Go David!

I am a big American Idol fan. And this season I am hooked on David Archuleta! I know my family back in k-town is rooting for the other Dave, but I just can't help but disagree. David Archuleta seems so genuine. He's a seventeen year old kid who sings like a pro. He's humble, sweet, and so so grateful for this whole experience. I just love him to bits. To bits, I say.

I even swung by Murray High last Friday to see if I could catch a glimpse of the mania. It was insane the amount of people that swarmed the place. But everyone around was so happy and excited. David makes people happy. So, GO DAVID! (Archuleta) I hope that you are the next American Idol. You've got my vote.

Clark Jungle Hammock

Here is a site I did a few months ago. For any of you extreme campers out there this is the product you need. A hammock, not just any hammock but a camping hammock based after the sturdy WWII models while utilizing modern materials to create an ultra-light, compact shelter. If I was a hunter or an extreme backpacker I'd want one of these.

I had a great time designing the Clark Outdoor Jungle Hammock site and not only did I get the chance to design the website I had the privilege of re-branding the company as well as creating a brochure for them that highlights their different models. Its awesome to get to do what love every day.

I enjoy Taesya shows

There is a lot of wisdom to be found in watching Children's television. Life is simpler there. We say things loud and proud. Conflicts are resolved quickly, humans understand dogs and dragons, Moms and Dads are always right. I thought I would share a few gems that I have collected from what my daughter affectionately calls "Taesya shows."

"Don't don't don't bite your friends. Friends are our friends." - Yo Gabba Gabba

"This calls for some celery!" - Wonder Pets

"Zippers can be VERY frusterating." - Steve from Blues Clues

"Sometimes girls and monkeys think exactly alike." - Curious George

A favorite program at our house is Dora the Explorer. This show can drive me crazy, but the plot line follows the same basic outline each time, and Dora really does have a lot of good advice. First, it's important to stop and think. Second, we need to ask for help when we don't know what to do. And last, when we look back at the mountains we've climbed, we need to say, "We did it!" And then a tiny band of insects in sombreros should play "da da da!" Vamanos!
