Grammar Police
Original Joe's, I find you guilty of the crime of Extraneous Apostrophe Usage.
Not Once:
Not Twice:
But Three times on one page:
The server took our menus before I could get a picture of the violation on the next page. It said something like, "Enjoy one of our hand-tossed pizza's." I hereby sentence you to return to remedial English and relearn Apostrophe usage. (And a free pizza would be nice!)

Tae Kwon Do Testing
Yesterday Robbie and Cameron tested to move up in rank. Robbie is now "Recommended Brown Belt." Unfortunately Cameron didn't finish his test. Something about not following directions, not paying attention, etc. (If you know him, this doesn't surprise you.) Here are some pics:

Memorial Day 2008
Sarah and I took the boys down to watch the West Coast Thunder motorcycle parade. Every year thousands (this year they estimate 7,000) of motorcycles parade from the Harley Davidson dealership to the Riverside National Cemetary. Here are some pics:
Robbie rolling down the hill and me trying out my new camera's burst mode:
For the second year we have seen the sweetest couple. He is obviously a military veteran. They bring out their blankets and lawn chairs and wave American Flags as the motorcycles pass. This year she stood at the curb for a while waving at the riders.
Finally, the coolest bike of the day:

My New Bass
Here she is. Sue wants to name her "Juliette" because she is green and blue, Girls Scouts are green and blue, Juliette founded the Girl Scouts. Any other suggestions? (Not that I don't like Juliette, but I like to shop around before making decisions.)
I'll post better pics soon. These were taken quickly between rehearsal and service at church today.

New Picture Blog
Yesterday I took the dive and purchased a Nikon D40 digital SLR camera. I have started a new blog to share my pictures and hopefully get some feedback about them. Feel free to check it out: Bill's Picture A Day Blog
