Weddings and Basketball

Becky and I had a fun time at the Celtics game tonight, even if they did get royally creamed by the Spurs. Before the game we had lunch with Becky’s folks at a nice waterfront tavern in Charlestown, then went to visit Gabi and Tom in Southie. We got to see the new cousins.

Finally, I did manage to get the pictures from Chris and Naomi’s wedding online, and you can see them here:

The Moca Wedding

Fulwider/Moca

We just got back from Chris and Naomi’s wedding, and boy are our feet tired! There was much dancing to be had at their reception. Naturally, I had my camera with me, and I had planned to put all the photos online tonight after we got back. But we decided to just turn in, instead. The pictures will be online some time on Sunday… I might get a chance to upload them in the afternoon, in between church and the Celtics game we got last minute tickets to see.

Wicked Smaht

I just found this page today:

NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts: Funded Studies

It is a list of the projects NASA is funding to develop new and interesting technologies. Some projects include the ‘Space Elevator’, ‘Programmable Plants’, and the ‘Hypersonic Airplane Space Tether Orbital Launch System’ — check it out! I don’t see ‘Warp Drive’ or ‘Matter-Energy Converter’ on there yet, but hopefully some day…

March Forth! Er… Fourth

Today is the only day of the year whose name is also a command:

“March Forth!!!”

Oh yeah, and it’s Mardi Gras, too.

Happy Birthday, Ohio!

Today, March 3, 2003, marks the State of Ohio’s 200th Birthday. Happy Birthday!

I lived in Ohio during the formative years of my life - elementary school and high school - roughly from 1985 to 1997. In 1997 I came up to the Boston area to attend Gordon College, and I officially became a Massachusetts resident in January of 2002. My sister and her husband moved from Ohio to Kentucky, and currently reside there - so now it is just my parents living in Mount Vernon.

In honor of my old Ohio home, I’ll share some Ohio-related links here:

Ohio Bicentennial Celebration Mount Vernon, Ohio Official Homepage Mount Vernon City School District — in which my mother teaches, at Dan Emmett Elementary. East Elementary School — where I spent 1st through 5th grades Mount Vernon Middle School — where I would have spent 6th through 8th grades if I was several years younger. Instead, I spent that time at the old middle school, which you will not see at the aforementioned site Mount Vernon High School — where I spent 9th through 12th grades Mount Vernon Nazarene University — formerly Mount Vernon Nazarene College, my father is a music professor here Kenyon College — small liberal arts college in Gambier, Ohio, through which I took some college classes during high school The Ohio State University — Ohio’s largest university chain, and one of the nation’s largest. Home of the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Ohio State Marching Band (TBDBITL) Columbus City Center — cool shopping center in Columbus Cedar Point — amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio, the roller coaster capital of the world

Enjoy!

Happy 030303

Vows

We’ve been delinquent in getting this up… so now we bring it to you:

Our Wedding Vows

Becky wrote the first draft while she was in class the week of our wedding… I helped make some revisions, and what you see is the final version that we spoke to each other at our wedding.
