the chronicle of Brooks first year
my dad the oil fighter
Many of you know my dad, many do not. Many don’t know that he’s been down in the Louisiana gulf coast area battling an oil spill as part of his “retirement.” Dad’s reputation got him a job offer from some company that was subcontracting for BP in the oil spill clean up & containment. Needless to say retirement was a bit boring for dad so he jumped at a chance to do some work. He’s been coordinator for some 300+ workers (I’m sure that’s a smaller # with the spill capped). Anyways, he sent a picture of him in his glory. I like it.
@stickysheep : new venture from the brilliant mind of @johnwellis & myself
john ellis and i started hanging out about two years ago and chatting on all things business, church, marketing, web, technology, family and more. eventually some of our thoughts and conversations about the business church marketing technology stuff had us thinking, "we need to write this stuff down. there might be two or three people who want to hear this." so we started writing a book (scary i know). as we are developing the book we have gone and launched "sticky sheep" our concepts home portal. so if you are interested in some of the new ventures of me and/or want to get a glimpse of this collision of business and church then subscribe. i plan on doing a weekly wrap up, such as this, of what have been my musings over there as well.
this week in sticky sheep
- sticky paper is great, but it's getting seen that is the stickiest

you can also check us out on facebook & twitter of course.
my first baseball game
Brooks loves his “ba” = ball so he’s enjoying his first baseball game. The Nashville Sounds vs the Colorado Sky Sox.
here comes the flood (do-do-do-do) here comes the flood
It seems that all the flash flooding and heavy rains up on the plateau are flowing down into Nashville (much like te Nashville flood waters flowed up into Clarksville a few days later) and we are prepping for some more flood stage level river waters. This is the set of baseball fields across from the All American Pest Contol offices. They ate already under water but during the floods inay there was about 25 more feet of water. Check the news Nashville folks for updates.
