You heard it here first. In the future all computers will be replaced by elaborate systems of beetle shells stuffed inside our pockets like a handful of peanuts. Just ask this BYU student.
In all seriousness, go BYU research.
Wow today was jam-packed. 7:40 am brought a session at the Provo temple which I really enjoyed. Then it was off to see Mike play soccer, he’s the best, the 12 yr old genius that I mentor. Next it was tennis time with a friend of mine who played in high school, she was a tougher opponent than imagined. Next was a ride up Provo canyon with another amiga. It was totally fun, if you’ve never experienced 140hp in a 470lb machine I recommend it. The road took us up the canyon, past sundance and through a very windy set of sweet turns and eventually spit us out at the caves by mt timpanogos. Way fun!
Side note- if you’ve never been to cafe Peasan in Orem, wow you gotta go. VERY good. Quick quality Italian.
Next it was Cougar time, yup, hittin’ on single ladies past age 40 oh yeah. Not! I know you really didn’t think that. BYU Cougars that is; went to Lavell Edwards to see our beloved football team get embarassed by a no-name team. Rather lamedissapointing but hey, hang in there, Heaps, every dog has his day.
What a day I tells ya. I’m beat. Homies are at the dollar movie right now but I’m thinking to hit the sack. Deadman blogging.
Love mucho

Gotta give credit to my friend Mick on this post. I know there’s someone out there like that for someone like me 
Ever heard of Jane Clayson? She was on Good Morning America, World News Tonight, and did ABC News. She covered the 1996 Presidential campaign, the OJ Simpson trial, and September 11. Yup. I was on facebook today and saw that one of my friends, Spencer Nugent, was feature on mormon.org with a neat video story about him, and Jane had one, too! Whoa.
Very cool how she views motherhood. What do they do all day anyway? Well yo momma raised you didn’t she? I side with Jane in that momhood is important, vital stuff.
My friend Janie Thompson knows Jane Clayson Johnson (married name) really well and told me a story about Clayson’s sister once. She and her husband both got law degrees and didn’t have children until their 30’s. Mormons are usually known for getting married while preteens and having 14 children, but I guess even peculiar folks like us are different from one another.
This is in reference to start-up businesses. I’ve seen this guy speak many times and worked Omniture’s annual convention twice. I have lots of respect for him.
My friend Scott (has a rap tribute under “music” tab) edited this page during a conversation recently, ha ha.
Eric and I were at the grocery store and I saw the sweet vent car again! This is the business end, license plate blurred because it’s cool to blur things.
YES!! My long lost love is now found and we may all rejoice together. My high school Spanish teacher was both effective and eccentric. We sang this song in class and it forever emblazoned in my mind three monotone women agreeing with some soft-spoken Latino dude. What joy it brings me to share it with you now:
You got it, the love that is music. Everyone loves some kind of music. Eric and I rocked out for a couple friends tonight and it was so fun. It’s been a while since we’ve jammed so heartily. Love that stuff, really makes me want to perform again. There are local gigs to do around here, I’ll just have to dust off some of the songs I’ve written and it’s off to the races. I wonder what I could do musically if I put a few hours a day into it.

Yes it is. I was writing our weekly company newsletter and I wanted to honor what day it was. Wikipedia says it’s a day for programmers to rejoice and relish the fact that they are the most powerful people on earth (paraphrased). In other news and in honor of my dad who spoke Navajo on his LDS mission, the US once used Navajo people to speak code in WWII.
Wonder what he’s sayin?
I’m starting this post now because these games rock too much not to.
BYU FOOTBALL BEGINS HOY
This was kind of a crazy game. We won almost on penalties alone. Also we switched players in and out like crazy. It’s not often you see a team change quarterbacks over 6 times in one game.
We went to the BO (Brick Oven) afterward, good stuff. As we were waiting our homie Molly noticed that the table cloth was checkered so we had to play. Eric and I tore up white and red pieces of paper and began a checkery bout. One BO worker came up and thought it was pretty cool, he had never see customers play checkers on the table cloth before. His only question was “how are you gonna do King Me?”
Don’t get the buffalo chicken pizza; pretty gross. It was recommended to us by a friend who worked there so we ordered one. It made Eric and I feel sick after just a few bites. Celery and feta don’t belong on a pizza with buffalo sauce, I don’t know what they were thinking. So our friend got the manager to come over and talk to us about our pizza. She asks Eric “so what seems to be the problem with the pizza?” Eric says “ummm, the taste”. Ha ha. Funny guy.
They gave us a new one! Entonces we went home with a garlic chicken of goodness instead. El fin.
