Happy 3rd Birthday Avery!

Today is Avery's birthday. She has truned three and this is a very exciting day for her. She has opened most of her gifts this morning. Now she is playing with Mr. Potatohead, markers and her doctors kit.

With the older kids, I always thought they would like the more expensive items so much more than the everyday items. Well, as I continue to learn, I firmly beleive that the crayons and paper are as good if not better than almost any other gift.

Last Christmas Avery received this talking book. She has played with it maybe twice. It just doesn't keep her attention. However the door painted with chalkboard paint and a stick of chalk keeps her attention for hours.

I am moving to Blogger (blogspot). I am going to stop copying items to Xanga, because there are some features built into Blogger that I just like better. Some of the things I like are the Audioblog capability, the email blog capability, the blogshare tracking, and the audience is mostly adult. The customizations are better and the entire blog can be written in HTML. For the novice blog writer and computer user, this makes life harder. But I feel that I am ready to move on.

For all of you on Xanga reading this, thank you for reading. If you want to continue to track me, I will be posting at http://n8ivwarrior.blogspot.com. Please continue to track my wife, QueenSuchandSuch as she will continue to post here.

My Rare Political Statement...Illegal Immigrants

This is a long post. However, it addresses BOTH sides of the immigration issue. The actual bill as it was received in the Senate from the House. http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=109_cong_bills&docid=f:h4437rfs.txt.pdf In a nutshell, here is what the bill provides (ref: Wikipedia ): · Requires up to 700 miles (1100 km) of fence along the US-Mexican border at points with the highest number of immigrant deaths. (House Amendment 648, authored by Duncan Hunter ) · Requires the federal government to take custody of illegal aliens detained by local authorities. This would end the practice of "catch and release", where federal officials sometimes instruct local law enforcement to release detained illegal aliens because resources to prosecute them are not available. It also reimburses local agencies in the 29 counties along the border for costs related to detaining illegal aliens. (Section 607) ·

What is it About Shoes?

I just have to know. What is it about shoes? I own five pairs of shoes and I can tell you where they are located at any given point in time. Each of them has a purpose. I have a black pair of tie-up shoes used for work and only work. In fact, they stay in my locker at work. The second pair of shoes are basically a backup for the first pair. They are slip on Dexter loafers in black and brown. Multifunctional and works with nearly every outfit. Third are my Nike Air Monarchs. I use these for nearly everything casual including my daily trip to work. After arriving at work, I put on the shoes mentioned first. Next are the mowing sneakers. They are plain white New Balance and were the predecessor to the Monarchs. I use them when I am mowing. They are green. Lastly are my bowling shoes. Dexter bowling shoes. They cannot be worn outside of a bowling alley, so they stay in my bowling bag (lately without any usage at all). This brings me to my point (as I almost always have one). Why in the wor

Moving on and moving out

I have made an executive decision in my life today. MomofJenMatt is right about a very sensitive issue and I have been running it through my mind for most of the night. I am strongly against the support of child pornography and to be honest, Xanga could be considered as contributing to the distribution of child pornography. Therefore, this is my last post with Xanga. I am moving to http://www.blogger.com/ . Blogger.com is tied to/owned by Google. It is a little more complicated to use, but I figure I will get used to it. This is my new blog site: http://n8ivwarrior.blogspot.com/ I welcome you to join me, although anyone can read and comment on my blog. You do not need to be a member. I hereby resign the Viewer's Choice to LarsThunder. Thank you for viewing and good luck to you all.
