Cute Signs

This sign was seen on a little trip to the city of Cheonon. This is a little pub and is supposed to be based off the 1953 movie "Roman Holiday" starring Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn. Some of the signs here are funny and some sad. The main problem that is the cause for these signs is the fact that the Korean alphabet is based on 24 letters or symbols. Some are even interchanged, like the p and the f. For example if you have had too much to eat you are not full you are pull. Understandable since english is the most confusing language in the world. Korean is pretty simple because it's very mathematical. Like in the picture above you see some Korean... the first symbol on the top looks like a 2 the sound that makes is a "l" but also is the sound of an 'r' below that you see a laying down line with a short line sticking up that is sort of an 'ah' sounding symbol. I can read the sign but I still have no idea what it means. I just thought that you guys might like to see something like this. I could fill pages and pages of signs like this. But I'll just stick to this one.

Take care you guys I miss you all and I'll write more later.

Peace out...later on.

In Memory of Bob Denver

I just felt compelled to write a little something about this. I just found out this morning that Bob Denver died of cancer at age 70. Normally I wouldn't make such a big deal but this time I thought I would make a small deal. Bob Denver also known to millions as Gilligan was a hero of mine growing up. I'm too young to have seen the show when it aired in the 60's, but I still remember coming home and watching rerun after rerun on t.v. I would love the humor of Bob and the way that he put it across to his fans. I found out that he got into acting when he found that his law degree wasn't going to do much. He got his big break when asked to play Maynard G. Krebs on the show "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis" After this he got the break that changed his life. Best known for his role as Gilligan, Bob was one of only four cast members alive. Now down to three Dawn Wells, Mary Ann (now 67) Tina Louise, Ginger, (now 71) and Russell Johnson, the professor (now 80). Jim Backus, Mr. Howell died at age 75 in 1989, Alan Hale jr., the Skipper dies at 71 years of age in 1990, and the lovely Natalie Schafer, Mrs. Howell died at 90 years of age in 1991.

This ones for you Michelle...

All about the power:

This was a picture from my final night at Tuesday volleyball while I was home for the summer. The young lady who is setting me the ball has become someone that I hold in very high regards. She is a little older than I am and married to a fantastic guy, and the two of them have six, count them six, wonderful boys. Michelle and I played in the Kansas Summer Olympics. We didn't fair very well but Michelle and I know how to have fun anyway. I really treasure my time that I get to play with her. I was only able to play three Tuesdays and yet I got to be on her team every single game. This is the woman that I would love to find sometime. She is an amazing athlete and loves the chiefs. She loves to go out and have fun and she loves her children. She actually is now going back to school to become a nurse. I have no idea where she gets the energy to do all that she does. Michelle thank you for all you do...you really mean a lot to me and I don't probably tell you that enough, thanks.
