“Dear Joanna,

I liked your Journal.  Each day is something different.  Did you know, Elizabeth and I went to weddings too? Thanks for keeping the letters neat.

Love,
Mrs. Mayo”

 

Mrs. Mayo was the strangest teacher I think I ever had in grade school.  She had the same thing for lunch every day (tuna salad and crackers), a lisp, and she wore a microphone.  This was because she was insanely soft spoken.  This mic transmitted through the speakers scattered throughout the room.  She would turn it off when she took people in the hall to yell at them, but some times she forgot.  No matter what, as soon as she was out the door, my classmates and I would crowd around the strategically placed speakers to hear other kids get into trouble or other ‘juicy’ information.  Cause we totally cared as 2nd graders that one teacher told another that they paid off their mortgage…  overall though, old Mrs. Mayo was a good teacher, despite her strange tendencies.

I totally appreciate the fact she signed it “love”. That’s dedication.  

Grade A Fancy Tater Tots

Before, I would have accepted aaany old tater tot, but from this point on I am a man of refined tastes.

Rayburn Easter 2010

I made an Easter home movie last year and I made a new one this year. This one took long since I didn’t have school computers to make it on. I hope you enjoy it.

Fan-Cam and the Indianapolis Indians

Summer is here and since I’m in Indianapolis that means I’m working Indy Indians games. I run the Fan-Cam that shoots the events and puts you good people on the big screen. Fan-Cam is a two man operation and my good buddy Doug Fredbeck held the wireless transmitter tonight. He also documented our night on Twitter. Check out the the beauty that is Victory Field in this gallery.

Karma?

I've taken some time off from blogging. Not the biggest deal, I know, but it's been out of sheer apathy. The reason I bring up Karma is that in the past 2 days I have passed a kidney stone and had my GPS and $10 stolen from my car. I don't know what I did to deserve it but it must have been bad.
Good news is that the past few weeks have been a great time to be a Butler fan and work with the NCAA. I've never been more proud to be a Bulldog. I cut highlights last night for the Men's Hockey Frozen Four Final and the Women's hockey final. Neither were as exciting as watching my dogs fight Duke but it was still a good way to get paid.
