Carving of 2006
Trevor loves techno. Adam has no need for a mask. Crystals pumpkin has a mood swing. I have a knife covered in...... powdered sugar.
We decided to carve pumpkins this year. There weren't enough of us to have a contest so there wasn't too much competition in the air. Crystal missed some the the festivities cause she had to work. The only part she missed was the bloody steaks but that was fine because she is a vegetarian. We tossed around the idea of scaring her when she came to the door but quickly changed our minds when we realized she might injure someone in the process.
There seems to be a tradition forming at holidays. That being to partake in the craziest holiday soda ever made. Last year, I am pretty sure I had a brussels sprout soda at thanksgiving. The halloween sodas were not as healthy as the brussels sprout drink....Candy corn and some sort of cider. Not too bad.
Adam took the time to make a halloween CD for the occasion. It has all kinds of nuggets on it and I am sure our neighbors loved listening to hours of horror tunes all night.
Come carve with us next year.

Blue Ridge Nights
I went on a vacation. We visited the exotic location of Blue Ridge, Georgia. The list of things to do there goes on and on.
1. Float down the river
2.Shop at the biggest store there..Roses. If you dont know what a Roses is you have lucked out.
3. Rock on a porch hours at a time. This is actually easy to do believe it or not.
4. Go to the Drive In.
Thats right there is a working Drive In located in the Blue Ridge. It is the best thing ever. You get two movies for 5.50 cents and the biggest funnel cake you have ever seen for 4.00 dollars. Thats correct two movies under ten dollars.
If anyone is interested in starting one up with me....I'm in. One stipulation, we have to show a classic movie once a month and serve something on a stick.

FIREFLIGHT @ the HiNGE
Fireflight At The HINGE
What is there to do on a tuesday night in Cape Coral? Other than Bingo and shuffleboard, why not a rock show. Sure I may be getting a little too old for that sort of thing but I need to enjoy it while I can, right?
Oh, did I mention it was Christian Rock. Yeah, some of you are asking yourselves now, "Do Christians rock?"
KeLLYeah!
Bad Camera=Bad sound (+)Enormous Passion (+)Heavy Riffs=Rockin Christians.

Look at all the Walkers
Look at all the Walkers
A day at the goodwill looking for nuggets.I have been known to frequent a couple thrift stores here and there. This day was no different. Give me a Waylon Jennings song and I am good to go. I did see Johnny Cash in this Goodwill! He was just to elusive for me to get him on camera. ..
Molotov Cocktail Anyone?
Molotov Cocktail Anyone?
Fourth of Julys are the best. This day wouldn't be complete without good food, good fireworks, good friends, and a couple of bad Molotov Cocktails.Am I going to bore you with footage of beautiful fireworks? Nay, I am going to bore you with my life. Just know that there are talks of planning a tsunami, a scene reminiscent of a meth lab, and some explosions put to some kick butt music! "Turn it up", she says in her best sweet home alabama voice which is actually pretty good thanks to BonnieGene, Scarlett, and Crystal. Have I sold it yet? Watch it!
Things I learned:
A)Buy sparklers that light
2)Don't give all your gasoline away an hour earlier to a grease monkey of a man who comes to the door with a cig in one hand and a gas can in another. Even if he claims to have run out of gas just up the road. Just don't do it.
D) Pork does not make a good Molotov Cocktail. Use something like gunpowder or bullets.
I'll Have a Moldy Christmas Without You
I'll Have a Moldy Christmas Without You
This is just a clip from this past Christmas. Every year Adam and I are living in a different state. It is what we do. One thing remains constant. No matter where we are at Christmas there will always be "ghetto" lights adorning our dwelling place. Adam likes to refer to them as "ghetto"...well...because he is from Dalton, GA. If there is anything you should know about Dalton, they take their Christmas lights seriously. Every home is perfect. Icicle lights everywhere...candles glowing in EVERY window....green wreaths with red bows hanging from EVERY window...and at least four christmas trees inside the house so when someone looks through any window a tree will be spotted. No joke. So when it comes time to wrap our sad, pathetic, lights around a little fence it is only natural that they become "ghetto". No matter though. Another year..another display of ghettoness. Bah!
No Turkish Delight For You
No Turkish Delight For You
Despite how ANGRY I was during the movie The Lion the Witch and the WArdrobe, I loved it. But this story has always held a special place in my heart. It set the stage for my first "in front of the class performance". My fifth grade teacher Mrs. Fellars made us read the story and then to pick out a scene to reinact. I picked when all the children go through the wardrobe. I brought all these coats to class and let it rip. One of my fondest memories.
The Golden Snitch
The Golden Snitch
This is 30 seconds of sheer BRILLIANCE. Actually beyond brilliance. The only thing that would have made it BLOODY brilliant is if I had done it in a British accent. Crap.
Eddie's Way for the Harry Potter Wristband
Eddie's Way for the Harry Potter Wristband
This is my life.....For those of you who are interested. You must be really interested or love me a whole bunch to watch that stuff.
That was a trip back from the Mall. Trev and Crystal bought this cool wall medallion. The only thing was it was gargantuate. You see the boys got the front seat. Figure that out. The artwork has yet to make it to the wall. Probably because it is gargantuate. And yes Crystal and I were wearing matching Harry Potter wristbands. So what. I still sleep with a bear....So what. I have a golden snitch on my car antenna...So what.
Horror in the Blue Ridge
Horror in the Blueridge
Just got back from a vacation in North Georgia. We did a little camping, a little hiking, a little Bojangles eatin, a little campfire cookin, a little bit of everything. The video blog below shows how much I shouldn't be watching horror movies. Don't like them too much but I watch them. Most of the time against my will(thanks to TAW). So naturaly when I go out into the woods I am expecting to find a body or parts of a body when Adam expects to find deer tracks and markings on trees. All I can think about is horror when I am in the wilderness. This fact is proven when I decide to carry an axe for protection. Who does that? So I have set up the stage for what you are about to see. The scariest night of my life partly because I scared my self into it.
