Stop….Hammer Time

Thanks Ken for passing this along.  In revolt against every girl-jean-wearing guy out there (you know who you are), I submit this:

Sunday Mind Dump

Here’s the latest from the world of Jones: Good day today at Cedar Creek.  Kim and I went with Hannah to a meeting for parents of rising 6th graders.  That’s just blows my mind…I’m about to have a middle schooler.

Chick-fil-A

I worked at Chick-fil-A during my senior year of high school and college.  I’ve got to admit: after working there all those years, I never got tired of the food.  Still love it to this day.  Got to have my Chick-Fil-A chicken sandwich with waffle fries (polynesian sauce for dipping) and diet coke…and a brownie [...]
