Ren Fair

It is Renaissance Fair season again. (OK so fair is almost over but there are others just starting so oh well) Anyway here are some shots From Fair...

Allan, Mandy, and Me...(Reading left to right if your confused)

This is Guard Towers A game Similar to Jenga But Played with Larger Pieces and A blade, You can only tough the pieces with your sword or dagger until they hit the Ground.

Some Sailors out on leave...(the one on the Left is a member of the Poxy Boggards)

This is my buddy Allan and his "Twin" we thought this was odd that they both had the Same Doublet, When I went on my own later I actually saw 4 different People in the same Doublet so I guess it was just Popular this year.

Invasion of the chicken pox

Well my Family has been in the house for about a week now and I have gotten more sleep than expected. but poor little Rowen has the chicken pox pretty badly. Morgan has mostly gotten over them and Brawn has mostly gotten over them and Micah has dodged the bullet so far on that score. I never considered myself bad with kids but this kind of home invasion makes me realize how easily frustrated I get with little people who do not listen when it is not convenient to their enjoyment of the day. Also when you pick up one the others insist on getting picked up as well, and my Knees are not up to that... especially when the last one on the ground tries to go between my legs. Oh well I have done my best not to kill them or me. However they will be here for another week to go so I hope I don't do anything stupid.

the Girl in the middle is our Friend Mindy who is my sisters best Friend left here in Southern California. She has been over half as long as the kids about.... she is a welcome distraction from the chaos that is kids and this final shot is a Chicky Poxy Little Rowen.

Evolution and Stupid Christians

Ok I have been listening to "Weekend Edition" a weakly news show on my local NPR Station 89.9 KPCC (Not shure at the moment where they broadcast From I am in Orance County CA... Anyway... They do month long Stories about Variouse subjects and invite listener Reviews and Opinions. This moths topic has been Charles Darwin, In respect for his 200th Birthday. A lot of the Discussion so far has been the Argument of the which is right Creationism (Sorry Inteligent Design) or evolution.

What People Have Completely Failed to Discus is the Posability that they are both Right. Conservative Christians have no trouble accepting that God is all seeing and all knowing, why can't they Acept that god might have been smart enough to "Create" Evolution. I have always been of the opinion that as Azeem said in Mel Gibsons Robin Hood when asked why he was a differedt collor "Because Allah likes Variety.".... now seriously all you need do to see proof of evolution is look at your parents Most people I know are not Identical to their parents, nor do they want to be, wich is on a very real level the ultimate Proof of evolution. I f evolution did not exist, Wheter God intended it or not, all Men would be Identical as god "Made man in his own immage" and all women would be identical. now if you ask me that is just Plain Boring.... Oh well I gues some people will just belive what they want to.. enough blather from me I am out of here...

Ok I saw This and hope to heck that Scott hasn't seen it then again I don't think it will make much difference to his plans for Uncle Drac if he does... so here goes:


Now honestly is that not just the kind of fight sequence he wants or not... (The answer to those who don't know Scott is probably yes)
