  • Saturday 29 | Twentyy Three

    Another Rubio’s post (like I have anything else to talk about) 1986 In a related post I had said “A while back I discovered that the impersonal nature of being called by number wasn’t so bad, especially when dealing with Rubio’s Fresh Mexican Grill and their creative spelling techniques.” to which tommy replied “Next time [...]

  • Tuesday 25 | Toast, Chipp and Meredith

    1984 It’s been a while since my last Rubio’s post but a lot has happened. I figure if they can’t get my name right, I’ll try something a little more bold. And as promised I tried the very common name of Toast. Funny thing is, no one noticed. In fact they didn’t even question it. [...]

  • Saturday 22 | Photograph Site

    793 I mentioned earlier that Photo Julia was part of a photo website where each week they offer a theme (noun, verb or adjective). They have a new feature that allows you to embed a photobar of your most recent submissions. Below is the horizontal version and I’m currently experimenting with the vertical option on [...]

  • Tuesday 18 | CDF – CD Release

    Call Down Fire – CD Release Show – July 27th at ‘Canes “Call Down Fire’s experimental electronica-laden, indie-folk pop explores new areas of sound.

  • Tuesday 18 | Frustrations

    While dealing with some frustrations at work, my lovely wife (PhotoJulia) sent me an email to help me refocus my attention on God and I thought I should share what she sent. Here are some scriptures for you. I love you and I pray that God will take away those frustrations that are harboring in [...]

  • Monday 17 | I’m safe now in Jordan

    test/lebanon.jpgThis is a follow up email we received from Ann, one of the 3 Navigators in Lebanon. I’m safe now in Jordan. This last week has been surreal. It was the first time in my life I actually said, “God, you just saved my life.” We arrived in Beirut on the night of July 11th, [...]

  • Monday 10 | Four Pictures

    Michele asked “Without peeking, what hangs on the wall above your bed?” This is my answer (in order – left to right) But to be honest, I did peek because I could only remember three of them and couldn’t remember the order. These were all taken by my lovely wife, PhotoJulia. So what hangs on [...]

  • Sunday 9 | Pirates Disappoints

    I don’t have a lot of time right now but wanted to let you know that I saw Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest yesterday and I left feeling unsatisfied. Basically, there were so many sub-plots that there was no real main plot. The movie was all over the map (metaphorically speaking). My advice… [...]
