Asher Pics are on the move...

Asher pictures now have their very own Flickr page! I've done this because I am tagging them now and I don’t want to get the Asher tags mixed up with my family/personal tags. So--bottom line--much better.

To learn more about the whole tagging thing, go to:

Or, you can just head on over to the new flickr page:

Four things...

Four things...

SUBJECT: FOUR THINGS

*Four things about me that you may or may not have
known in no particular order. The directions are at the end.

A) Four jobs I have had in my life:..:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

  1. Building ramps at the trailer shop (which begat my second club after IHMRB… BAW—Brad against welding).
  2. Iron worker at the trailer shop (used a big mean machine called a "Piranha" to cut up metal. Kind of fun… for a while).
  3. Whatever I was at the SPOT (manager, concession stand clerk, janitor…).
  4. Accounts Manager / Sales at Holt Flooring. Yes, that's right—I've never had a job that my boss' last name wasn't Holt.


B) Four movies I would watch over and over (or have watched over and over)

  1. Back to the Future
  2. Back to the Future Part II
  3. Back to the Future Part III
  4. I don't have a fourth… but if there is ever a Part IV it shall appear here.


C) Four places I have lived

  1. Asher
  2. ..:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Ada
  3. Somewhere else in Ada
  4. Somewhere else in Ada

D) Four TV shows I watch

  1. Lost
  2. Friday Night Lights
  3. Bones
  4. Chuck

E) Four places I have been:

  1. Kissimmee, FL
  2. Myrtle Beach, SC
  3. Denver, CO
  4. San Antonio, TX

F) People who e-mail me (regularly):

  1. People willing to enhance my "phallus."
  2. People wanting to save me big money on my meds.
  3. People sharing hot stock tips (load up on GHMD!)
  4. People offering to show me things they probably shouldn't be showing.

G) Four of my favorite foods:

  1. Carrots (however, whenever)
  2. Chicken
  3. Apple pie
  4. Steak (a GOOD steak)

H) Where I would rather be right now:

  1. Outside, since I'm sure it's still nice (why aren't I?)
  2. A really nice hotel (I like hotels)
  3. A cruise (sure, I'll jump on board with everyone else)
  4. One of those really cool jumbo jets I keep getting emails about.

I) Four friends I think will respond:

  1. Nora perhaps?
  2. I don't think anyone else will. Prove me wrong!


J) Things I am looking forward to this year:

  1. Hopefully going to Washington DC this fall!!! I'm very excited.
  2. Spring
  3. My brother's wedding (never been in a wedding before)
  4. Christmas (I know, I know… but I like it!)

Now, here's what you're supposed to do... and
please do not spoil the fun.

Hit forward, delete my answers and type in your own. Send it to your
friends INCLUDING the person who sent it to you.

The theory is that you will learn a lot of
little-known facts about those who know you.
Remember to send it back to the person who sent it to you.

Just thought this was funny...

The Onion

Mattress Store Experiments With Non-Blowout Sale

RICHMOND, VA—Customers were assured they would get a pretty good deal on a brand-name mattress. Not an out-of-this-world, unheard-of deal. But pretty good.

Christmas Day 2007

Ahh, it was to be such a simple, stress-free day. We we're going to spend Christmas Day at my house. Open up a few presents and then go out and eat lunch. One minor issue--- nothing in Ada is open on Christmas Day! I called every restaurant (and then every quick stop that serves pizza) and nothing was open. So, we improvised and, courtesy D&W, rounded up enough supplies to have hamburgers and chips (as anyone who knows me knows I keep no food in the house). Mom made some tasty monkey bread and we had a pretty good time. But, I guess we'll know better next year. We had a beautiful snow the next day... just hours late of a Christmas snow!

I've posted the Christmas 2007 pictures because I'm fast... like a cat. I'll probably have some more to add later from other people. If anyone needs a printed copy of one or more, let me know.
