My Wedding

On May 25th I married the girl of my dreams. We were married at beautiful Three Trees Chapel overlooking the foothills by both a rabbi and a minister in a combined ceremony Loretta and I created for our special day. Loretta and I hand picked all the music, the bridesmaids' and bride's processionals, unity candle lighting and recessional. After we exchanged rings, we sang "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera to each other as an additional set of vows. I think it's safe to say there wasn't a dry eye in the house.  We exited the chapel to "This Will Be" by Natalie Cole.

The reception was also unique to us, as we had it at Q's Pub & Grille, a special place to both Loretta and me.

We were blessed to have so many of our family and friends from all around the world attend our special day. And we couldn't have asked for better weather. The sun was shining, the sky was a beautiful Colorado deep blue and temperatures were in the 70's.

Check out the video.

A Tribute to Mom

This month has triple meaning for me this year.  As we all know, next Sunday is Mother's Day; the day we all celebrate the miracle of mothers.  In addition, May 25th is my mother's birthday.  She has been gone for some years, now, and I still miss her love, caring, devotion and friendship.  Lastly, as my mother cannot be here for our special day, to honor her, Loretta and I chose Friday, May 25th to have our wedding.

This year, my tribute to all mothers for Mother's Day is a video I created to honor the life of my wonderful mother.  I hope you enjoy it.

Obama & Afghanistan Cartoons

Obama at the Bat

This clever video is a takeoff from the poem "Casey at the Bat" by Ernest Thayer, often considered one of baseball's greatest writings.  If you are a fan of baseball history, you'll like this one.

Government Contitutional Violation

This is a "must see" video of Judge Andrew Napolitano delivering a speech about freedom, our rights and Federal Government abuse of them. In it, the Judge explains the hard core truth about the Constitution and why we must fight to regain and retain our freedoms.  Check it out.
