The Dancing Outlaw Page

Oh man. You got to see this everybody! Above is the link. Watch the video. It is awesome.

Yesterday was Mom and Dads 50'th wedding aniversary. The weather was nice. We got to see a lot of old friends and family we hadn't seen in years. I'm posting the pictures I took on my Flikr account. L8r, Mark

Guess who got a paper published?

Our Son, Chris just got a paper published on the O'Reilly networks web site. That's a pretty big accomplishment for an underclassman. Above is the link. As you could immagine, were pretty proud of him.

Andy, David, and Their Babies

Andy, David and Belle welcome the newest additions to their family. Welcome to Lacey (soon to be renamed) and Hope (Snow). What a tremendous day for us all!
 

Lacy and Hope

Well our new family members arrived from Salt Lake City. I just wanted to do a quick post and get the pictures up. Lacy is on the left, she is Andy's new baby and Hope is Davids. We are real excited for them both!

Toys!

Here are some new toys I have ordered. Firstly, I'm replacing my old "Happy Hacker" with a new one. If you look closely you will notice it has arrow keys! That's the only thing I missed on my old one. These keyboards are Unix keyboards and have a small footprint. They also have the best feeling keys of any keyboard I have ever typed on. Plus no dang annoying Windows key. Because remember, "Windows Sucks". I can't wait to get it!

Secondly, yesterday I bought us a big old HP kick ass photo printer from J&R. $240.00 retail. Black Friday price, $69.00. I just couldn't pass it up. ;-)

Last but not least, my new MP3 player. All I can say is "WOW". It sounds awesome. 2 gig flash, 20 hour rechargable battery. Small, lightweight, plays MP3's, WMA's, Oggs, Jpg images and Mp4 video. Works as a UMS device so just plug, drag and drop. So far I have owned an iPod, Sony, iRiver and a Sansa and I got to say that this U3 "eats their lunch". I highly recommend this device. *****

More to come, Mark

David and Andy

This is David and Andy, Erica and Bell's parents. They are so cool. They love Chihuahuas as much as we do and this week has been real hard on them too. We are so lucky to have the great friends that we have and we give God all the glory for them.
