Run! Get the funk out of there! (a la Dane Cook)...

no picture this time. I think I'm afraid of text, that's why there's always a picture. it's much easier with a picture. I can hint at something with a song lyric and a picture and no one will ever notice because the picture is ten times bigger and more appealing. I use this technique in my life alot too. I tell a funny joke or say something stupid so people don't listen to me; the real me, the tired, hurting, uninspired, lonely me. it's not that i don't want you...

check out some amazing pictures of matt haughey's trip to australia last year they are amazing, even when viewed for the 300th time part one --- part two perfect listening music: Linford Detweiler - I Should Have Kept Going...

she said, i'm so sick of the stumble, stumble i've been a calling a walk she said i'm so tired of the mumble, mumble i describe as talk and now i guess it's time i lose myself to the one who found me here lyrics: Matt Wertz Yesterday Morning picture: Adam Hoover  ...

hey regan... here is the latest...don't know if you have heard or not. Nathan and ellen are both doing well. Ellen broke a bone in (i think) her hand, and nathan broke his hand, took some pretty bad lacerations on his face and legs. He also brused parts of his brain, but everything is looking good this morning. He is in the hospital here in Lubbock, or at least he was last night, and he was conscious. apparently they both fell asleep while driving back from dallas last night (they...

I have so many great memories with this guy; Nathan Spencer. My first mission trip to California, he sat outside a church one night singing all these amazing songs i'd never heard. I found out what CD it was, and it's one of my favorites to this day. When I found out about the accident tonight, everything became so surreal. Nathan and his girlfriend, Ellen, were on their way to Dallas. Somehow their truck rolled and nathan, who was not wearing his seat belt, was thrown out the windshield...

USA USA USA!  ...

greta, hook us up! Pop music star Britney Spears will make her Lubbock debut when she headlines an in-the-round concert June 14 at United Spirit Arena.  ...

we had an amazing time at paradigm tonight. Justin and the band were incredible, and for the first time in a while, i felt God speaking to me. I know he has been this whole time, difference is, i was actually listening this time. I feel like tommorow is the first day of the rest of my life. Optimism hasn't been around for months, but i feel like, starting tommorow, i can turn things around.  ...

if you guys are having problems getting into your blogs, email me and let me know. i've figured out how to fix it! update: Martha came to blog - check it out, she's amazing!!  ...

suddenly i feel you holding me sweep me away suddenly i feel your hand in mine sweep me away suddenly i feel you leading me sweet me away lyrics by: charlie hall; from the future Passion Live CD photo by: adam hoover  ...

significant ponderings by: Adam Hoover  ...

i haven't been happy in a long time. i don't know why, nor and anything about it. i just know i'm not. a friend of mine that had battled depression told me a few months ago that she saw alot of the same things in me, that she had thought when she first became depressed. she told me to be careful. how do you know if you're depressed?  ...

I'm sorry officer, but i cannot allow you to hold me down  ...

I hate my shower. Hate, hate, hate. First it's too hot, then it gets cold, and then without warning, it stops flowing entirely. Worst shower ever. I want everybody to know just how bad my shower is. To that end, I've commissioned a number of artists and writers of various talents and interests to produce several pieces on the subject. Some of them are as follows: - interpretive dance: "Getting Out of the Way of the Cold Water Very Quickly" - an up-with-science book written for ages 8-14: "How the...

i need words, as wide as sky i need a language, large as this longing inside i need a voice, bigger than mine and i need a song to sing you that i've yet to find i need you i need you to be here now to hear me now  ...

"He has a nice obituary" she said earlier this morning. Those words still eerily reside in my mind. I can't decide if it's the fact that he died, or the fact that his obituary can be deemed nice.  ...

They just interviewed an American downhill skier who had just placed 12th or so after making a mistake on one of the jumps. He said something to the effect of "i was skiing well up top, but i was going so fast that i hit the jump and flew too far." The interviewer simply said "Good Luck" in response. Good Luck in what? The man just lost and is basically going home after losing.  ...

A study by the Rand Corporation shows Dallas is the worst city in the nation for alcohol related highway deaths. Other cities in Texas did not do well in the study. Lubbock ranks sixth worst among Texas Cities in that same studyI guess the Dallas part proves true in Dennis' case. It's weird to lose friends, especially friends who drove drunk. You don't know how to feel.  ...

This Lethal Injection Is Going To Hurt The State Of Texas More Than It Hurts You Mr. Jackson, seeing as you have been found guilty of murder in the first degree by the citizens of the Great Republic Of Texas, I have no choice but to sentence you to death by means of lethal injection, to be administered by a state-appointed prison medical technician within 90 days' time. But I'll have you know, Mr. Jackson, that as harsh as this punishment may seem, trust me when I tell you that...

"I applaud the academy for having the courage to make this endorsement at a time when many people are unwilling to stand up for basic fairness. Across the nation, dozens of legislatures - including, sadly, Colorado's - have devised policies, such as same-sex marriage bans, that prevent gay people from having equal access to the rights and privileges of citizenship that are guaranteed to every American in the 14th Amendment. Part of the American dream is to meet someone, fall in love, get married and have children. The state already...

'02 and a girl there are a couple of New Years '01 pictures posted that i just found.  ...

cox's new network is sucking wind today. everything is slow, and from what i can tell, they've lost their connection with the east coast. i can't get anything from NY or Washington, but i get LA stuff just fine. I know that no internet would be worse, but it's annoying for some of the pictures on your page to not load because it can't resolve the DNS of some east coast server it's better now, however there are still a few DNS & email issues, but most sites are now...

people look with such tepidity that i wonder if they've ever been on campus before, much less in the computer labs. this woman just walked by so slowly that she was barely even moving - trying to spy the little numbers on the top of the computers. "you know they kill you if you use the wrong one," i can envision her saying. it may be because i think i'm better, cuter, and more intelligent than this entire campus put together. granted there are some exceptions; math majors, artists... that...

do not let the man hold you down greta!  ...

David comes home from first grade and tells his father that they learned about the history of Valentine's Day. "Since Valentine's Day is for a Christian saint and we're Jewish," he asks, "will God get mad at me for giving someone a valentine?" David's father thinks a bit, then says "No, I don't think God would get mad. Who do you want to give a valentine to?" "Osama Bin Laden," David says. "Why Osama Bin Laden," his father asks in shock. "Well," David says, "I thought that if a...

i made my first semi-decent floral arrangement today. normally when i work in floral i'm usually given the basic tasks that even a dolphin could do. However today, i guess they decided to let me give it a go. I made this cute.. i mean.. this arrangement in a small terra cotta pot with some leather leaf and some chrysanthemums. It wasn't great, but you wouldn't think that I made it. Five minutes after i put it in the display case, some little old hispanic man bought it. i...

i came to the realization today; that i suck at foosball. the weird thing is, i realized this without setting foot nor hand near a foosball table. weird.  ...

i wonder if this is how everyone thinks we act. i'm scared that it is. I'm willing to bet this guy doesn't even go to tech. I was at the football game this year against the f"aggies"...and I am proud to say that I kicked some A&M a$$ after the game during the "big a$$ kicking". In Texas people know A&M graduates to be stupid and in fact if you ask someone to tell you an aggie joke, they will have at least one to tell you. The stupidity rang...
