Blog Odyssey Vol 1.1

This is an account of my weekly excursions into the blogosphere and beyond.

My wife listens to imogen heap so I have heard of her before but I had no idea that she was so talented. However I was reading a post at LA LA LA and soon realized just how talented she is. LA LA LA found an amazing video of imogen heap mixing a song as she sings it. It was crazy I honestly have never seen anybody do that before.

If you don't know already my favorite baseball team is the LA Angels and on Tuesday they played a great game beating the Yankees by a score of 9-18. But Garrett Anderson a veteran of the team had a a career night going 4-6 with 2 home runs, one of them being a Grand Slam. On another note A-Rod has hit his 40th, 41st, and 42nd home runs of the year on us in the last two games. He is going to have the home run record and hopefully he will be on the Angels when he gets it.

Hurricane Dean has been cruising the Caribbean and making everybody remember New Orleans. Most Americans would want to get the hell out of Deans way, but not Kendra from Island Med Student. She is staying put and facing the storm head on. Will She Survive?

Not only did she survive she had a Hurricane Dean Party and made a movie of the party and the Hurricane.

Into The Heat

We took are semi annual family trip to Laughlin NV last week, we had a great time and took lots of great pictures.

My wife and Ava chilling out in the 115 degree heat. Her whole family was there with boats and jet skis. To get to our spot on the river (actually Lake Mead) we had to all load up in the boats, there was around 50 people so it took several trips.

I took my daughter on her first ever Jet Ski ride

She didn't last long before wanting to return

We stayed at the Tropicana Express which was newly remodeled. There was a train there so we of course took a train ride

We waited for over an hour for the train to arrive

Ava with her camera

Bang!

I'm not sure how my wife and I did not hear a car slamming into both of ours, but we didn't.

The honda was pushed into the truck

Hey dad somebody hit mommys car

Daddy mommys car died

They hit the cars so hard that is ended up on the side walk and pushed doem the street about three yards

Getting *&*^* from both ends

There is a good reason why I have not posted in a month and a half. I have not done anything since graduation except work and hang out with the family. I decided that I would not start posting again until about a week before I started school, but something happened that I felt was post worthy. We had both of our cars parked on the street in front of our house late on monday night. We watched some movies and went to bed. The next moring the cops were knocking on the door. They asked us what happened to our cars. We of course had no clue that anything had happened during the night. We slowly realized what had happened, somebody hit us late in the night. They slammed into the honda and pushed into the truck and pushed both cars about nine feet donw the street. Then they left the scene bafore they could get caught. The Honda is totalled and thetruck needs some front end work. The worst thing about this is that we had a $1000 deductable for each car so it is going to cost us 2K

The honda before its death RIP 2002-2007

The truck before is was brutally beatin

We hope to fill the void with this
