Shopping To The Maxx

Sunday, November 27th, 2005

Sign number 235 that my wife shops at TJ Maxx too much: she got a Thanksgiving card from them.
I’m not lying. She got a hand-addressed Thanksgiving card.
I’m in serious trouble.

Christmas season hits the Slusher household. Emily, Jonathan and Marilyn did an excellent job decorating this year’s tree.
I was feeling a bit under the weather, so after putting the tree together and making a couple of pathetic passes at decorating it, [...]

Emily’s Young Face

Emily

Well, we got a reply back from the modelling agency in Atlanta and they said that we lived too far out of their area.
I reckon there must be a lot of procrastinating photographers who don’t know that they are going to do [...]

Irony Defined

Friday, November 25th, 2005

I have often seen debates as to the use of the word “irony” and to what it actually means. I personally think that this is what defines it. Any time you use the word in the future, it should meet that standard.

Happy Thanksgiving

Thursday, November 24th, 2005

Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.
I’m working nights and my wife and kids are out of town, so it has a bit of an anti-climactic feel to it. That and this being my first week of work in 2 months, I’m already wiped out.
But all in all, I’m a person who has much to [...]

Can’t Run, Can’t Hide

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005

If I could, I would. I’m not ready to go back to work. 3 or 4 more years, maybe, but not today.
Sigh.

Sony

Monday, November 21st, 2005

I probably don’t need to pile onto the “I hate Sony” bandwagon. I haven’t bought a cd from a RIAA label in years. I probably buy between 1 to 2 cds a month now and I have no need to go to a retailer to obtain the cds that I want. So [...]

Cutting Edge

Monday, November 21st, 2005

Just to prove how cutting edge I am (not that you good people need any reassurance), but I recently played the song Chicago from Fall Out Boy on one of my podcasts. This morning I see their video playing on TV.
I was cool before cool was cool.

You Win

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

Fine. I surrender. You win. I give up. Since everything I post about ends back up on the subject of my beautiful kids, let’s talk about them.
They are gorgeous. In anticipation of all the “they must take after their mother” jokes, they both actually favor me a fair bit. That [...]

Rocketboom Comments

Thursday, November 17th, 2005

I have been a faithful Rocketboom watcher since my brother first introduced me to it. It is a videoblog or vlog or whatever-the-kids-call-it. It talks about a variety of different topics and is more entertaining than most things I see on TV.
That having been said, stay away from the comments. Good lord, [...]
