Pizza with the Solis Crew

We went to the largest pizza place I’ve ever seen. Imagine, Chuckee cheese times 4. Really. There was a small rollercoaster and bumper cars in the place! Here’s Ben with sporting his Justin Beiber hair and our niece Hannah, who won’t stop growing! We had a great time.

The annual trip to San Jose, California

Enjoying the company of Sacramento folks in San Jose. Each year I try and make a trek to my original home-group of friends in San Jose. When I lived in Sacramento, it was fairly easy. Get in the car, drive 2+ hours, tah-dah. But, it’s a little harder now that I’m in Texas.

But here’s a group of folks that made the trip with me. And, I love them for it.

Birds Falling from the Sky?

I think we learned nothing as of this writing (February 8, 2011). So I still don’t know why the birds just fell. The government assures us they did not do any poisoning. So, it’s a mystery. Maybe it’s related to the Mayan calendar?

Someone REALLY Likes his Chewys

So, we got these little rawhides that are shaped like candy canes. And, as long as I give Ganso these, it’s less likely that he’ll chew.. his bed, the curtains.. shoes, socks, anything that gets in his way

It’s That Time of Year Again

Here’s an oldie, that I posted back in 2005 but it’s time to remind ourselves why some of us don’t put money in the kettles in front of the store.

The Salvation Army is a church. They are also a huge employer in most cities receive municipal tax payer support. As a tax payer supported entity they are required to adhere to laws related to equal opportunity in hiring and services. As a church they are not.

In cities, such as San Francisco, and others across the nation, they have reiterated their freedom as a religious organization and refused to hire Gay and Lesbians. You cannot be queer and work for this church.

While I’ll be the first to admit that they do many good works, there are many other organizations who also work hard to lift up others without discrimination. I encourage you to find one of these organizations and support them. Put your dollars where they help most, and hurt least.

Thank you and Merry Christmas.
