I was thinking after my last post that I rarely give any publicity when I receive satisfactory customer service from the large monopolistic companies that control my every waking moment. While I don’t feel that they need it, really, I think from a personal standpoint we should give those public kudos when possible, if only …

A Lesson and a Memory
Last week I tweeted these messages: You know what’s a good way to ruin my day but yours more? Jaywalk across Holcomb Bridge Road at night in the rain during rush hour. January 17, 2013 No, I did not strike the elderly man, but I nearly did. January 17, 2013 I am all about giving …
Prepping for Eagle
Today I’m in Tulsa for my nephews’ Eagle Scout Court of Honor. The troop here makes a large event of their Eagle ceremonies and will have several scouts receive their ranks at the same time, so both nephews here, and one other scout, are being feted today.
Not Dead
I’m not dead. I’ve just been focused on other things. Here’s what I’m doing this morning.
It’s a Frog? It’s a Spaceship? No, It’s a Baby!
Today is a banner day! We celebrate the first picture of the newest addition to the Jenn-Bill collective! I am reliably informed that this image is of a developing human being; I will trust the experts. Jenn is due on July 26th.

Leonid Meteors Tonight!
You should go outside and watch the Leonid meteor shower tonight (Friday Nov. 16, 2012).

It all depends on the density of the stream that the Earth is passing through (see the link). …
Jenn had a Birthday!
So wish her happy birthday. She’s another year better. The wonderful cake was created by Jacob Hollis. He’s studying to be a chef. We hate taste-testing his stuff. We hatesses it so bad.
Vacation Return Advice
Today’s advice is this: When returning from a vacation where one dropped a vehicle off at the dealer to be serviced, do not forget to pick it up before the next work day. Yes, Jenn is driving me there on the way to her work. Obvious lesson learned. Carry on.
From the Archives: Ego Searches
In what will be a recurring series, I’m randomly ((Literally. Using the RAND function in excel to pick the posts to review.)) going back through the archives of the Eyebrow and blogging about things that were. Where I find something fun and interesting, I’ll note that. Where I find something I said that was sad …
Light/End/Tunnel – Corporate America and Productivity
I seem to be coming out of the 1.5 month marathon ((Only to enter into an actual marathon, har har)) that was my work schedule. I spent a lot of time working nights and weekends and I think I’m back to having a handle on it. It’s nice to be able to look at a …
