Virginia Tigers come through

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

There has been a mass campaign to get Clemson tags in Virginia since February.  It got close this past month and emails were pushed around asking everyone to tell a friend to clear the last required number hurdle.  Come yesterday that hurdle was passed and Virginia based Clemson Tigers are on their way to getting [...]

2 weeks and what I have learned

Monday, May 26th, 2008

Diaper or food, that’s the options that you have to offer the Gods when the screaming baby can’t tell you what is wrong.  They may just be fussy, but you won’t know that until options A and B are exhausted.  Luckily, feedings hold a schedule so you can knock that one off usually.
If you accept [...]

Sci-Fi soldiers of tomorrow, today

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

I have been reading in the news of some interesting developments in the world of technology. Specifically the Super Strength Exoskeleton and the Real Life Rocket Man. Pretty cool stuff if you are a HALO fan and know of the MOJILNR Armor and how it was incorporated into the super soldiers of the [...]

A much easier approach

Sunday, May 18th, 2008

Due to the short time that I have to sit down, plug in cameras, upload pictures and everything, I have moved to the picasa/gmail approach for all of Kate’s pictures. I also have a snapfish account created if anyone actually wants to get prints.  You can get to my picasa page through the link [...]

1 week old

Saturday, May 17th, 2008

Kate is now one week old and I can honestly say that there is nothing that can ever prepare you for what a child will bring into your life. Well, I guess you could bring an angry immigrant midget into your home, that would pretty much duplicate the inability to communicate all its issues.
A [...]

Adventures of Buschman and my little bro

Monday, May 12th, 2008

The recent birth of my child seems to have been the motivating factor for another one of my good college buddies to join the blogging forums. BUSCH was always known to get into a good debate and even motivate people into using common household cookery as weapons. Venture yonder and read on his prophecy [...]

Born at 6:39 PM, 8 pounds 13 ounces, 21.5 inches long. APGAR was an 8-9.
The wife went through 3 hours of pushing only to be told that Kate would not come out with her daddy’s families head. We went in for a C-Section and had Kate Emerson 45 minutes later. You [...]

Baby Peanut, on da way!

Saturday, May 10th, 2008

So the wife went into baby labor pains on Thursday which prompted Andy 1 and I to leave work a little early. After a visit to the hospital, they decided that she was having contractions but she wasn’t dilating or anything to warrant us staying around. Friday came and went with me going [...]

For those wondering few

No baby Peanut yet.
Due date was last Saturday and the wife is peeved. Last night we played “ignore baby Peanut” to see if it would come out if we didn’t pay attention to it. It still resides in the belly today so that didn’t work. And for all of you [...]

Bargain Hunters

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

For those of you who like to pinch pennies and take pride in bragging on the prices that you paid for certain items (yes the $7 that I paid for the first Presidents of the United States album is the best bargain ever) then you will appreciate the collective gathering of bargain sites and sales [...]
