The primary purpose of reason is to help us discover what is true. The primary tool of reason is argument. An argument is a specific kind of thing. Think of it like a simple house, Read More
But you could’ve run it faster than that, right?
Evan T—after hearing my Half Marathon time
Here are a few shots from the race.
This first picture shows how dense the roads were. With over 30,000 runners, the roads really didn’t clear up the entire time.
I did it! I survived and finished the Country Music Half Marathon. It was an exhilarating experience that was definitely worth the effort. I’ve been training for this 13.1 mile race every since I set the goal back in January.
Here are a few of the details of what it took to cross the finish line.
That’s about it. For those of you I couldn’t talk into running the race with me, that’s what you missed out on—plus the experience.
My official race time was 1 hour, 53 minutes, and 39 seconds.
Search Me—You’ll know it when you see it. Visually search the web like browsing through your iTunes library.
Well it looks like someone actually likes the simplicity of my site’s design enough to try it out for themselves. Although I don’t plan to release this design as a theme, I don’t mind sharing what I’ve done. Edwin was even nice enough to contribute to a new book I bought today, Boundaries. Thanks Edwin, and enjoy the new look!
My wife officially launched her blog today!
She jumped ahead of at least three other people waiting on me to help them set up their blogs and managed to talk me into designing her site with a scrapbooking look. She did most of the work and created all the scrapbook images.
Be sure to visit Baby Steps, and let her know what you think of the site. You can also subscribe once you’re there to keep up with the latest Baby Steps she’s taking.
Spent the weekend playing Monopoly with the family.
This is so much more fun than the old version—probably because you can spend money so much faster!
Once again, our sushi chef held nothing back in preparing a wonderful assortment of sushi for the evening.
He even surprised us with a sea urchin (the raw quail egg and sea urchin held in a cucumber on the left side of the plate). This is supposed to increase your manhood, but I wasn’t able to keep it down—great treat nonetheless.
Maybe next time…
Just out running 11 miles—only 4 weeks away from the big race!
Take 5 minutes and be amazed at by some of the creatures of the ocean.
My favorite is the very last scene with an octopus blending into the environment.
Appreciating God even more than before.

The lilies we received at the hospital are still blooming and look great.
Jesus Painting done in 10 minutes by my dad several years ago.
The original size is at least 5 x 8 feet.
mydeco let’s you plan out your room with incredible details and options. They’ll even pay you if someone buys a product in your room design.
From the room dimensions, actual furniture, paint colors, floor surfaces and more, you can virtually create or redesign your room in just a few minutes. This looks much better than the FloorPlanner that I used to use.
Just logged 100 miles for the year—the last three of those miles came in at 8:18/mile.
Just enjoying my wife’s homemade strawberry cupcake.
It tastes as good as it looks!
In case you missed the Lunar Eclipse last night…
Taken in the freezing cold from right outside our front door.
Several years ago I was in a band during high school called Watermill, and just the other day I came across a CD with some of the songs we used to play.
Here’s the acoustic version of our popular song, “You Don’t Know.” I’ll try to post a few other songs from the CD in the future. They’re actually not too bad!
Image resizing is so much cooler than it used to be. Here’s the original video I saw a while back using the smart resizing technology.

I’ve been looking for a tool like this for a long time. Now I can make pretty intense changes to my photos with FotoFlexer even if I’m away from Photoshop. The feature I love the most is the “Smart Resizing” tool. Check out how you can resize your images.
These are a few shots of me testing out the tool. The man on the beach needs to go! Just select what you want to remove (you can even select what you want to keep), and begin resizing.
I just registered for the Country Music Half Marathon. Prompted by the fear and rumor that the 22,500 participant limit was already full, I went ahead and signed up today! I officially have to run the half now.
I started training January 7, and I’ve already run just over 75 total miles. My farthest run was this last Saturday totaling 6.5 miles. That’s half of the total distance I’ll have to run on race day.
Check out this little website we threw together for my brother’s engagement and wedding.
