Uh-huh, yeah! That’s what I’m talking about, check-out the trailer!
Has it become evident to anyone yet that I love super heroes?

I received a package in the mail tonight from the fine folks at the b5media corporate offices in the great white north, Canada. Finally got my b5media hat and jacket and I must say these are some fine threads. The jacket is really nice and warm and waterproof.
This past week was my 1-year anniversary with becoming a part of the b5media blogging network. I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it, being a part of the b5 community has been one of the best things that’s ever happened to me. It’s pressing me to read more, write more and understand more. I deeply value and appreciate the friends and contacts I’ve made through the network and can’t wait for some amazing things to happen in 2007.
If you’ve never stopped by one of my b5media blogs, please drop on by one of the links below and read a little bit and let me know what you think.
We were just together for Christmas and my dad said nothing of this venture of his. Pretty impressive given his history as a preacher for small churches since I was in fourth grade. However, you’d have thought this would have been mentioned at some point around the dinner table.
Fort Wayne developer Bill Bean has decided against buying a 40-year-old downtown hotel and converting it into apartments, condos, office and retail, saying the cost to do so would be too high, reports The News-Sentinel . Bean, who owns or partially owns more than 2 million square feet of commercial and industrial buildings in Fort Wayne, last month said he was working on a plan to convert the 208-room Holiday Inn. Bean’s change in plans came despite the state’s offer of up to $3 million in tax credits.
Maybe it’s my oldest brother instead, his book business seems to be doing really well, maybe he’s expanded. Or, it could be someone completely non-related.
I’ve been waiting to blog about this thing now for a few weeks. This is the car I drove back from Cookeville, TN earlier this month. It’s an anniversary/Christmas present from my mother-in-law to my father-in-law. It’s a 1970 Chevelle SS with a 454 engine. It’s been immaculately restored.
The interesting part of the story is that this car is identical to the one he had purchased new in 1970 and was driving when they first started dating and were married.
You can see more photos of this great car on my flickr account.
I received these humorous little stories of how sometimes your mouth just speaks a split second before your brain catches up with it. Many times leading to embarassing memories for some and hysterical ones for others. Most of them are a little sexual in nature, but as we know, those vocal miscues are many times the funniest.
I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls. I was unhappy with the women’s type I had been using. After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the good- looking gentlemen who works at the store. He asked if he could help me. Without thinking, I looked at him and said, “I think I like playing with men’s balls.”
My sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold a variety of candy and nuts. As we were looking at the display case, the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help. I replied, “No, I’m just looking at your nuts.” My sister started to laugh hysterically, the boy grinned, and I turned beet-red and walked away. To this day, my sister has never let me forget.
Have you ever asked your child a question too many times? My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch in between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room. While enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I checked my seven-month-old daughter, and she was clean. Then I realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a while, so I asked him if he needed to go, and he said, “No.” I kept thinking, “Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I don’t have any clothes with me.” Then I said, “Danny, are you SURE you didn’t have an accident?” “No,” he replied. I just KNEW that he must have had an accident, because the smell was getting worse. Soooooo, I asked one more time, “Danny, did you have an accident?” This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over and spread his cheeks and yelled. “SEE MOM, IT’S JUST FARTS!!” While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing, he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down. An old couple made me feel better by thanking me for the best laugh they’d ever had!
This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a very embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future, likely think before she speaks. What happens when you predict snow but don’t get any? A true story. We had a female news anchor who, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn’t, turned to the weatherman and asked: “So Bob, where’s that 8 inches you promised me last night?” Not only did HE have to leave the set, but half the crew did too!
While on a flight from New York , the Stewardess was busy passing out peanuts and cokes to everyone. There were about sixteen flights lined up waiting to get clearance to take off. Then the other Stewardess got a message from the Pilot that the tower said the wind had changed 180 degrees and they were first in line to take off, and to have everyone buckle up. Without thinking she just announced “Please buckle up, grab your drinks and hold your nuts, we’re taking off!” No one saw her for the rest of the flight to Houston, and all the other Stewardesses were laughing all the way and so were half of the passengers.
