ITEC Conference 2009

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:30:00 -0000

As those of you who follow me on Facebook may have seen, I was at a conference early this week in Coralville, Iowa. ITEC stands for Iowa Technology & Education Connection. This conference was about technology as it pertains to education in Iowa schools. Right up my alley!

Yeah, it's been a while but I want to try and give this thing a go again. However, this time I have a plan.

I have uploaded a TON of new pictures to my site. I have a whole lot more to come, but this is a start! You can find them by clicking the nice little "Pictures" button over there on the left. Enjoy!

Welcome Back!

Yeah, yeah I know. It's been a while. I have an excuse though! I had some troubles with my web host and I ran out of space to upload any more pictures or other files. If you are reading this then you are seeing the site on my new web host. I have unlimited space now so I should have plenty of room! I'll get my pictures up and ready to go so I can continue my posts about DragonCon.

Dragon*Con 2008 - Day 0

Mon, 08 Sep 2008 23:16:50 -0000

Wow, what a trip. Tricia and I had been looking forward to Dragon*Con for a VERY long time. We had no idea what to expect, and I’d say it was everything I could have hoped for and so much more!

I’m going to start the story of our first Dragon*Con on what I’m going to call “Day Zero”. This is for all the time we spent before leaving getting packed and ready to go. It will also go into our adventures on the road trip to Atlanta. The plan was to leave Thursday afternoon and head east through Iowa. We would stop off in Des Moines to visit our friend Dave and pick up a couple details Tricia needed for her TIE helmet. After that, it would be off to West Branch, IA to pick up Chris Andrews, aka CAndyman. The three of us would then make the long haul all the way down to Atlanta, GA.

Returning from Dragon*Con 2008

Fri, 05 Sep 2008 19:46:41 -0000

Well, I'm sorry for the lack of posts lately. However, to make up for it, I have a whole series of blog posts that are going up soon. These blog post will document our trip to our first ever Dragon*Con in Atlanta, GA!

So much happened over the weekend I'm going to break it down day by day. I do have all the pictures uploaded from our camera and CAndyman's photos. They are completely unsorted, unlabled, and thrown into a big pile. They can be found here. However, if you want to wait, I also have an album for the "Best Of" D*C 2008 where I'm going to put all the good ones. Once I have that sorted out I'll post that link too. So, watch this space for lots of Dragon*Con 2008 goodness!

ITS ALMOST HERE!!!!

Led Zeppelin - Hey Hey What Can I Do

Wanna tell you `bout the girl I love
My, she looks so fine
She`s the only one that I been dreamin` of
Maybe someday she will be all mine
I wanna tell her that I love her so
An` thrill her with my every touch
I need to tell her she`s the only one I really love

I got a woman wanna ball all day
I got a woman she won`t be true, no
I got a woman stay drunk all the time
I said I got a little woman and she won`t be true

Sunday morning when we go down to church
See the menfolk standin` in line
Who say they come to pray to the Lord
With my little girl, looks so fine
In the evening when the sun is sinkin` low
Everybody`s with the one they love
I walk the town, keep a-searchin` all around
Lookin` for my street corner girl

I got a woman wanna ball all day
I got a woman she won`t be true, no no
I got a woman stay drunk all the time
I said I got a little woman and she won`t be true

An` in the bars, with the men who play guitars
Singin`, drinkin` and rememberin` the times
My little lover does a midnight shift
She`s followed around all the time
I guess there`s just one thing a-left for me to do
Gonna pack my bags and move on my way
`Cause I got a worried mind, sharin` what I thought was mine
Gonna leave her where the guitars play

I`ve got a woman, she won`t be true, no no
I got a woman wanna ball all day, yeah yeah, now now
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I got a little woman and she won`t be true

Hey, hey what can I do
I said she wont be true no
Yeah-no, yeah-no,
Whoa ohh, what can I say
Yeah-no, yeah-no, ahhhhh

Hey, hey what can I do, ahhhh
Keep ballin`, keep ballin`,
Keep ballin`, keep ballin`,
Keep ballin`, keep ballin`,
Keep ballin`, whoa ohh
What can I say, ahhhh
She wanna ball

Hey, hey what can I do
A-keep ballin`, keep ballin`
Keep ballin`, keep ballin`
Keep ballin` yeah, yeah
Whoa ohh,what can I say
A-boogie, a-boogie chillin`
A-boogie, a-boogie chillin`

Hey, hey what can I do
Hah yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah, ah yeah
Whoa ohh, what can I say
Hey, hey what can I do
I got a woman, she won`t be true

Hey, hey what can I do
Ah whoa whoa whoa hear what I say
I got a woman, wanna ball all day
Whoa ohh what can I say
Keep ballin`, keep ballin`

Whoa oh oh oh oh
Hey, hey what can I do
Oohhhhh

It's Here!

At long last, my wait is FINALLY over! My new helmet has arrived! Marvel at it's beauty!

Admire it's craftsmanship!

Gaze upon it's wondrous accuracy!

I have a few pics up so far here with more to come. Since I took these pictures, I have added the aerators to the front and put the screen in behind the teeth that are cut out. I also want to get some side by side pics of this one next to my old one. I'll let you know when those are added, but for now, enjoy!
