It was a perfect day for bike ride. Now I'm ready for a beer and a nap.

I'm at Common Roots Cafe and you're not.

I'm going to go on 20+ mile bike ride today. From my house to Lake Calhoun with a few stops in between.

Rode my bike today. Got a flat tire. I guess I should have gotten that tire repair kit after all.

I must have had WAY too much fun at work to stay an whole extra hour!!!

I know it may not sound like a big deal, but I just biked 5 miles from my house to One On One. I haven't biked that far since high school.

PLEASE...for the love of God people...put some clothes on! No one needs to see all of your fun stuff at the laundry mat!

The time is now...beer:thirty.

We just had breakfast Sir.

Today's word is inventory.

It's official...iPad 2!

I'm totally geeking out and following a live blog feed on the announcement of the new Apple iPad!

Ok...I suppose I should do something productive today. (Well at least for a couple of hours.)

Ok Monday...you're now on the list...

And the snowacane begins!!!

I'm in the middle of making my world famous "Just Guessing Chili".

It wasn't me...I didn't do it...You can't prove a thing.

FYI...Pushing my buttons is NOT recommended for today. Not unless you like playing with fire, then bring it!

It's 55 degrees out and I'm driving with my windows down!

Skol Vikings

I recently submitted a portfolio to my favorite sports team of all time...the Minnesota Vikings. Long story short, my friend Leslie made me aware of the initial posting for the Team Photographer position with the Vikings. I submitted my resume and all of the info they requested. As expected I didn't make the cut. A few weeks later, the job posted again and I re-submitted my application. A few days later I received an email inviting me to the second round of interviews. In this round they wanted to see 6-12 images that included some action photos and also answer a few specific questions from a questionnaire where they wanted to know what my experience and salary requirements were. With the help of Leslie, Jen, Tobechi and other co-workers I was able to narrow down my collection of photographs to the following images.

Ultimately, the answers I provided on the questionnaire and the finished portfolio I submitted was my decision and I did not make it to round 3. Oh well...it wasn't meant to be.
