couples who are each given a house and 13 weeks to remodel it (by themselves). Each week, they are pitted against each other in a contest to see how much money they are given to complete that week's project. TBS House Rules, Leslie is rooting for the older couple (Bill & Cindy) and I am voting for the middle couple (Joey & Rebecca), neither one of us is rooting (nor did we vote for) the youngest couple who got married right before the show started. The youngest couple (Adam & Katie) never won a single competition and neither one of them had a clue. It is not too late to watch the show, on Friday December 19, they are having a final show (after the voting) to tell the world who wins the house + $50,000!!

Go Joey & Rebecca!!

By the way, finally got pictures on the Internet of my youngest taking first place. We did not get a lot of high quality pictures, but Leslie did get some great quicktime movies (on accident) though! Anyway, here you can see the links to the pictures from each of the events he has been in and done a terrific job, to date, 2 first place and 1 second place trophies in 3 competitions!!! What an awsome little boy we have!!! Riley's pictures from shows.

Checking out some new blog skins and I think I found one that I like! BlogSkins.com You can actually go right to the website http://www.blogskins.com.

This is far & away one of the coolest sites on the Internet, not to mention it has saved me tons of time when my site's have had problems. I looked for it for hours when a person told me they wanted to reconstruct a site they had given up on 18 months earlier!! It is Internet Archive: Wayback Machine and will search your main site based on changes from your main page! Check it out and let me know what you think!

Just to give you a little teaser, here is PDRMA (my employer's) website in 1997 and even better, a picture of me from that website here is the picture and here is the website my, how far we have come! Hope you got a good laugh out of that, now it is time to see your favorite website and how it looked when the archive first started to collect its' information!!

Time for me to finally order a good dumbbell for Casey and pick one up for Riley while I am at it. First I have to find out what size they would be, that will require a phone call I think(?). Painted Wood One-Piece Competition Dumbbell: J and J Dog Supplies, this place is really big on Obedience training supplies.

Just watching Average Joe.

Well, my little boy did it again!! He won first place at his Novice graduation, just as he did in his beginner graduation!!

So lets see, that is 2 first places and 1 second place in 3 competitions for this little guy!! Will point to the pictures soon!

Really screwed up (ugly too) woman. She decided to kill here daughter to protect her daughter's honor when her sons raped the daughter. Bad situation I know but still, the lady is just a little messed up!! The Seattle Times: Nation & World: Mother kills raped daughter to restore 'honor'. I read this and thought, how can this lady have not killed herself after killing her daughter. Anyway, got some betters stuff to post later!
