- Thanks to Emery for the new WAM banner. I asked her why she wrote McKibbens in lieu of the more traditional "McKibben". She said "because there are 4 of us in the picture, not just one". Hard to argue with logic like that. Also note that in the pic, Em is taller than Asher. I suspect that was on purpose.
- I'm spending 3 days this week in LA for a Managment Training Conference. I have a bad attitude about it. I need to drastically improve that attitude.
- This video is wrong on soooo many levels.
- I want one of those KJV Chains though...
- We spent all day Saturday at the beach. Although the water was much too cold to swim (it's never really warm, like the Gulf), the kids had a blast. "Doing what?", you ask? Digging a hole. They, along with several other kids who'd never met, spent 4 hours digging a 3 foot deep by 4 foot wide hole in the sand. Amazing in this day and age of computers, countless cable channels, WII, PS3 and the like, that a hole commanded such attention. They don't realize it, but it just guaranteed us not getting any sort of gaming systems. For a few years at least...
- Did I mention I dread the Management Conference?
- I'm down right giddy about the new U2 album. I like Coldplay, I like Radiohead. In fact, other than U2, they are about the only bands I'd walk across the street to see (Unless the Smiths have a reunion). But I don't wait in anticipation for their next releases. I downloaded the album art a month ago. A U2 song was played at my wedding (It wasn't "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" smarty..), I'm a full blown nerd. Luckily, I'm not alone. Brant at Kamp Krusty wrote a piece summing it up pretty well.
- This is getting kind of embarrassing for other kids at Asher's school. Last week he got an award for being a good citizen (A pencil..). Friday he won the Academic Achievement award for the last Trimester. This time, he got free nuggets at Chick-fil-a, so much better than a pencil. Yep, it's hard to be Humble when you're McKibben, but we try.
- I've made some snarly comments lately about V not knitting me anything. I would like to offer this correction. Vanessa has knitted me a scarf and a sock. Not an entire pair of socks mind you, just a sock. But still, it's something.

- I got no less than 6 posts lined up in the Draft folder, so get ready.
