We recently learned that our fourth child due this July is a BOY! (I have three girls already) We were able to decide on the name Holton (don't tell him that's what's on the bell of my tuba) but my wife wants to spell it "Holten." I like the spelling with an "o" for obvious reasons, but she reminds me that she's the one filling out the birth certificate :)

Updated you have been!

Which spelling would you vote for? This might be a biased crowd, so she probably won't accept my polling data...

Holton. I'm completely(snicker) unbiased. I don't own a Holton.

Not quite as impressive as the 'grill shots' that Bearphonium posts but today was a great day to toss on a few burgers on the thirty-five-year-old grill. Yeah... that's a Leinenkugel 'vanilla porter' left from Christmas!

YES! At 260 pounds I don't need the extra bread. But... I AM a meatetarian!

Well... I could have said one was for the dog. But.... I don't have a dog!

It is currently snowing with reports that it will be turning to rain.

I will not be taking skis to the rehearsal today.

That is all.

I'm just waiting until the tides rise. It never snows under the ocean...

Someone spent their time performing this research. Apparently, it is quite uncomfortable to be stung by a bee on the penis.

If I ever create a new email address for myself, I'm going to come up with the easiest one to say over the phone. I've had it with conversations like "did you say M or N? D? or B?" I need to research and see which letters are the most easily understandable over the phone.

An excellent point! This might exceed the standard for this thread.

The senior minister at our church, who is tone deaf and musically illiterate has begun making musical decisions for the music staff. This should be fun! NOT!
