Osama Bin Laden is Dead – Funniest Twitter Quotes
Graciously borrowed from http://sheikyermami.com/
So Osama is dead… shot in the dome-piece as I heard on the radio this morning. I could hardly believe it when the stream first started coming over twitter. My first thoughts was how long have we been looking for that guy? and Ok now what.
Anyway with the flood of tweets to read about I got amped up and decided to post my favorite ten tweets of the event.
@DanaArikane:
"They should have captured Bin Laden alive and made him continually go through airport security for the rest of his life."
@rochellethestats:
"It’s like a Disney film… The Prince marries the Princess and the villain dies #justice"
@sickipediabot:
"So Osama Bin Laden is dead… Amazing what the Americans can do when the playstation network is down."
@Allwazerite:
"I bet Osama Bin Laden was killed after his personal information was leaked in the Playstation Network security breach."
@jesus:
"Sorry, you’re at the wrong gate, Osama."
@JediJunkie:
"Looks like Osama signed up for Foursquare on the wrong day."
@rudygay22:
"Ok so we killed Osama. Now all we have to do is find Wald and Carmen San Diego! Then I will be impressed!!!"
@unknown:
"Osama Bin Laden, Waldo, Carmen San Diego… #WorldHideAndSeekChampions" *
@NZAfro:
"R.I.P Osama Bin Laden – World Hide And Go Seek Champion (2001 – 2011)"
@davidbates:
"I bet Apple found Osama Bin Laden using that Remote Iphone Data… he was selling goats on ebay"
* I saw this one but could not find it again once I started writing this post… if your that person contact me on twitter.
Hope you enjoy National “We kicked his ass” day

My bosses family trip photos
So my boss took a trip out to the outer banks last week and when he came back he proudly presented his family snap shots to the group. I have a running prank with him where I will take one of his cherished memories and turn it into something a little more fun via photoshop. This time I thought I might would share it with you.

Easter 2011
Everyone had a wonderful time this weekend. We had our nephew and niece over yesterday and let our nephew spend the night for Daniel’s very first sleepover. Then we had all of our family over for an Easter lunch which consisted of ham, mashed potatoes, green beens, homemade rolls, and banana pudding. We then hunted Easter eggs and let the kids enjoy the warm weather while us adults caught up on each others lives… I hope your Easter was half as much fun.

Weekend Warrior – Home Projects Update
Over the past two years that we have owned this house we have done a lot to it. Even before we actually closed on the house we had to paint all the baseboards to comply with the type of loan we received. So far we have totally renovated the downstairs bathroom, and laundry room. Those were some tough but fun jobs. We have also upgraded several rooms with new lights, hardware, etc. in order to make the house look like we wanted it to. So this past week my wife commissioned her father George (aka the fixer) to come down and paint two rooms. My wife was very excited, as normally we have always picked paint from the $2 mismatch paint if it was close enough to the color we wanted but this time we bought top dollar high definition paint that was the exact colors she and I wanted.
The downstairs living room was to be painted about 3’ up the wall with a red merlot color and we will add chair-railing towards the end of this week in order make it look like wainscoting. I was at work while the painting was going on and I got a frantic call from Jess saying that while the paint looked fabulous the couch that we have had for more than three years looked horrendous together. She promptly told me that I will be needing a new couch and that she already had the perfect one picked out… Funny how that happened huh? I informed her that it would cost less to repaint the room than to replace the couch, she did not like that. But in the end once the paint dried she was satisfied to keep the couch in place for a while.
The second room to be painted was the upstairs. We picked up a card from the Eddie Bower collection at Lowes that had the exact bedroom we wanted so we got all of our colors from that. A dark blue wall color and khaki trim. The wall color is on and I must say it looks great. I can’t wait until next week when we paint the trim.
Next up is mounting our new 32″ LCD to the wall and sharing an exciting story about my new 40″ LED LCD computer monitor.

Monster Jam 2011
Tonight we took Daniel and his cousin Zach to Monster Jam. They both loved it. It was loud, smelled like burnt fuel and had lots of cool Monster Trucks. IronMan was the truck that stole their heart as they both love the IronMan movies. I also loved the fact that about 20 minutes of the show was dedicated to honoring our armed forces and our country.
I plan to add to this post tomorrow with lots of pictures and maybe even a video, if they turned out ok.
Goodnight for now… Daddy is tired
