Palin pays me a visit

I opened door last night and lo and behold Palin was staring at me. Actually it was my wife tormenting me because I JOKINGLY told her that if she ever divorced me I was going to give Palin a call. Touche honey.


what? where's the bowl?

I play a little game with the kids when I am making any food for them. I take the food or utensils required to make the meal and stack them on my head. Then I ask the kids where I put them. When they point to my head I look all around and pretend not to know. Its great fun!

Here's a little midnight art for you, Alfred Hitchcock style.

all work and no play makes you a nerd

One more from work. All work and no play makes you a nerd. That's why I play at work.


just because

I took this picture today. I just thought it was really cool -


train time vs. intercom fun vs. fictional non injury train derailments

Train time in the basement today. Oldest brother is at school, so we got out the old choo choo tracks and started building.


We had a slight track issue, brother was attempting to fix it quite violently.


Getting very frustrated with the tracks not going the way he'd like.

Little girl feet.




Every thing is going fine, all arrivals and departures on time.


"Sir, excuse me sir? Sir, could you come over here sir?"

(Excerpt from the movie Spaceballs)


My daughter deciding she'd had enough of my intercom schenanigans.


Now its her turn! Such a little perfect princess.


In the land of Sodor (the fictional location of Thomas the Train), there are train accidents all the time and after each one they say "Luckily no one was hurt". WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO ONE WAS HURT? THOMAS CRASHES THROUGH A CHOCOLATE FACTORY AND NOT ONE PERSON WAS HURT? WHAT!? DO ALL THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY EMPLOYEES HAVE A SPIDEY SENSE THAT TOLD THEM TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY OF THEIR IMPENDING DOOM?!!
Maybe it went something like this.... "HEY I JUST HAD AN INKLING THAT A TRAIN IS GOING TO BUST THROUGH THAT WALL ANY SECOND, I THINK I WILL GO TO THE VENDING MACHINE..."
Remember, abosolutely no on was hurt in this video. I repeat, NO ONE. They must have a very tight lipped PR lady on the Island of Sodor.
