Sports Clothing

This may be best on Breaking the Tustisthreshold, but again maybe a larger discussion would be good. We think it would be good to have a family sorts design for jerseys, t shirts etc. Maybe even have them for a family event at tustifiesta. I have heard that some have done research and Sam has artists talent.
How about some reports and discussion about colors, themes, team name if one? Maybe a compilation of thoughts and ideas will come up with a good idea......
Thoughts?

my new leather hobby

It all started when Trevor would come to visit Jenn and I here in San Antonio. Between his out-loud-laughing at gut-splitting phone texts with his girlfriends and surfing youtube, he also would occasionally crack open up a composition book, similar to this:

Soon after seeing Trevor coolly take notes in his composition book, I started writing my seminary lesson outlines in one. I liked them because of the smaller size, the ease of use, and the pages didn't get ripped out as easily. However, there was one problem. The covers for most brands aren't very pleasing to the eye. In fact, I hated the way they looked. I started using these notebooks at work but they didn't come off as very professional-looking. Regardless, others at work started using them and now they are ubiquitous at the office.


Well, I decided to do something about the way their appearance. I jumped online and saw a couple of sites listing them for
a crisp $50 to $80. Well, after much experimentation and forum dwelling, I have come up with my own finished product using some leather, stitching, dye, finishing, and elbow grease. I messed up on few things and it's not as cool as henna tattoos but you gotta start somewhere.

For Sanity's Sake

I'm posting this in hopes of knocking the Seinfeld post off the front page. It was a good post by Trevor, don't get me wrong. I just can't handle it anymore. The video auto-play has steadily stripped away my sanity one piece at a time. In his own self-condemning words that we all now so well: "This is not funny."

Yum!!!

You know you are in Anadarko when the lunch menu is: fried okra, fried squash, and crummies.
