We'll start this one off with a cute picture of baby Kenny. He is a little over four months old right now. I hope that all of you had a happy Thursday. There is only one day left until the weekend, and only about two weeks left until Spring Break. Yay! Spring Bre

Really good article. It is fun to guess the class name from the profession that you listed. Try a technical college. You could be: a hooper, a cobbler, or a shoe shine technician.
I work at a public school. There are Apples all over the place. What a pain-in-the-ass to use them if you're not familiar with all of the particulars. Those i-books seem to have been designed by Satan himself. I have PCs in my own personal office. Thank goodness.
Thanks for sharing... I suppose.
Just in case you're wondering, here are the odds that I made last week: Preliminary unofficial American Idol 3 Line: for information and amusement purposes only Fantasia 3:1 (super-talented) Amy 6:1 (super cool) Diana 10:1 (cute. has a gimmick) Camile 50:1 (too shy) Jasmine 20:1 (pretty) George 50:1 (Fan-favorite, but limited. Better than Rickey Smith.) Jon Peter 25:1(Would be
Hey there friends. The show has just finished. I will take a few minutes to write this here blog, and then do my nightly turn on the "Dance Dance Revolution" game. -I skipped a day yesterday. Had a meeting after work... Tonight's results show was fun. In the group song, we could really notice that women outnumber men in this year's competition by 2:1. That should be good news for the guys who will be able to grab more of the "I have a cr
Hey there friends. I hope that you've all had a happy day. My wife and I have just finished watching the twelve "Idol" finalists in the first elimination round. Tonight's theme was "soul music." After the first two songs I was worried that I wouldn't be able to recognize any of the songs during the evening, but fortunately the contestants started singing songs that I know. Once the "trife
It is hard to say whether McLean was better than Richard. Before Richard's ego got hold of him, he was the star of the show. He was (arguably) the reason why people watched the Match Game (at least the ladies.) McLean was definitely better than Richard in his "pouty" days. He was probably always funnier, but didn't quite have the sex-appeal.
As a kid, I remember that I liked McLean Stevenson when he sat in the "Richard" spot. They don't play episodes with him on it very often. Bill Daley is also good down there too. Used to have a crush on Fannie Flagg. It wasn't until recently that I appreciated Betty White. She was good. I also liked that lady who played Murray's wife on Mary Tyler Moore (I forgot her name.)
Over the past few days I have seen campaign ads for both Kerry and Bush. Up to this point I have been underwhelmed. All of the ads for both parties rate pretty high on an imagery scale, but really low on substance. Maybe this phase of the campaign is more about -alleged- principles than about solutions to issues. I suppose that the buzz-words in the image-laden campaign ads play well with focus groups. Advertising professionals are probabl
Hey there friends. I hope that you've had a happy weekend. As usual, it seems to have passed by so quickly. Our lazy Sunday is winding-down. After sleeping in, I had a happy day spending time with my wife and the baby. I was also able to watch Day 1 of the Grand Sumo Tournament in Osaka. Last night, some friends came over to our house for dinner. We had steaks, played Dance Dance Revolution, and we sang karaoke. We also were able to see
Hello friends. I love blogging on JoeUser. I enjoy seeing "hits" and "comments" go up whenever I write a compelling article. For about as long as I have been using JoeUser, my blog has been in the top-ten. I really like being in the top-ten. Being there means that a lot of people who wouldn't normally read my articles can read them. With the ranking however, comes responsibility. If I want to maintain a top-ten ranking I
Hi there friends! It is finally Friday. I am looking forward to a weekend surrounded by family and friends. Last night my wife and I took the baby along for dinner at Bonanza in Saint Cloud. Success! We had a good meal, and the service was good (as usual.) We both had steak and all-you-can-eat shrimp. The last time we went there (in December,) our meals didn't turn out so-well. I was a bit apprehensive before going back, but fortun
As I was looking at my e-mail this afternoon, I saw that MSN was featuring an article on William Hung. (Mr. Hung is that funny Chinese guy who sang "She Bangs" at his "American Idol" audition.) Since his Idol appearance, William has done the talk show circuit, and has made an album, and a music video. He is quickly becoming sort of a pop-culture phenomenon. He is really using the Chee
If you had read my last blog entry, you know that I wasn't able to see the show. American Idol has been bumped back to midnight in the Twin Cities because of the (inconsequential) High School Hockey Tournament. So if you want to read some good "griping," scroll down friends. Even though I haven't watched the show, I will still attempt a rudimentary review of the results. According to internet sources: Jon Peter Lewis was the fans' choice.
There must have been something wrong with her that the judges didn't like during rehearsals. She wasn't THAT great. I was a bit disappointed that she didn't make it through, but I am not going to lose any sleep over it.
I like to watch American Idol. I write about each episode on my weblog. Tonight's show (the wild card round results show) is being pre-empted in the Twin Cities market because of the Boys' High School Hockey Tournament. How many players are there on a hockey team? 20? Assuming that each of these 20 players have two parents, two teams worth of players amount to 80 people who actually c
Last night as I was driving home from work, I heard an interesting commercial on the radio. The commercial was done by a cable company advertising that Viacom channels have been pulled from our local satellite service. Apparently the cable industry sees this as an opportunity to regain new customers. This "conflict" intrigued me. Arriving home, I switched on the local CBS affiliate. Ins
I made it to the end of your article. That was an accomplishment because I usually don't read articles that aren't broken up into paragraphs. It is too hard to read like that on a computer screen. Fortunately for you, your topic was interesting. Good blog.
Sometimes I would like to comment on more blogs. I browse around to read a few of them. Some of the blogs may be worthy of comment, but are too hard to read. I get bored by the time I get to the point of some of the blogs that are written by athors who consider themselves "eloquent." Long paragraphs, long sentences, stuff like that. Booo-oring! Brad W is one of the few frequent contributers to this weblog who is able to
Hi there friends. I hope that you've had a happy Tuesday. Here at my house, we've just finished watching the American Idol wild-card show. It was really fun to watch. Here is the show as I saw it: The first segment: Four contestants were eliminated. The four who were eliminated never had a chance to perform on the show. How disappointing for them. I thought that this segment was really harsh for the cont
"dont be such a prick bulboushead." Now, is that something Jesus would say? In the book of Ferdinand, chapter 9, verse 18 And the lord Jesus came down from the hill where had been doing his heavenly business. His follower
The other day I was cleaning out my dryer. It was my observance of lint.
I liked Clinton. Too bad he couldn't get elected for a third term. As far as Bush goes: we weren't expecting anything from him anyway, were we? At least he's not snorting coke anymore.
Today at work (I work in an elementary school) one of my third-grade students began to eat a Tootsie Roll Pop. As he unwrapped the sucker, one of his classmates asked him whether he has an Indian on the wrapper. From there, the conversation progressed to what one needs on the wrapper to "win." Eventually it was agreed that the Indian should be shooting his bow at a star. I wasn't listening to the conversation long enough to understand wha
