History would know this simply as "The Play" and it's considered one of the greatest moments in college football. I can tell you that it's great TV. It's great sports. Most of all though, it's a wonderful lesson in "it ain't over, till it's over."
Dr. Who Spoof - Very Funny
Have you heard of Rowan Atkinson? Yes you have, because I know you have heard of "Mr. Bean." Well is this Comic Relief production Rowan Atkinson is "Dr. Who." Jonathan Pryce is none other than the "Master." You will also spot several other English actors you know so well. Even better, it appears the Dr Who production team was in on all the fun.
If you enjoy Dr Who you are going to love this beautifully done spoof that has lots of fun with the Dr Who mythos and its well known "over-the-top" style. Never you mind, just watch and I will explain later. (This spoof is based on "classic" Dr Who.)
The Apple Newton - The Original iPad
You know the iPad, how could you not. You know the iPhone, you see them everywhere. Over 200,000,000 iOS devices have been sold to date. Its hard not to see at least one of them daily. Most would say Apple's iOS devices are an unqualified success.
Many forget that the iPhone and iPad were not Apple's first foray into the world of personal digital assistants. In the 90's Apple had the "Newton." It was one of the very first PDA's, but it's success was far less certain. While some still exist today, the Newton was shelved by Steve Jobs in 1997 shortly after his return.
Amazingly the Newton did much of what the iPhone or iPad do today, but in ways that will seem ancient to anyone under 25. Check out the modem. The Newton could fax too, the iPhone can't fax.
This commercial will give you a very good idea of the Newton. I actually held one years ago. It was truly ahead of it's time. Just too big and too expensive for what it could do.
New Apple iPad Ad - Now
Here's the latest iPad ad, "Now." Doesn't matter if you like Apple products or not. Doesn't matter if you have no plans to buy an iPad. You just have to admire the simplicity of Apple's ads. The ads aren't flashy. The ads don't reference price or competition. The iPad ads just show what's possible with an iPad, nothing more, nothing less.

Landen's Birthday Party - Videos!
Okay, it took me the better part of the week, but here are the videos I took during Landen's birthday party. He is now 2 years old. I can't believe it.
Courtney's Birthday
Today we celebrated Courtney's birthday and Mother's Day. Her birthday isn't for a few days yet, but why not celebrate a little early.As far as presents go she got the standard fare of clothes, shoes and gift certificates. Including some shorts that live up to their description. Not so sure I'm ready for her to "grow up." The cake is a Baskin Robbins Icecream cake and it's very good. Ofcourse it figures that Courtney was just a little too full so she is waiting till later to have some. That's assuming there's any left.
