President's Day...

First time I've sat down at the keyboard today, so not much to write about. President's Day blahs, I suppose; I had get out to run some errands and it's a fairly nice day, just a bit windy.

Saturday was fairly eventful; I had to coach my daughter's soccer team (umm, they need to update this page) due to unforeseen circumstances. And no thanks to my coaching, we won. The girls played well on a COLD and WINDY morning. So far 2-0 for this Spring season with two shut-outs. Well played, girls!

Here's something to get you going. Texas politics is changing because of Barack Obama's candidacy for president. It's an interesting article. Can't say right now I'll support Mr. Obama for president, but he certainly made me a fan when he spoke at the 2004 Democratic convention. I'm not even sure why I was watching, but I'm glad I was. This will be an interesting election.

Here's another little tidbit: XM and Sirius to merge... Since I installed my iPod in my truck, I have had no need for the XM subscription, so I canceled it. I enjoyed it, but still it didn't make sense to continue to pay for that service. So now the two services will merge to create only one. Don't know if that's good or bad... generally competition is good for business, but in this case it seems it hindered both. We will see...

This has always been a holiday favorite...

Dale Hansen's "Thank God For Kids"

I love my kids and I love my wife for giving them to me... You can only hope you've taught them well and they turn out OK... and you can always love them, unconditionally.
