I thought I'd throw a little blog your way before I head off on vacation for the rest of the year.

So here's a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from your buddy Paul Black.

Let's start with a little Christmas pie chart:

If you're looking for the perfect gift for the holiday season, don't look for this lamp from Walmart:

Not available on line.....Not sold in stores.  Sorry. (*no, really. Look it up for yourself*)

They may be small. They may be cute. They come from Heaven above.

Don't mess with Angels:

Have a great Christmas and a happy new year! I'll get back to more regular blogs in the 2009!

Happy Halloween!

Here's an Iron Man costume as seen by my mother:

I love you mom!! (*I don't think she gets it*)

Here's a inside look at me taking my kids trick-r-treating later tonight...

My sister is leaving! She's leaving me!

Today is Darci's last day. I don't know what I'm gonna do?!

Darci is the whole reason I do my job as well as I do; she's my memory, my date book, my reminder, she's got my back (and I her's), and she's my friend. I will miss her.

From 5am until 9am weekday mornings, Darci and I are ONE. One mind, one thought process; we work together better than any one producer could ever hope to....

She's the annoying sister I've never had. We know things about each other we'd probably rather NOT know.....trust me.

I'm of mixed emotions: I'm happy she's leaving (better hours/more time with kids, etc.). I'm sad she's leaving. I'm mad she's leaving. I'm jealous. I'm sad. I'm worried. I'm excited. I'm sad. I feel lost. I have a very weird feeling deep in my gut I can't quite put my finger on.....

I will miss you. I hope you find "easy" in all you do.

Bye.

How would the presidential race change if kids ages 6 and up could vote, too? We'd see some different compaign ads:

Kids love dinosaurs:

Harry Potter is still popular, right?

McCain isn't Batman, but he could be:

Now with gumball eyes!

McCain. He's got your nose.

...and this one just might tip the election completely...

Thanks to the folks at cracked.com. (*kids in carpool alert*)

Another week. Another blog. If you must waste time surfing the internet, make this blog one of your weekly stops. I waste tons of time surfing the internet right clicking all over the place to bring you the good stuff w/o the popups and porn ads and spam emails and chain emails.

Here's a first for my little blog. I'm gonna bust the iPod wide open. Apple, we now know your secret:

It's been a tough summer. Here's my summer by tally marks on my car:

"Clean and refreshes with out soap or water" Really?

Whatever your job is, be happy. You might feel like you've got your head up an elephant's ass....but....
