New Video & Scattershooting

-How famous are you (u2) when people are excited about your new album cover? Not the music, mind you-that won't be available until March- just the sleeve that holds the CD.

-How nerdy am I to be excited to see the said album cover?

-No School for the Kid's today, so they celebrated by waking up a full hour before they would normally in order to watch cartoons.

-Emery has started taking weekly spelling tests, and has 27 pages of math homework due this week.....in kindergarten.

-We were watching the Obama slobberfe...er...Concert last night. Bruce Springsteen sang "This Land Is Your Land". Asher somehow knew it was a Woody Guthrie song, and gave V and I a brief lesson on the life of the folk singer. How does he know about Woody Guthrie? He cliams he "picked it up in the 2nd grade".

-Asher later stated that Bruce was trying to sound like Bob Dylan. I'd love this kid even if I didn't have too.

-The...Cardinals...In...the...Super...Bowl. Right. Still can't get my head wrapped around that one.

-We are approx 85% unpacked now. 15% is still in the spare garage. Which begs the question; Why did we move that 15%?

-My new Car is a Saturn Astra. Which is a European car named The Opel Astra, repackaged for the US. The Opel was featured in a car chase scene in the movie Vantage Point, that Vanessa and I watched this weekend. I am sooooo going to drive down sidwalks and stairs...

-I didn't vote for the guy, but the history that will be made tomorrow is exciting. I'll being praying for him; anything less is a sin and rather unpatriotic. Which aren't one in the same, by the way.

Mom and Dad sent Asher a vinager and baking soda fueled Rocket for Christmas. Here is the video of the flight attempts.


How long did I work on getting the music for Space Oddity and the video to match just right? Too long.

Have a great week!
