To blog or not to blog
It has been a while since I've journaled in this or my family journal. Maybe I should start up again. Not that many people would read this except the hijackers that think it is so freaking funny to put advertisments in the comments! Do they really think that someone is going to click through to "Viagra on the cheap" after they read what pearls of wisdom I have created. It's just a waste of their time. I can see junk e-mail, as annoying as it is, being somewhat productive, getting one hit for every million sent out, but hitting peoples blogs. Now, that is just stupid and mean.
If you are reading this it is July of 2008. Devin is 7 in 10 days, Brianna is 4 and I'm going to be 48. Liana and I will be married 9 year though it feels like 10. Actually, I can't tell you how great life is with her. I love being a kept husband.
I might do more of these, just wish I could type faster.
See ya in the funny pages.
