A new addition the Matthew Musing blogroll - What Was I Thinking? It is not by Dirks Bentley. It is my wife, the Lovely Joyce. Snapshots of what her life is like as a stay at home mom of four boys. A fifth boy usually is home late for dinner. But to be fair, dinner is served early in the Keough house

I’m out of my Diet Dr. Pepper phase. I now must decide between Coke Zero and diet Pepsi MAX. You may think my capitalization is out-of-whack. It is, but that is how it looks on the can. Who am I to contradict focus groups?
So far the nod has to go to Zero. DPM has so much caffeine, I act loopy. Reminds me of Jolt. Remember Jolt? It used to advertise “all the sugar and twice the caffeine”. The same slogan could have applied to the Matt & Rob Morning Show on WBGU-FM, also a product of the later half of the 1980’s.

A recent pose from the deck of a ship that does not sail. I’m wearing Buffalo Bisons hat. Should have been a Lake County Captains hat. Do you know that I named the Captains? I got the certificate and everything. I think seven others share credit.

What can I tell you? Four kids and a job that has me working from home most evenings equals little motivation to blog.
Excuses are like a-holes; everybody’s got ‘em and they all stink. So I’ll try to get back to it. And then I’ll also start a diet, and exercise..and to all those house repairs..and…..

I’m fond of Facebook. Sometimes, however, the error messages are unintentionally insulting. In the wee hours of a recent morning. (OK, just a little bit ago.) I checked to see if any of my friends were on. None were. But the message was unnecessarily harsh. Even if it is true!

If you are bored on a Saturday afternoon, and remember that you haven’t posted at your blog in a very long time, you might just need to do something silly. This was taken with my camera phone. My vanity has three mirrors, if you tilt them just right you can see life from several angles at once. It makes you think: that you need a shave and a haircut.

A camera phone picture taken at my company’s holiday party. I’m not much of a card player and I’ve only been to Vegas once. When it was announced that this years theme was a Monte Carlo night, I was just hoping I would not embarrass myself. The dealers were very kind and the fellow players were not too cutthroat, at least at the beginning. A good time was had by all. Players could cash out at the end of the evening with raffle tickets for the very nice door prizes. Joyce and tried for several prizes, and won the fast food basket.

There exists somewhere in a family member or friend’s possession a picture of yours truly wearing long hair and a fuzzy mustache. If it is ever produced and published you can compare it with this awesome look. Click on the image for a closer look.
I grew the ’stache for a good cause – Movember. The men in my office had a few laughs and our girlfriends and spouses were – uh- supportive in their own ways. I came in second in a very tight race for best mustache. I voted for the winner, he voted for me…but he edged me out by one vote. Remember this in the primaries. Every vote counts.
