Kellen and Adam, getting ready to rock out at the Jimmy Eat World/Taking Back Sunday concert. Kellen is a bit of an insane driver and I love that. Here we are on our way up to the show that we got the free tickets to thanks to Zach Lind, drummer for Jimmy Eat World…keep reading [...]
My freshman year at Whitworth, we had this CRAZY guy on our hall who was a close friend to all of us. Ryan Keberle. An absolutely amazing trombonist, and he took off to the Manhattan School of Music. Well, I knew he was damn good so I just typed in Ryan Keberle and found him, [...]
I’m sitting here in Andrew and Kristina’s apartment with Katie. We’re babysitting their son Evan while they are out for the night. Andrew is a good husband. In fact, he’s a much better husband than I think I could ever be. Why you might ask? Well, the man is out with his wife, taking her [...]
Last weekend I was at a family camp for a progressive/liberal PCUSA church out of Boise. I had a wonderful time with the pastor, the youth and the people from their congregation. They did some wonderful self-reflection exercises that weekend, looking at their lives from a Jungian psychological perspective. Before the sessions where I left [...]
Yesterday my mom, sister and I decided to get tickets for Rent, as it was playing at the Paramount in Seattle. So we met my dad up in Olympia, sprung the news on him, and spent the day shopping. I’m very excited to get to sleep in my new bed next week at Princeton, with [...]

They made all the videos and played their music, while Brian McLaren read along some readings about the “story” (Creation, Crisis, Calling, Conversation, etc…). It was absolutely gorgeous - they had a great turn out, [...]
I don’t know why I did it. It was my monthly CD-buying venture into Target. I couldn’t find any $6-$10 CDs that I wanted - and then I saw her. She was wooing me in a way, and I immediately thought, “Damn. Now *that* would be a funny blog entry. Adam buys a Britney CD.” [...]
I spent last evening at the Knotty Pine in Victor, Idaho watching Molly do her show. It was wonderful. She opened for San Francisco band Hot Buttered Rum.
Easter, the joyous season, the season of bunnies, and colored-eggs, and resurrections…and…PowerPoint shows. So here’s the deal. I put one together for Easter last year, and as far as PowerPoints go, I was pretty pleased with how it all turned out (images, narration, music, etc). I used some different stuff, but we played the song [...]
