Dear Mr. President
This morning, President Barack Obama tweeted the following:
@BarackObama: As the June unemployment numbers are released, it is clear we are headed in the right direction, but we are not headed there fast enough.
Thanks Mr. President. I’m increasingly frustrated with the President’s scatter brained attempt at politics. MAYBE we could get somewhere “fast enough” if he...

Holy shite! It just hit me. I had to talk a friend out of peeing on the Alamo this past weekend. After taking three friends to Pat O’Brien’s for their first time, we left after a few too many hurricanes, and you never have to “go” until after you leave the club. Well, Steve has to pee. Eddie convinces him it would be a great story if he peed on the Alamo. Melissa’s...

They look death in the eye... and WIN!
Today was the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in San Antonio, Tx. I’ve been working on this project for the past 3 months, and to see numerous co-workers come out to show their support for such a worthy cause. It’s inspiring, it’s sad, it’s passionate. Oceans of Pink as far as the eye can see.
“I’m Racing for Tia Ginnie”, “For my mom”,...

I just heard someone say “God created the world in seven days, and rested on the 8th”. I’m gonna pray for him! #FAIL

A friend of mine asked for ideas for a new tattoo. Something meaningful, words, not a picture, a quote or poem or something in that arena. It reminded me of an influential passage by Ralph Waldo Emerson that gets me through daily life. I wrote it down on a yellow piece of notebook paper from somewhere when I was a freshman in college in 1996. I still have that original, handwritten, page -...

The Circle of Life
When we’re you kids, and we looked at our father, it was like we were staring at Superman. Dad knew everything. Dad could do everything. Dad was invincible. He taught us how to tie our shoes, showed us how to demonstrate respect, transferred an amazing work ethic, showed me how to provide for myself and a family… all of which have been essential to my adult life.
I know in this...

Reliving the memories past
As my grandma moves up in age, and my aunt (her third child) is at the pinnicle of a 32 year teaching career, there comes a time in every family to decide the future. My aunt is closing on a beautiful new home tomorrow. My grandma is leaving her home of 40 years and closing this chapter of her life to turn the page on a new chapter. Today, I sit with my grandma, mom, and aunt starting to go...
My name is Iniego Montoya. You killed my my father. Prepare to die!
Glad to be out of sales Reason #82: Leaving work on time on the last day of the month!
1/2 day at work then team outing at Dave & Busters! I’m gonna win like 1000 tickets today!
I had a dream my dad was selling pot to the military retirees in his neighborhood!!! When I told him he shouldn’t do that, he told me I didn’t have to go visit him if I didn’t like what he was doing. I woke up at 3:00am PISSED OFF with him!
Winter is officially over! I just turned on the...

Lent Day 1:
Today’s Ash Wednesday. That means 40 days until Easter right? All day today, people have been talking about what they’re giving up for 40 days. I snicker every time I hear it. Not to belittle their sacrifice, but because of the Church’s quirky sense of humor. People THINK they’re giving up something for 40 days, but it’s actually 46 days. Lent starts on Ash...
What a sin! A co-worker brought me a piece of chocolate cake & I haven’t had time to touch it!

Haha… pretty cool. I just got recognized twice for a blog I wrote about this place:

Lent starts this Wednesday & all my favorite restaurants are coming up w/ fish “Specials”. God bless commercialism
My view on the new We Are the World remake? It’s not great. Just Like most movie remakes/sequels, it was much better left untouched.
Look, my study is in classical vocal music and in music theory. I analyze Bach, Beethoven, and the boys. I’m by no means an expert at modern music, but I hate that people call themselves musicians if their sound is piped through electronic means. Rap...
Doing things legit and finding obscure music mp3’s to purchase online isn’t easy.
Through college, my nickname was Yis’hak Adonai. TMEA reminds me every year-Damn Bernstein & his Chichester Psalms
I wish had knew someone to score me tickets to the TMEA All-State mixed choir concert #SATX
I think it’s awesome @drinktx welcomes TMEA AND appreciates a #Foursquare mayor. More #SATX businesses should follow!

One of my fraternity bros is proposing to his girlfriend tonight. Going over to serenade her. I sure hope she says yes!
I just got Google Buzz in my inbox - Is that going to be Twitter killer?
I’m pretty stoked right now! I just got a handwritten letter from the national president of my fraternity. For the past few months/years, I assumed only 2nd graders learning cursive handwrote anything. Even my cousins in junior high type everything for school. Its sad that something as simple as handwritting is soon to be a dying art. Since cell phones came along and text messaging became...
