The idea behind this design has been rolling around in my head for years. I always thought Starfleet would have a marine corp. It is such an essential part of our current navies. In the original series the three colors of uniform represented the shipboard functions. It made sense to me that the the Corps would have their own color. I initially thought green but switched to gray since the actual uniform color would be terrain specific…

Turkey Dripping Gravy

2 talespoons flour
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
Salt and pepper

Pour turkey drippings into a large container and let cook slightly. Skim fat from drippings and reserve. In a large saucepan over medium heat, make a roux by combining 2 tablespoons of the skimmed fat and the flour. Cook until mixture is a beige color. Slowly whisk in 2 cups of turkey drippings (substitute chicken broth if short on drippings or if a thinner consistency is desired) Stir in poultry seasoning. Over medium-high heat, bring to a boil, stirring constantly until gravy is desired consistency. Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

We tried this today and it was the best we have ever made…

A Discussion about the Apostle's Creed

I have not been attending church regularly since Connor was confirmed. I attended until then because at his baptism I made a personal vow. Upon his confirmation I believe I had fulfilled this vow.

Don’t get me wrong. I believe in God and my relationship with him is very important to me. But, I have questions and I feel these questions if asked publicly would make many people uncomfortable. I am also not good at confrontation.  These factors made it just easier to not attend.

But I find myself missing it and wonder if Amy and I can find a church home, specially with two very different religious perspectives…

The following is the Apostle’s Creed marked to reflect my current beliefs, I think.

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.  Amen.

What say you?

You Be the Judge

On Friday, April 2, 2010 my son was in an automobile accident. The accident took place in the parking lot of King Soopers on Hoover Road in Longmont. My son was driving our gold Ford Ranger. The other driver was driving a white BMW. We claim the accident was the other driver’s fault. The other driver is not returning the calls of our insurance company.

Here are four pictures of the two vehicles involved in the accident. Just from the pictures, can you imagine any way this accident could be my son’s fault?
