bfw

that's the technical acronym for the tool that my beloved is holding. or, as some call it, "big frickin' wrench"

actually it's the wrench that my father-in-law brought over to help fix my plumbing.

he pulled it out of his trunk and my jaw dropped.

"jeez!" i exclaimed, "did a lady of the lake bequeath that to you or was it simply forged in mordor?"

dancing in the dark (continent)

a coworker showed me a map of swaziland recently.


is it just me or does it resemble bruce springsteen in profile?

gyar!

monica and stacy were out shopping when my dear wife posed for this picture and text messaged it to me.

my response: "finally a mask to match your morning breath!"

you may be of appalachian descent

if you purchase this low-quality dried beef by-product.

brand new puppy!

his name is stanley.

he's a one-year-old jack russell terrier mix.

we picked him up from the humane society.

we had to rename him because his former moniker happened to be the same as mine.

we didn't want to disturb the neighbors when they heard someone yell, "noah! stop licking monica!"

veronica and lily seemed to like him.

girls will be girls

monica's best friend, stacy, came to visit us this week.

we went to the book store.

i was enjoying a book about logos.

what did the girls immediately locked onto?

a book of nude art photos.

so mature. ;-)

murphy: year one

kim gave us these pix and vids of murphy.

he was the most awesomest ever.

murphy: 2001 - 2008

what a bad day.

our dog died two days ago. he ran under a car while trying to bite the tires.

monica was almost inconsolable.

he was the best dog.

we're gonna miss him.
