Caption Contest
Tuesday, May 24th, 2005Over at Rudy’s blog. Enter to win Starbucks coffee. Rudy took the picture with his Treo phone, emailed it to his Powerbook, then wi-fi’d the picture to his blog, all in about 3 minutes. Technology these days is sick.

SEXY prom nights

Wow
Tuesday, May 24th, 2005What a week. California was great (more on that later), but yesterday was a huge faith builder for my son and me. Because of my trip to CA, we nearly missed the Carrasco visit to New York this weekend, but they extended their stay an extra two days so Judah was able to meet Samuel [...]
