Mission Organization. 2007-03-12 09:41:19 I tend to get overwhelmed with day to day life at times... I'm sure everyone reading this feels the same way at times too. You plan on getting certain things done in a day, but something else always comes up and only 1/2 your "to-do" list gets done. Well, that's me too, but when I get overwhelmed I tend to just procrastinate. In the end, even less gets done than I had initially planned. Read more:Mission

To Those Who Are Gone… 2006-12-01 10:07:20 Today, December 1, 2006 is World AIDS Day.Growing up in the 80’s, I can remember it being called “the gay disease” on news reports; we soon realized it wasn’t quite so “gay”.

From the studio to the billboard… 2006-10-16 22:45:39 Another photographer posted this video as a bulletin; I thought I’d share it with those that read my blog.
This video is part of the “Dove” advertising campaign. I love the campaign, even though I must admit a couple of the models they’ve used scare me, and I’m sure it’s done wonders for their bottom [...] Read more:hellip
Be Prepared. 2006-10-16 20:17:24 (Received this via email today. Thought others could learn from it.)
A young man applied for a job as a farmhand. When the farmer asked for his qualifications, he said, “I can sleep when the wind blows.”
This puzzled the farmer. But he liked the young man, and hired him.
A few days later, the farmer and [...]
