School Project











Noah has to do a school project with pictures of any of his family in the military which means his grandpa and me. Thought it would be fun to post the pics here as well. The ones of me are hokie, but it meant allot to have my dad pin on my Lieutenant bars at my commissioning ceremony. The photos of him are his profile and award pics as the 1st Special Forces Soldier of the Month Award.... and now you can see where Noah's headed.

Wanna Meet the REAL Jesus?

Think you know the real Jesus? Probably not. This is the Jesus I was taught to believe in... that's my problem.

For All You Bible Scholars


I really wish that my instructors at Calvary Baptist Christian Academy and Lyona Bible Church would have used Legos instead of the "flannel graph Jesus" to teach me the great stories of the Bible. Who knows, I may have had a stronger and deeper faith... I know I would have at least laughed my ass off in any case.


This link says it all....

Robbie Seay Band

It's been a while since I've blogged but between the job search, running errands, phone calls and averting nuclear disaster in southern Russia I've been a little distracted. It's easy to get caught up in the swirl until you realize you are the stunt double in "Flushed Away." Then you realize the further horror that "Flushed Away" is a cartoon with no need for stunt doubles, which either freaks you out or establishes the fact that it's not real.

In any case it's easy to overlook the deeper, more important things. That statement is so cliche, I know, but when I lose that perspective I start to feel I am not in touch with the world around me and my sensitivities and gratitude are down the drain. Then something comes along - a person, a news story, words in a book, a song - and it snaps you back.

This morning I slid in my burned copy (Ashley has my original as she has her "band-crush" going. I have "man-crushes" and she has "band crushes" - ya, we're a match) of The Robbie Seay Band's new album and it brought tears to my eyes. In fact, when we sing those songs during church I am thankful that the lights are low because I can never finish singing without getting choked up. It's fairly consistent and I'm not sure why this is. My best attempt at understanding my reaction is that the music can both be soulful and reflective and then build to hopeful and upbeat. Combine this with lyrics that aptly describe the hurt and fear I feel/have felt while offering the sincere picture of a loving God who is there to give joy and bounty to the poor.

Together these two factors poignantly remind me of how real my life is and how real a God in heaven is despite the circumstances that can carry me away from reality.

I Have A Job

I Gotta Job!!!
When people ask me what I do for a living I no longer have to reply that I have no job... and that I sit around watching Opra, read comic books and make new layouts for my MySpace page all day. I have a job here in Houston and I am very excited about the opportunity. For reasons, I can't announce who it's with just yet, but it's on the higher end of the housing market (which is the strongest part of the market now). I'll be working as a Sales Manager again and have wide parameters to operate under - which will be weird after my Lennar hell.

Thanks everyone for you prayers and support. If there is anything I can do for anyone let me know.

Ok, on the flip side my cousin Jeremy was let go along with a number of other good people by my former company Lennar (aka Gaynar). This was no suprise as the company announced to Wall Street that is was 44% below projections and would be laying off more people. We are working to find him and the others jobs so those of you in Houston, if you hear anything let me know.
