I’ll admit, it was always on my mind, albeit in the back of my mind, way back. But it existed. Would there be an earthquake in the LA area while I lived there. Back in ’96 and ’97 when I used to visit Mindy in LA taking Friday afternoon flights out and Sunday redeyes back, [...]

Choosing a real estate agent

So we’re about three weeks away from listing our house, waiting until Evan’s about a month old before we have people trampling through our digs. Seems everyone knows someone, which is good but somewhat chaotic. Had about five referrals from neighborhood and willing to give anyone a shot at ‘interviewing’ for this position.
There are a [...]

Someone said something to me the other day….going from having one kid to two is like going from one kid to ten. I think I know what they meant now. With one, you have your spouse there to help if you want to say…go do something – shopping, go to the gym, run an errand. [...]
Happy Birthday Mindy Sue!

July 22nd. Only missed by four days. Probably anything I get her for her birthday will pale incomparison, but I’ll try anyway. There’s no way this girl looks her age. Mature though beyond her years, she’s a great person, an awesome employee/manager and Disney asset, a great friend, motivator, inspiration, a great wife and mostly, [...]

At 9:24pm, we were blessed with a wonderful baby boy! Seriously, words cannot express the joy and amazing feeling of having a child and seeing your new born being brought into this world. The birth itself was uneventful and fortunately very easy, to the point of Mindy stating about 2 minutes after childbirth that she’s [...]

3:13pm – Mindy didn’t feel all the great last night…lots of contractions and little sleep. Opted to head to the baby factory and sure enough…she was admitted and told, today (or tonight) is the day. Been here since 10am and it’s 3pm now…lots of fun….hurrying up and waiting. Updates forthcoming, of course.
6:05pm – Still waiting [...]
The ASG – Rivera’s entrance and Fox’s greed!!! McCarver’s an idiot (ok, geez, there’s news).

So there was so much hype this week over the All-Star Game and the war of words which possibly started out as innocent fodder with Jonathan Papelbon wanting to close out the mid-summer classic and his words being construed as cause for a lynching in NY as he thought he should close over the great [...]
MLB Homerun Hitting Contest – Josh Hamilton….one word…wow
Posted in Uncategorized on July 14, 2008 | 1 Comment »
This is a former number one overall draft pick, a guy that wound up out of baseball for nearly three years, Josh Hamilton. A guy that had all the potential in the world, to only have it taken away from him by drugs. I’m sitting here watching one of the most memorable hitting displays in [...]
Bobby Murcer’s passing

The 2008 baseball All-Star game is being held on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium. I grew up in that stadium having gone to 10-15 games annually there between ages 8 and 15. As the years go on, you’re bound to lose some of your favorites, but one guy I really learned to appreciate was Bobby Murcer. This [...]

Again, we’ve still not had the time to select an agent, but also are going to wait until about 2-3 weeks after the baby is born to formally list. Should you be at all serious or know someone that is interested, by all means, let me know. I’ve put together a quick geocities site – [...]
