Jo wanted to paddle here newly painted boat. I wanted to paddle mine too, but I promised Danelle she would be the first one to paddle the boat with me. So I met Jo at Simpson with our Kayak.

We went to Kansas City for Easter. This weekend would be a treat for everybody but Danelle… We celebrated mom’s birthday and helped her blow out her candles on her cake. During this whole time, Herman and his friends were frantically working on putting his Mustang back together. He got a new engine and has … Continue reading “Easter KC – 4/3/2015”
No, this isn’t some advertised sale where there is only 1 item at a ludicrous price to get your attention. This is about a legitimate tire blowout on my unicycle. Unlike a blowout on anything else, when a blowout happens on a unicycle, the wheel stops moving and you wreck or a UPD (Unplanned Dismount). … Continue reading “Unicycle Blowout – 3/29/2015”
I’ve been unicycling since 2006. For some reason, I started doing it more this year and ended up with another unicycle. I brought it into the office and one of my co-workers, Dan Pavel, learned to ride over the course of a few weeks. Dan ended up purchasing his own, here are two more people, … Continue reading “Office Unicycle – 3/24/2015”

My current employer wanted to make a promotion video. We took two days out of work to film around the office. The project had started as a hand help iPhone video and moved to a full production. It turns out that iPhones are great, but not the quality that we were looking for. Lucky for … Continue reading “Office Video – 3/17/2015”
Danelle needed some quite time in the office to study for school. I decided the best way to achieve that was to take the kids out to a park. I had not been to Cliff Cave park in quite some time and decided that would be our best choice. It didn’t take long for us … Continue reading “Cliff Cave – 3/15/2015”
Being in St. Louis, it won’t come as a shock to anybody that there are several St. Louis Cardinal baseball fans in the office. One in particular, Kris, was in for a shock when he came back from vacation. While he was out of the office, I decorated his office with Chicago Cubs (their arch-rival) … Continue reading “Cubs Prank – 3/14/2015”
