Moved to myspace
Hey y'all. I know I've been absent for a while. I'm still gonna be absent. I got caught up in the myspace craze, and have cheating on blogdrive! Yes, I feel bad. But I now do all my blogging (primarily posts of my photography, with an occasional poem or essay type entry) at myspace. I'd be happy if any of y'all wanna come on over and be my friend there. My myspace addy is www.myspace.com/greg67. Feel free to drop by and say hi! I miss y'all!

Shortly after I moved to Tennessee, I had a discussion with someone about faith, and he said something that summed up how I felt: "I'm pretty sure there is a God, it's just that sometimes I don't think He cares anymore." I know for the faithful, that only brings up the point - who left who first? While you're all debating that point for me, lemme get onto the actual topic of...
The Pirates are coming!
To my wife and I, the Pirates of the Caribbean was a meaningful attraction at Disneyland, long before it was a Walt Disney Pictures film. That's because not only has it always been Wanda's favorite ride, since her first trip to Big D in July of 2000, but it also happens to be where I proposed to her. Ah yes, I remember it as if it actually happened...
*soft fade*
The scene: we sit in the back row of boat number 41, gently rocking from the waves cast by the boats behind us as they plummet down the ride's second drop, the victims' screams piercing the darkness. It grows calm and peaceful as...
