| I'm a turncoat, I'd forgotten about my first social networking site, Xanga. I'd moved to Facebook and dabbled in MySpace and completely forgotten my Xanga site. So I guess I'll update briefly. I no longer work in the broadcast TV business. I work in the video ministry at my church. It's a pretty big video department with a lot going on, so I'm still busy. I've been there since September and am really loving it! It's nice to work for something with more eternal significance than somebody else's ad dollars. Hope is now a part-time adjunct professor at the Baptist school of nursing. She's enjoying that. Still pretty funny, a 24-year old professor. But she's not lecturing, just supervising students on their clinical rotations. Next update ... probably months if not years away, so until then, watch Facebook (I update it more). -Kirk

"To write or even speak
English is not a science but an art.
There are no reliable words.
Whoever writes English is involved in a struggle that never lets up even
for a sentence. He is struggling against
vagueness, against obscurity, against the lure of the decorative adjective,
against the encroachment of Latin and Greek, and, above all, against the
worn-out phrases and dead metaphors with which the language is cluttered
up." -George Orwell
"I suspect that there
is no other single profession that does more to contribute to our annoying
linguistic convolutions than advertising, unless it's politics."
-Jef Richards (1997)
"The phrases that men
hear or repeat continually, end by becoming convictions and ossify the organs
of intelligence."
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

| So Hope and I went to the lake with some of our friends and went tubing. It was awesome. I tried something new. I figured since I can do a backflip on land, I ought to be able to do on on a tube that's being pulled at 20 mph behind a boat. And as randomness would have it... it worked the first time I tried it I landed on the tube on my belly. It was really cool. But the funny part about it was, no matter how many times I tried to replicate the stunt, I busted. So here's a picture of me, getting ready then busting.
