Great Park Snow Day Was No Fun

We really enjoyed the first Snow Day at the Great Park in 2009. So we packed up the family to enjoy the same event again this year. Unfortunately it was a bust.

I’m Owning It

To those who know me, this conversation on the KROQ’s Kevin and Bean Show will sound familiar.  Let me just say, I know and I’m owning it.  I can’t help it and I don’t think Bean can either.  What can I say, we just know stuff.

The Proper Use of Christian Profanity

I like Derek Webb.  He not only understands music and verse he understands his job as a Christian artist.  I’m not at all a musician but I’m inspired as an artist when I listen to his albums. His latest album is surrounded by a bit of controversy.  His record label refused to include one of [...] Read More → Comments (10)
