Jonny Quest fans, prepare to have your minds blown: Jonny Quest Opening Titles from Roger D. Evans on Vimeo. That is five kinds of awesome. I thought I was a nerd for Jonny Quest because I have the complete series, but any guy who will build and animate action figures based on the opening sequence… Read.

taste
My Darling B and I went to Taste of Madison this year even though we hadn’t planned to. We ended up going anyway because this was the first time that the weather was so nice we wouldn’t sweat off ten pounds while we were walking around the square. Every year before this, the temps were… Read.

pre-GTOTMW
Note to future self: When attending Great Taste of the Midwest Pre-Party, do not attempt to eat a hamburger that’s bigger than your head. Really, that thing must have weighed a half-pound at least, and they piled cheese, onion rings and two strips of bacon on top of it. Realizing my mistake, I ate just… Read.

youth
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they’ve faded. But trust me. In twenty years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you. Read.
