Adoption?

After last nights info session with Christian World Adoption at church we're getting more serious about adoption.

This morning we asked Jenna if she wants a brother or a sister

Jenna: Brother! No...Sister! Both! I want brother and sister!!!

Made my Saturday

If you didn't know that I'm a rabid Gonzaga fan you should be ashamed of yourself.
They advanced to the sweet sixteen tonight with this win over Western Kentucky. I don't care if the rest of my bracket is busted. Tonight I can go to bed happy.

Bozeman Police Reports March 9, 2009

This was actually in the Police reports the other day

-An accidental 911 call was received and upon follow up, the man who had called said “his butt dialed.”

You can also now follow the police report on twitter here

I live in Antartica

What does a guy got to do to get some warm weather around here?

Last night I actually thought to myself as I walked back to my car at 10 pm with the wind swirling across the frozen tundra and my nose hairs freezing, "this must be what it's like to live in the arctic circle."

Ok, I live in Montana, but Spring break for students at MSU starts on friday!

I'm just saying, that even though our calenders say it's spring break and it's almost officially spring it's still arctic tundra time in Montana. It was -14 last night, not including the windchill.

Shorts and flip flops might have to wait till after spring break.

A pick me up for when you're blue

I first heard this a couple of years ago and it resurfaced in our staff meeting today.

It's an audio recording of a guy from Texas leaving a phone message and witnessing a car wreck. Check it out here.

Bozeman Blast

This morning Bozeman was rocked by an explosion downtown. I drove by the area on the way to campus this morning to get a closer look at the fire and destruction. Needless to say, this type of stuff doesn't happen everyday in Bozeman.

On a sobering note our next door neighbor plays in a local band and three of his fellow band members live in the taller building in this picture and 2 of them are unaccounted for.

Update: Our neighbors friends are ok. Only one person missing still.

Square root day!

Don't forget to celebrate Square Root day today. Today is the day when both the day of the month and the month are the square root of the last two digits of the year.

The history of Square Root Day is long and varied and goes back all the way to 9/9/81. That's what Wikipedia said anyway, and I didn't want to do any math...so there.

Celebration options:
-cut some vegetable roots into squares
-bake a cake in the shape of a square root
