So I've now figured out how to post on here with pictures from my cell phone. I'll finally be able to have photographic evidence on here to corroborate my stories of dancing monkey women, 45 year old kendo experts and the like. That being said, as you can see I've now seen the last Star Wars movie, which made up for the other two movies.
Now that there's no more Star Wars, I guess it's time to start cranking out babies and try to catch up with the litter that Robby currently has (2, with another on the way at last count).
The Sox were down 0-3 and they came back, so anything's possible.

FINALLY!
As you may have noticed, I've finally decided to start updating the site again. It's been a pretty busy year so far, what with buying a house, filling up the house, decorating the house, keeping the house clean, having people visit the house, painting the house... you get the picture.
We've also been really busy this year, both good and bad busy. Most recently we've been busy attending my brother Todd's graduation, as well as attending screenings of Star Wars Episode 3 in Austin's new digital theater, as well as at the Alamo Drafthouse. This Wednesday at the Alamo they'll be showing Steve Martin's The Jerk, and serving free pizza in a cup. Hopefully I can talk Ronda into going :)
I've figured out how to take pictures and post to this blog using my cell phone, so expect much more frequent posts on the fly as Ronda and I come across interesting things.
So check out all the new posts below. I've also fixed the Letters from a Honkey archive so you can see all of my old miserable stories from way back when this site began, and for those that have emailed me to ask: Yes, the Louis Farrakahn African Name Generator will be coming back, as soon as I have time to create a new "Hall of the Stuped". Which won't be long, as there is plenty of stupid to link to these days.
As far as Star Wars Episode 3 goes (since everybody is asking me), I thought that it was just freaking incredible. It was great to meet some of the people in line again (Martha, Nathan, Chris and Amanda), and pretty fun seeing Nathan in what is and shall forever be known as the best Episode 3 Anakin Skywalker costume ever.
The movie was amazing, 9/10. I'd heard about several clunky bits of dialogue, but honestly I thought the dialogue was delivered fine for a Star Wars movie, the only awkward moment being *SPOILER* when Vader raised his arms and yelled, "NOOOOOOO!!!", and even then it wasn't how he yelled it, it was just the way he raised his arms and was standing...kind of like that old Energizer bunny commercial **. But even that wasn't too bad.
In all I'd rate it a tie with Episode 4. To be honest, I feel like I'll probably not ever watch Episode 3 without immediately watching Episode 4, so I'll probably consider them a single great 4.5 hour movie spanning twenty years. Since each Lord of the Rings film is 4.5-5 hrs, I figure considering Episode 3 & 4 as one film won't drive the wife crazy.
So now Star Wars (as a new movie every 3 years) is over. I've been involved in the community during college, and for almost a decade since college, so I guess now it's time to have kids and stuff.
Star Wars is over. Long live Star Wars.
