  I broke my femur last September falling from a tower at work. The bone went through the skin and everything. Melissa took care of me and physical therapy helped me return to work in a few months. No permanent damage. I hope to take advantage of the habits I got from strength training to take part in some kind of run this year. My first deer with my SKS in Mississippi. We ate good, healthy, fresh food. Melissa and I enjoying the nice weather with no particular place to go. Melissa taking a break. This is what happens when taking a picture of the Christmas tree while playing with the camera.  
 

 
  White fluffy stuff. White fluffy stuff, Part II. Stacy and Patricia wrapping mom a present. Me in Alabama on Highway 25. Former Vice President Al Gore dedicating a new park in an exclusive ritzy Kansas City neighborhood.  
 

 
  Al Gore, after he was on his back with a socket set for a half an hour wrenching the last pieces together. Waverly Lake, Mississippi, tossed around at nearly 40mph sideways, learning water can be hard as a brick wall. Atlanta, Georgia, at one of the 2000 ALS parties. ALS, Part II at Dave and Buster's. La Jolla, California at the Coves.  
 

 
  What you see here is a nice camera trick making a six inch wave appear to be 10 feet tall. This wave at the Coves was actually a few feet tall, but came in fast. Perfect surfing. Riding the rental car on the beach. I prefer to ride my bike over the car or truck. Bling bling!  
 

 
  A bike ride with the gang. Me, my usual self. What my bike looks like after riding home from work when it snows. Calie. I'm a mechanic. Rare photo of me in the shop.  
 

 
  Me and the girls. Michael, me, Melissa, and Patricia. Patricia and Michael. Michael playing Quake. Stacy showing her artwork.  
 

 
  Getting ready to tear up Christmas presents. Melissa and I. 7,500 pound spools of copper rod, ready to be spun into power cable and building wire. Constant Vulcanization power cable line. Its long as a football field and makes fireproof medium voltage cable. PLC cabinet for one of the plastic extrusion machines at my last job. That particular morning, I had the opportunity to repair a speed coordination problem.  
 

 
  A megawatt worth of compressors to keep the place cool.
