MY BIRTHDAY CAME EARLY!


Yesterday was quite a day! The highlight was me getting some of those Bose Quiet Comfort headphones for free! It has a story behind it so here goes... As I have said before I love listening to The John Williams Show and I like to be involved in whats going on, so last week I e-mailed him a suggestion to "mix up" his Tuesday's Fun 30 segment!(Fun 30 is just a cool game like thing he does everyday at 5:30, he changes it up for every day of the week) I didn't hear back from him right away so I thought maybe he didn't like the idea of changing his show...fast forward to this Tues. John reads my e-mail on the air and I heard it, and well I felt like he left out my whole point of listener interaction! So I decided to pick up the phone and call John and clear all this up. I got through and told the producer that I wrote the e-mail that John just read, and want to clear up any confusion it caused...so he puts me on with John! I told him I wasn't trying to cause trouble I just think that more listener interaction needs to happen on his Tuesday's fun 30. I told him it is a great opportunity to have someone call in and win some prizes. He said something about winning some heartland steaks(one of the prizes) and I said the prize I want to win are those Bose Headphones you give away! His response is... I am gonna do 2 things for you Pete... 1st I am gonna look at what we can do to get some listener interaction on Tues. and 2nd I am gonna send you a pair of those Quiet Comfort Headphones! I think I said "No way" or something like that but I can't recall due to the excitement!

Man vs. Wild


Last night I watched 2 hours of this show on Discovery called Man vs. Wild it was a great show! It's about this guy named Bear that strands himself in these crazy situations and tries to survive with the clothes on his back and his knife. I don't have cable so I have never seen this show before and maybe everyone in the world knows about it but me, but this is classic Discovery material so if you have the channel check out the show! If you are like me and you don't have the channel check out the website and watch the video highlights!

DAY OFF!

I had the day off today and it was very productive... I love the feeling of accomplishment that comes along with finishing a project... We have been working on our bedroom for like months little by little, but today the end has come! I was able to finish the painting and the last two electrical things that I had to take care of and it feels good! I am happy to be a home owner and I have said it before and I will say it again... Ruth and I are very blessed by God to have such a great house!
