Cardinals Win!

Downtown St. Louis just got a bit louder to ring in the 2006 World Series Champions. Difficult to not to be a fan right now. (Currently wearing my Cardinals hat from game 3)

My sister is participating in the Relay For Life with Missouri State University to support cancer research and education. Relay is an overnight event that unites our community in a common effort to support the American Cancer Society’s lifesaving mission to eliminate cancer as a major health problem. The Society works every day to prevent [...]

2005 Gateway Area MS 150

It’s been more than a week since the MS 150 ride raising funds for multiple sclerosis research and programs, and my legs have mostly returned to normal, so some sort of re-cap is required. Overall, the MS 150 went very well, but it was not without hardships (long distance aside). Friday, we headed out for [...]

Prelude to the 2005 Gateway MS 150

If everything goes as planned, tomorrow I’ll be in Columbia, MO riding in the MS 150 bike tour. Because I cave to peer pressure, the plan is to pedal 200 miles this weekend.

Thanksgiving 2004

Thanksgiving used to start in the car before holiday rush hour on Wednesday. Mom would get out of school about the same time my sisters and I would, and once home we’d claim territory in the minivan, settle in, and drive downtown to pick up Dad from work. He’d take the wheel and officially begin [...]

Election 2004

We gathered for an entertaining election results party with many TVs airing different stations and even more laptops pulling statistics, but the night wasn’t for us. When I wake up, I expect solid confirmation that we’ll unfortunately be looking at four more years of George W. Bush. At this point Iowa and Ohio are essentially [...]
