So yesterday I was lovingly taken to a Les Schwab by my friend Jim. We waited in line to finally buy chains for my saturn, which btw needs these special Quick Trak chains $360 for only 2.
I broke down and bought them, get home put them on and went driving in the snow around 7 last night. Everything was awesome, the chains are awesome (better be for that price right?). Next day I go to take the family to the hospital because the kids have fevers and on the way both chains fly off and one get crunched by some car. Totally pissed me off. That is like throwing $200 bucks out the window.
Once I found the chains, and sarah was finished running in the freeway to pickup the pieces, we kept on driving to the hospital but for some reason the Garmin gps we were using freaked out and took us to somewhere around The Waffle Window.
Again, so pissed.
We ended up just driving home. Me taking big deep breaths. Sarah, trying to calm down the kids. And out chains, sitting comfy in the truck.
All this to say, we are safe and sound. Loving each other even with the snow storms. This Christmas will definitely go down in the books as the Toughest Christmas Ever.
So it has been snowing for about 1.5 weeks straight. Making the planning for our candlelight service at new hope a complete disaster. Yes it was fun for a bit there but come on, 2ft of snow. Ge’ez who needs that. Here’s to working from home, and hopefully getting to fresno for christmas.
Just wanted to let you know what I have been doing.
I recently gave The Fold a face lift, go check it out and become part of the conversation.
I moved to Portland Oregon to work at New Hope as the Director of Weekend Experience and Communications.
I am working on a couple new songs for the band I am in, The Thomas Syndrome.
I will be porting article from Humandef.com over to here now, that should be fun.
I am currently taking design work, contact me if you need it.
That’s about it, hope you all are having a great time this December.
Got an idea to do a sweet little mini comic, so this is the first character of the series. Nothing really detailed but should get the point across.

Got inspired last night to make something that had a plant element fighting a wood element. Hope I got it. Feel free to download as a desktop.sizes here
Well by now you've seen the news that pros users of flickr can now upload 90sec videos to their account. Hot dog you say. "so I have to
pay 19 bones to upload video that I can put on youtube for free". Consequently, what I will be talking about has nothing to do with
lining flickr's pockets with lucious greenery, in fact most of you, if
involved in cfcc have a pro account.
With the F boys dropping video capabilities we find that the
possibilities for feedback on your marketing pieces just got a whole
lot more zippy. Given the parameter that flickr has of not being able
to upload more than 90sec you are really confined to getting the best
possible message out to your audience you can.
If you are a member of cfcc you'll see many videos now being posted for
critique and general amusement. Check out deviantmonk for some serious
eye candy.
The benefits are endless in allowing others to view your videos for church marketing, "like, OMG it's so cool". Not only do you get timely advise and sage wisdom from the likes if chadmaag and courtenay to name a few, you also endear people to your
cause to produce
amazing results in effectively reaching more people for Christ. Obviously if you have another service that works for you, by all means
use it but if that service is called godtube, I shall smite with my own
fist for your outright suckiness of using them.
