Wow. I would have to say that I agree with those. I think John and you do an extremely good 'job' at those.

on a side note, I think I was calling you right in the middle of your conference...and John, and Karl...I hope I didn't interupt. :)

in Christian School, Public School, or Home School? on BetterThanBlank
Alex,

I'm by no means an expert and will be asking the same questions in the next few years, but here's my two cents...from Bahrain...again.

I grew up in public schools and if I hadn't goofed off most of the time I think I received an excellent education. That's if I hadn't goofed off! Anyway, the plus side, it's much cheaper and you get a lot of interaction in "reality."

We are very lucky to live in a very blessed valley. Every where you go, you see NOTW, or a bumper sticker or window decal for a church. Now I know that doesn't mean they're automatically Christian, but it's saying something that you might not see in many other communities. Believe me, I've been to a few. If we were in LA, Chicago, or Bahrain, I might select a Christian school. (Good luck finding one in the middle east.)

With the back ground and network that you have, I think that the ability to instill Christian values and morals will be so easy. Knowing Miles, he will be so receptive and I think will grow into a wonderful, well educated, person.

We do have one person who is home schooled and I don't think that he benefited all that well if you know what I mean. Obviously we're in the military and the environment is tough, but this kid just doesn't get it. I don't know how hard we try. He once said he was a Christian youth leader, or maybe a Christian worship singer, but I don't know. Sometimes I think he's just trying to make me like him. Anyway, he was home schooled and just has no concept of reality. Now, I'm not saying that Miles or Macy would every have this problem, but one thing this kid could have used was some interaction with other people.

Well, those are my two cents.

Hey Man, looks interesting. S I take it you didn't want to come pick up my Electric kit. :-) I thought that might be a hard sell.

Looks interesting. I agree with Fred. Might want to put a huge fan in there.

Hey Alex,

You know I'd love to be in your blog roll, but you know how often I'm able to update these days. Anyway, sitting in Bahrain at the local Starbucks. So...If you leave me up, great. If not, I'll wait till I get back! :-)

Later bro...

Later brotha!

in Confrontation & Hot Buttons on BetterThanBlank
We do know that you do need to listen to Jen. (That's my disclaimer so that she doesn't kick my butt. Wait, I'm deployed the next six months or so...hmmm).

I'm glad you were able to nip everything in the bud with your confrontation. Usually if it's approached with thought, and calmness, everything turns out very well. That's a quality that most Military Leaders overlook. Most say that it is the Military, etc. Personally, I think there is no excuse, unless all other means have been exhausted. God knows I've been there, done that, been wrong, and moved on.

Sorry your buttons got pushed. Once again, it's one of those things where it has to be approached calmly (as much as one can), address it, and move on. If you really have to, go out side and scream and kick something. God also knows I'm WAY guilty of that. LOL, wait, so do you! I'm sure that door is fine...Anyway, key is, stay calm! Thankfully I have a forgiving and understanding wife as well. I think that's why our wives get along so well!

I followed your tips to the "T." I wouldn't ever post a bunch of photo's of my family or ever talk about them on my blog, ever!

So I just posted a bunch of photo's on my blog of my family. Other then the horrible layout (thanks blogger), it follows your secrets to the "T."

Okay, now that I've calmed down a bit...I won't disown you. :-)

I know you could have picked out the cheezy lines and focused in on them, but we thought it was a really good movie. You've got to remember that Transformers is more for the Kid in us, not the adult that looks for every glitch and mistake.
