Take a 2 liter bottle (or a smaller one if your dog is smaller, but this is a good size) and tear off the label. Remove and throw away the cap. Show a few dog treats to your dog, then throw them inside the container (while he’s watching). Give the container to dog and let Read More
The youth group at our church is doing a 24-hour fast for hunger today. It’s been pretty easy for me to do it (especially since I often forget to eat anyway). But, I have to question how much this has done spiritually for me. I’m sure a longer fast would be better and I may Read More
Well, I now have an officially developed fear of bridges. I cringe every time I drive under one. I have no problem going over them. Just under them. Actually, I have a fear of going under anything that contains a lot of metal and concrete. See, it all started with my addiction to AM radio. Read More

Well, I have another artist that I would officially like to add to my favorites list. Her name is Hung Liu. She was born in China in 1948 and, due to some bad situations going on at the time, was parted from her father (whom she did not see again until 1994). Anyway, her story Read More

I was reasearching some stuff about Lyme’s Disease. I got it my senior year of high school and was in extreme pain. (I use it as a measure of other kinds of pains. For example…”Hey Steph, how much does that cut on your arm hurt?” Steph responds while shrugging, “It’s not as bad as Lyme’s Read More
So, Neal came to visit us this past weekend. (To all of you who have not scrounged up the cash to visit us: You Suck.). Anyway, when Josh was working on Monday, Neal and I took a drive across the Golden Gate to Muir Woods. It’s a park that has tons of really huge, old Read More
I feel disturbed. You see, I sent this e-mail to Josh the other day, asking him if he’d like to have lunch with me because “I’d really love to see you today. ;-)” I didn’t get why Josh didnt respond, so I called him and he came to Hyde and had lunch with me. Turns Read More
