3 Songs On Your Most Recent Ipod Playlist or CD currently in your CD player: I just like listening to Kevin and Taylor on 104.7 on the drive to and from work - - or any other time in the car. My ipod is rather empty except for the occasional design document I cart from one CPU to another. I guess I should start using it for what it was designed for, huh?

Jay is one crazy guy. He is at church every Sunday night for MYF. Some of the youth claim that "he is the funniest person I've ever met" while others think he's "just plain weird". All in all Jay is a pretty cool guy and he and his wife Jessica are expecting their fist right after the new year. 

Steve is our resident chef. He keeps us full and happy on the ski trip and helps us with our Fall BBQ. He also gives wonderful support to the youth group all year round. We can't really explain why he is looking like Ben Franklin in this picture on the left but we found it quite puzzling that every picture we have of him involves him wearing some bizzare wig. The picture on the right is from a game called "the mullet game" where you make a mullet from a swim cap and some yarn...so there he is again in a bizarre wig thing. Luckily he wears a hair net when he cooks.
