WHERE THE HEART LIES ... Johnson, Hyten, Golden & Bullis

That rocks, Kyle. Does the Touch have a camera built in too? If so, snap a pic and upload it here dude!

Ah, sadly no camera on this beautiful piece of technology. Lovin' the wifi, though. Also got Call of Duty 4 for the ol' 360. Lot's of fun, dyuuudes.

How was David's Christmas??
 
Kyle, we had a great time with David on Christmas. As a 12-year old, he was the ONLY one of us capable of sitting through National Treasure 2 without retching multiple times. Tim and I eventually found it so bad as to be amusing, fortunately. We hung out and played 360 games and ate stuff not good for us the rest of the day. Call of Duty 4 is the sh*t indeed.

I'm at the San Jose airport getting ready to fly back to the midwest (and your cold weather). I will call your dad tonight to discuss set lists for New Years Eve and I'll check in with you by the weekend to figure out when I'll roll in there. In fact, send me a PM with the addresses I need as well as all phone numbers so I can print them out and figure out just how much of a hump the drive is going to be from e-wood.
 
you got it man. Glad to hear you got a chance to play Call of Duty 4, I got it as a gift myself. Its unbelievable. - Informational PM on its way.

Yea, COD 4 is amazing. Best FPS I've played in regards to the missions. I played almost non-stop the past two days, finally beat it. That sniper mission is nuts...so much fun...but multiplayer king is still Halo 3 :)
 
Kyle, I sent a PM for you to pass on to your dad.

I ended up walking off without my iPhone at the friggin' San Diego airport during a stopover so I'm without a phone at the moment. I suppose the odds are slim that someone will return it as I've already checked with lost and found. Sigh.

Let me take this opportunity to share a funny story my brother in law just told me. You see, one of his friends from South Africa came over to work at a drafting firm in Kansas City and there was a bit of cultural adjustment. He was given a young female assistant who was trying to help him get adjusted but it was a bit of a struggle. One afternoon she came in and asked if there was anything she could do to help out and he said, "well, you can go get me some rubbers." Apparently "rubbers" was the term they used for erasers in Capetown. The young thing said, "I'm sorry, but I'm not comfortable doing that" and he replied, "my last secretary always brought me rubbers". It took awhile to sort out things and avoid accusations of harassment.

Mark man. What were you thinking!?! Yeah, chances are pretty good that someone snagged the iphone and will use it with their own service plan. That freakin blows man. Actually, if you have Location turned on then you might be able to have the local police locate the phone and you could pick it up. Although, I'm not certain that the iphone even HAS Location??

Just a thought.

Anyway, I hope the snowy and brisk weather is treating you well. Eat a lot of oranges and drink water so you don't get a cold. -- But hey, you know that... you were a local yourself at one time.

I love dvxuser and I love Jack Stanley.

Jack, why don't you join Mark and I as we bring in the new year in Lincoln, Nebraska? Surely you are already used to the cold weather...

Mark, I can now relate to you posting posts from the airport and on the road. I spend 15 hours today between flying and sitting in a terminal waiting for a plane. I was supposed to have 3 flights with 2 stop overs. The first one from Orlando to Dallas was on time, but the flight from Dallas to Las Vegas (don't ask me why they didn't fly from Dallas straight to LAX... I have no clue) had mechanical troubles, so I had to reschedule minutes before I had to get on the new flight. Flew from Dallas to St Louis, had a 2 hour delay from the flight from St Louis to LA...

I wound up getting home at 10:45 pm and just walked in the door... all very well worth it though. I haven't seen my parents in about a year...

Can you believe the airport in St Louis makes you PAY to use their wireless connection? 8 bucks a day...

Hey Tommy, the travel b.s. is indeed a pain these days. I've also found that its about 50-50 getting free wireless at airports these days. Twice in the past month I've been at airports that had "free" wireless servers but you couldn't get past the server to the net. I suspect they set these up and pretty much ignore them so that tech support is hit and miss. I keep a T-mobile account because I travel so much and at least I know I can get on the net at any Starbucks or Kinkos.

I can't wait to get back to L.A. .... I just snapped these pics from my parents' front room:
