Recent conversation with Brenda:

Brenda: Does the sunset look strange to you? It looks like the sun is in front of the poles we're passing. What would cause that?

me: Uhhh...refraction? Light bending around objects, maybe.

Brenda: No, it's not that. It's probably more like I'm seeing an after-image on my retinas. I don't know.

me: You don't know but you're sure I'm wrong.

Brenda: Yeah.

me: So you don't have a single clue as to what is causing this phenomenon but you can be certain of one thing - I'm wrong.

Brenda: Now you've got it.

I just came back from a Daddy/Daughter event at Lauren's school. It was a PTA sponsored Bingo night. Lauren and I spent two hours playing Bingo laughing in frustration about coming so close to winning and just hugging and sharing a good time. Go »

My Child Bride

I've mentioned my wife, Brenda in numerous posts. Thought it was about time to introduce (at least her picture) her to my on-line friends. This is also the only picture to which she consented. Go »

Dumb Criminals And Other Court Type Stuff Part 3

Another small collection of weird legal matters. Yeah research, that's the ticket; Too manly for the ladies' room; Chi-tonw blues; Cat's got yer what?; and finally, I have no idea what it's like to be busted for DUI, taken for mugshots wearing a shirt displaying my love for midget sex, and then being forever haunted by that image surfacing on the internet, but I know who to ask.
