Done at last! done at last! Thank God Almighty, I'm done at last! She had a dream that I would finally decide that it was time to stain & seal the cabinets. It is now a reality.

These new black shutters were an excellent idea that my wife had. They were easy to put up and they look fantastic.

Oh Deer Deer Deer
This Boulder resident wants his home remodel to be finished. While others in town are "popping up", this Boulder native just wants to be able to cross the street again! This is right outside my building at work so I feel his pain.

New planter old one cracked
Not too bad if I do say so myself. Maybe I can ignore all the people that tell me to keep my day job. Oh, wait, that is when I attempt to sing or dance.

Welcome to my laboratory
I must admit that I do work with some pretty cool stuff. Doesn't this just scream "mad science"?

The steel tube of shame
1st day riding the bus. Kind of feels like sticking it to the man when f*****g gas is approaching $4/gal! Meanwhile in Saudi Arabia... only $0.45/gal! ;-)~

Grillmaster Nick
Kind of like when Punxsutawney Phil predicts the end of winter, Grillmaster Nick predicts the beginning of Summer. If he sees flames when he opens the lid, he declares that summer is here. ;-)~

The ladies club
Feelin' the heat. All day long and they haven't moved except to get a drink of water. ;-)~
Broomfield Senior Citizens
Here are two old folks sitting on the back porch enjoying the cloudless 72 degree day. Aren't they absoluteley adorable? ;-)~

SPRING!!!
FINALLY! We are due to get a healthy dose of Spring this week! I'm not sure if I can endure the roller coaster ride where nice-as-hell days are followed by snow flurries around coffee O'clock, followed by this. SPRING, BRING IT ON!!!! ;-)~

20 Years of love and laughter
Honestly, it seems like only yesterday that I kissed her for the first time. I was more nervous than I had ever been in my life. All I remember was being on top of the world when I stepped out of my car to get gas on the way home. The winter wind blew right through all 120 pounds of me as I thought…. "She is the one." I have never been the same since! My wife of 20 years, and best friend for almost 25, has given me all the missing puzzle pieces to make my life complete; her hand, her heart, and our three beautiful children. Her smile, laugh, voice, touch, and smell are what I hold dearest. Her willingness to put up with my shit is something which I am grateful for. Her kitchen-ness is flat out unbeatable (as I am no longer 120 pounds!) Did I mention her kiss? Nope that one's just for me:)
HAPPY 20th ANNIVERSARY BABE! I LOVE YOU!

The NailMaster 2
OK... Why I didn't buy one of these 20 years ago, I don't know! Do you have any idea how many finishing nails I have bent in my days? Well... not too many but every single one of them SUCKED! No more now that I have the NailMaster 2 :-)~

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
This year they were cranked out in less than 30 minutes. Kind of rushed i know, but I'll be damned if I don't have Jack-O-Lanterns out and my porch light on on Oct. 31 Eve! Even if it is just for the 7 or 8 rings-o-the-bell;-)~

My favorite time of day
I love coming home! Some see their house as just a box that they return to each night, I see mine as the treasure chest that holds all that is dear to me;-)~
My machine shop
This is where I build all the equipment that makes magic happen... well science actually;-)~

Getting Older....Myth or reality?
We have all always thought...."I'll never grow up!" Now I am already looking back over my short 40 years and saying, "I can't believe all the things I've accomplished, how much memory-filled road I left behind, and how much uncharted road I have in front of me." It is hard to believe that my oldest son is almost taller than me, my youngest son is almost stronger than me, and my only daughter is about to become smarter than me (academically that is, there will never be a substitute for plain ol' experience.) Well, I guess someday I'll grow up, but DAMN, I don't want it to be now! ;-)~

It's pronounced I..gor!
Well, another anniversary of sorts is today, Dec. 7. Yes, it is Pearl Harbor day, but it has also been 18 years since I started working for a mad scientist at NIST. Not quite a day that will live in infamy... but it is a day;-)~

22 years!
22 years ago today, the greatest treasure fell into my lap... well, actually she jumped into my arms! She makes me so happy that I think I actually stopped aging at that point (although my hairline would tell you differently);-)~So these flowers are for you Babe, I LOVE YOU!

Life
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:
If:A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
Then:H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
and K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But, A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
And, B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%
AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.
A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%
So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top;-)~
