Happy 25th Anniversary Kelly & Kirk!

25 years of marriage is a great story. But so is my hair in this photo. 1984 was a great time for center-part and feathering. You can thank my dad for the greenish blond hue.

Watch Kellan Horner's TV Interview

My nephew is a finalist (15 out of 2,200) in a national inventor's competition exploring innovative uses for Bubble Wrap. Kellan has been a bit of a media sensation lately in the Kansas City press, a notoriously slow news town. Kellan is predicting success. On a scale of 10? He predicts, "10". Click here to watch the TV interview. I wasn't able to embed the video on this site. ...

Jayhawk Basketball Camp

My nephew Brennan, resident of Lawrence, KS, recently attended at Jayhawks basketball camp where he took this photo. For the uninformed, that's Kansas Coach Bill Self, posing next to the 2008 NCAA championship trophy, and the net cut down after the game. For a rabid Jayhawks fan like Brennan, you can imagine the excitement...

A Lesson in Getting What You Pay For: Haircuts
